Following on from its Goodwood Festival Of Speed debut, the Lotus 3-Eleven has wrapped up development testing at the Nurburgring ahead of the car’s scheduled February launch.
Lotus covered over 1900 kilometres during the test session at the fabled 'Ring, honing the 3-Eleven’s handling and in the process recording a 'compiled' lap time of 7:06.
That time however doesn’t come from a single lap.
Unable to run closed testing at the track meant Lotus was forced to share the circuit with other users - the drawback there being that encountering slower traffic can add seconds to a lap record attempt.
