First Look: Lotus Emira - can this 400hp AMG-engined sports car rival the BMW M2 and Porsche Cayman?

Meet the new £60k, 400bhp Lotus Emira. Yep, it’s another Lotus rebirth. But thanks to the exciting new Emira, this one feels very real.

Therefore, it surely qualifies as an instant classic. But will this £60k two-seat 400bhp sports car be able to see off the tough competition from Porsche’s Cayman, the BMW M2, Alpine A110 and Toyota Supra?
