On the 28th January 2013 Lotus launched their new car the E21 and the new car performed well at the Jerez testing sessions in Spain. The chassis is made from carbon fibre and aluminium making it strong but also light in weight – including driver, cameras and ballast the E21 weighs only 642kg. The car is powered by a Renault RS27-2013 engine, a 2.4 litre V8 with a displacement of 2400cc and power output of 750 bhp.
