SWLC PERFORMANCE OPEN DAY 2026 🚗
🏁 Saturday 26th September
This year we’ll also be raising money for The Primrose Foundation, supporting the Primrose Breast Care Centre at Derriford Hospital. 💗
It’s always a great day, so come along, grab something from the BBQ, have a wander

Every colour, material and accent is entirely down to you. Whether your inspiration is from a source reference or entirely personal, everything about your Series 1 is a reflection of yourself.

Four hundred horsepower from a 3.5-litre V8. Five manual gears. Little more than 1,100kg. On the right road, the combination matters more than any one figure.
The Series 1 was designed around the driver – and for days like this.

Lotus just built a fast SUV with a hybrid system unlike anything else out there - and Richard Hammond got behind the wheel to find out how it works. 😳
The new Eletre X - 939hp, 0-60 in 3.3 seconds, up to 745 miles (1200km) of range and a completely different way to get power to the road.
Head over to the DriveTribe YouTube channel and watch the full video! 👉 youtu.be/x9TsXkN8-Qs

Lightness isn't a statistic. It's the reason the steering feels alive, the brakes feel immediate and every input feels natural.
At 1,107kg DIN, the Series 1 achieves performance through efficiency rather than excess.

Couple more vids from @EncorDesign S1 drives yesterday. I’m not pushing the car hard at all but it still sounds (to me!) so cool.
An unusual mix of plane crank V8, turbo woosh and dump valve hiss.

The Encor Series 1 makes a special appearance with Ledmore Private Members Club, previewed inside the Old Fire Station clubhouse alongside an original Lotus Esprit S1.
No stage. No script. Just the car, the team and open conversations.
More to come.

Lightweight philosophy in motion.
The Encor Series 1 remains deep in its testing programme, refining the details that define how the car feels, on track and on road.
