Lotus Evora Sport 410

The Lotus Evora Sport 410 is a high-performance version of the Lotus Evora 2+2 sports coupe.

Description

The Lotus Evora Sport 410 is the result of Lotus’ philosophy of continuous improvement. With a lower centre of gravity, and a kerb weight slashed to just 2921 lb (1325 kg), the car provides an impressive 309 hp/tonne, and builds on the achievements of the excellent Evora 400. In addition to boosting straight-line speed, the significant reduction in mass has allowed sharper, more agile and intuitive handling - with even greater accuracy and feel.

Complementing the weight savings is a higher-output version of the supercharged, 3.5-litre 6-cylinder engine, developed through the Lotus 3-Eleven project which has beaten Nürburgring records. As a result, the car boasts 410 hp (306 kW) at 7000 rpm and 310 ft·lb (420 N·m) of torque at 3500 rpm.

The high-performance, carbon fibre components have played the single biggest role in the evolution of the Evora Sport 410. These include front splitter, roof panel, tailgate, and rear diffuser as well as race-derived sports seats and a revised front access panel. The one-piece carbon tailgate incorporates a louvered section, inspired by some of Lotus’ most-famous heritage models, and together with carbon rear quarter-light panels help provide the car with a sleeker, fastback-style trailing roofline. These changes have also improved the car’s aerodynamic downforce by 15% with no increase in drag.

The car’s reduced curb weight has allowed the recalibration of the suspension, with improved geometry and completely revised damping, as well as a ride height 5mm lower than the Evora 400. As a result, handling is sharper, along with better body and roll control, yet ride comfort and composure is retained. Ultra light-weight, 10-spoke forged aluminium wheels, and optional Michelin Cup 2 tyres, complete the car’s dynamic revisions.

Summary

The Lotus Evora Sport 410 was added in the Car Blueprints Update as a high-end Class B R&D car with the following statistics:

• Starting rank: 1307
• MAX rank: 1549 (+242)
• MAX+PRO rank: 1695 (+146)
• Tuning Kit bonus: +50
• Stock to MAX+PRO rank difference: 288
• Nitro Efficiency: 6/11/16

Performance

The Lotus Evora Sport 410's performance is built on that of the Savage Rivale GTR, albeit more nitro-efficient and with a slightly lower total speed.

The Lotus Evora Sport 410's acceleration, while not the best in its class, is still very fast, as it accelerates to its maximum speed faster than the Falcon F7 and Kepler Motion. As the Evora Sport 410 has a high nitro stat, despite gaining more speed from upgrading the top speed than upgrading the nitro, it is somewhat lacking, as it can only top out at 237.8 mph (383.0 km/h) at MAX+PRO with a Tuning Kit. The Evora Sport 410 is much more nitro-efficient than normal, with 6/11/16.

The Lotus Evora Sport 410 also boasts responsive and sharp handling/drifting capabilities, although due to its low top speed stat, it isn't as fast as most other Class B cars ranked above 1660 when drifting.

The Lotus Evora Sport 410 has a total speed of 282.2 mph (454.4 km/h) at MAX+PRO with a Tuning Kit; while higher than the McLaren MP4/8's 278.6 mph (448.7 km/h), the MP4/8 has far better acceleration and handling to make up for this difference in total speed.

Usage

Unfortunately, due to the car's low top speed and slower acceleration compared to the McLaren MP4/8, the Lotus Evora Sport 410 is merely a collector's item. At MAX+PRO, the Evora Sport 410 is unable to effectively take on the Class B kings, not even the TVR Sagaris and Lamborghini Estoque (in most cases). At best, the Evora Sport 410 can only compete with the Lamborghini Asterion and Savage Rivale GTR.

In Multiplayer, even the best Multiplayer-friendly upgrade configurations available do not offer the Lotus Evora Sport 410 much competitiveness against the Chevrolet 2016 Camaro SS, McLaren MP4/8, Audi R8 e-tron Special Edition and Apollo Intensa Emozione.

Price

According to internal game files, the Lotus Evora Sport 410 had an original buying price of 7250 7,250, which made it the most expensive tokens-purchasable Class B car in the game after its release. Alternatively, the car can be assembled for 10 of its Legendary-rarity Blueprints. Assembly takes 10 hours but can be skipped for up to 390 390. It is part of the 43rd Multiplayer Season, Holiday Rush Season 4, as a Champion League reward. Players who already own the Evora would win a Free Class A Upgrade instead.

As of the Sixth Anniversary Mini Update, the car no longer requires Blueprints to be assembled and has a full purchase price of 4750 4,750.

As of the 2019 Spring Update, upgrades cost 2400000 2,400,000 while Pro Kits require 800000 800,000, 42 of each Class B Part, 30 Early & Initial Techs each, 52 Mid-Techs, and 72 V6 Engines.

Research & Development

Main article: Research & Development/Lotus Evora Sport 410

The Lotus Evora Sport 410's Research & Development event was launched on April 25, 2017, as the 20th R&D event in the game, after the Sbarro Sparta's EDD. It was revived as the 60th R&D event on February 22, 2019, as part of the Fast Lane Update's Asphalt Moments Series, with a prerequisite of VIP Level 3. It has a total of 44 Tests spanning 4 Labs with a time limit of 9 days once the event is started.

Asphalt 9: Legends

The Lotus Evora Sport 410 now appears as a low Class C car with the following statistics:

• Stock rank: 1,086 (20 BPs)
• 1* rank: 1,411
• 2* rank: 1,813 (20 BPs)
• 3* rank: 2,123 (50 BPs)

The car is available in a unique TIM (an Italian mobile operator) livery in addition to standard colors.

Usage

At 3*, the Lotus Evora Sport 410 can be useful in Class C career until Class C Elite. As a British vehicle, it qualifies for the British Beasts season and all of the "Euro" seasons. It can also be used in "7 Escapes" and "Exotic Beasts". At 2*, it is on par with a 2* Dodge Challenger SRT8 and a 1* Dodge Challenger 392 Hemi Scat Pack and can be used to effectively reach Gold League. It is recommended to upgrade this vehicle rather than the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage, as it is about the same price yet performs much better in most aspects.
