Lotus is synonymous with racing cars and it came out with an amazing vehicle in the 1960s. It showcased such smooth handling and racy styl-ing, combined with raw and powerful performance, that drivers felt they were behind the wheel of a formula machine.
Enter the red-hot Lotus Elan, initially designed and released by Lotus Cars in 1962. In the mid-1950s, the company obtained the expertise of Ron Hickman who was famous for inventing the WorkMate® for Black & Decker.
