There will only be 35 examples of the Scura produced.
High gloss Phantom Black contrast the matte black, and a carbon fiber front splitter, oil cooler inlet vanes and rear spoiler give a high-tech accent.
Inside, the Scura gets carbon fiber trim, reducing the weight, which Lotus says will allow the Scura to dash to 100kph in 4.1 seconds.
“The Exige Scura is a stunning vehicle which offers an adrenaline fuelled experience and is a real head-turner! Our Exige customers choose Lotus because we deliver thrilling performance and dynamic design and this special edition fits the bill on both counts,” said Luke Bennett, Director of Lotus Cars.
The car will go on sale in the UK shortly and cost around £45,000 (NZ$97,600).
