About this car
The 2026 Lotus Emira Jim Clark Edition is a limited-production celebration of motorsport legend Jim Clark, with only 60 examples built worldwide and 17 allocated to the United States. Finished in Clark Racing Green with painted Team Lotus Racing livery, this coupe pairs its exclusive exterior with a Clark Edition Duotone Red and Black interior. Powered by a 3.5-liter supercharged V6 that produces 400 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, the car is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive through a limited-slip differential.
Performance figures include a 0-60 mph time of 4.2 seconds and a top speed of 180 mph, with a curb weight of approximately 3,212 lbs. The Jim Clark Edition rides on Sport Suspension and Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport tires, delivering the sharp steering and balance that define Lotus sports cars. Distinctive exterior details include silver mirror caps, a Full Exterior Black Pack excluding the mirrors, 20-inch ultra-lightweight forged alloy wheels, red brake calipers, and a machined aluminum fuel filler cap with blue anodized center.
Inside, the cabin features a Clark Edition Duotone Red and Black steering wheel, an exclusive wooden shift knob, KEF Premium Audio, privacy glass, and bespoke Clark Edition luggage. This low-mileage example with 947 miles represents one of the rarest and most collectible Emiras produced.

The Lotus Emira, introduced in 2021, is a mid-engine sports car and the last internal combustion engine model from Lotus before transitioning to electric vehicles. Production began in 2022, with Lotus targeting an initial run of several thousand units, though exact figures remain undisclosed as production continues. The Emira is offered with two engine options: a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from AMG, producing 360 horsepower, and a 3.5-liter supercharged V6, delivering up to 400 horsepower. Performance highlights include a 0-60 mph time of around 4.3 seconds for the V6 variant and a top speed of 180 mph.
For exotic car collectors, the Emira holds significance as Lotus's final ICE sports car, potentially increasing its future rarity and value. The limited-run "First Edition" models, launched in 2022 with bespoke styling and enhanced features, are particularly sought after. While current market values hover around $75,000 to $100,000 depending on configuration, long-term appreciation is speculated due to its historical context. The car's lightweight design, weighing under 3,100 pounds, and its focus on driver engagement further appeal to enthusiasts seeking a pure analog driving experience in a modern package.
