Lotus Esprit, A Reimagining of the Brand!

Lotus Esprit  In this episode, I cover the Lotus Esprit, A supercar built by Lotus in the 1970s that was designed to change the image of Lotus, from a kit car manufacturer to a supercar builder. Although the Esprit started out fairly underpowered, through the generations this car would start to make big power, eventually using a twin-turbo V8 engine capable of 500 hp. This car was the catalyst for Louts' transformation.   Thanks for Listening!  Music:  District Four by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3662-district-four License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Monkeys Spinning Monkeys by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4071-monkeys-spinning-monkeys License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Guiton Sketch by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3834-guiton-sketch License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Sneaky Adventure by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4383-sneaky-adventure License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Truth of the Legend by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4551-truth-of-the-legend License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Too Cool by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4534-too-cool License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Sources:  https://www.automobilemag.com/news/lotus-esprit-history-generations-specifications/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotus_Esprit https://silodrome.com/lotus-esprit-history/ https://www.hagerty.com/media/people/know-your-designers-giorgetto-giugiaro/ https://www.encycarpedia.com/us/lotus/76-esprit-s1-coupe http://www.lotusespritworld.com/EGuides/ETechnical/V8_Engine_Spec.html https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/cars/article/lotus-espirit https://burnsstainless.com/blogs/articles-1/air-to-water-intercooler-tech-101-what-it-does-and-what-you-need#:~:text=At%20its%20essence%2C%20an%20intercooler,sent%20through%20the%20other%20side.
