Lotus

Lotus has built lightweight, driver-focused sports cars since Colin Chapman founded the company in 1952. The philosophy has always been simplify and add lightness — and models like the Elise, Exige, Evora, and now the Emira prove that less weight beats more horsepower on a canyon road. Rent a Lotus in Southern California and drive the brand that prioritizes feel over force on the best driving roads in the country.
