Lotus has unveiled the Emira Clark Edition, a striking tribute to motorsport legend Jim Clark, limited to just 60 cars in select global markets. The special edition debuted at the 2025 Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix, marking 60 years since Clark’s historic 1965 season — when he won both the Formula 1 World Championship and the Indianapolis 500.
Developed in collaboration with the Jim Clark Trust, the Emira Clark Edition draws design inspiration from the iconic Lotus Type 38. It features a bespoke Clark Racing Green finish, black roof, silver mirrors and a yellow racing stripe flared around the front. Yellow exhaust pipes, a blue-anodized fuel filler cap and hand-painted pinstripes accent the exterior, while Clark Edition branding nods to his legacy.
Inside, the driver’s seat is upholstered in red leather and Alcantara, contrasting with a black-trimmed passenger seat — a nod to the asymmetrical racing interiors of the ’60s. A wooden gear knob, tartan-detailed Jim Clark badging and carbon fiber door sills complete the motorsport-themed cabin.
Built on the Emira V6 platform, the car delivers 400 hp from a supercharged 3.5L V6, paired with a six-speed manual transmission and limited-slip differential. Lotus’ Driver’s Pack adds track-focused features like sports suspension and hydraulic steering. Priced at £115,000 GBP in the UK (€140,000 EUR in Germany), the Emira Clark Edition celebrates Lotus heritage and honors one of racing’s all-time greats.
