\nHam and eggs. macaroni and cheese, chocolate and bacon (a new personal favorite!). Some things just naturally go together. Such is the case for Lotus<\/a> and Cosworth. In 1967 when Keith Duckworth, Mike Costin and Ford<\/a> got together to create the DFV Formula One engine, Lotus was the first team to install it in a car. Ultimately, the DFV won 12 world drivers championships and 10 F1 constructors titles.<\/p>\n

Lotus and Cosworth are now back together again working on high-performance engines. The current-generation Lotus Elise, Exige and Evora are all powered by Toyota<\/a>-derived engines, and now Cosworth will be uprating these engines for new Lotus road and race machines, starting with the new Evora Cup car. The GT4-class Evora is propelled by a 400-horsepower 4.0-liter version of Toyota’s V6 engine with dry-sump lubrication all supplied by the engine specialists. We can’t wait to see what Cosworth cooks up for the new Esprit… if and when it ever arrives.<\/p>\n
