Lotus gets ready for multi-model launch

Lotus is pretty tight-lipped about what its plans are these days, though it is clear its ambitions are great.
"There's going to be a lot happening at Paris," Mr Doyle says - though exactly what it will unveil at the biennial motor show in October remains secret.
But one thing is clear.
"We're going to expand the model range quite significantly," Mr Doyle says.
The car world is awash with rumours about what Lotus will do and if expectations are met it will certainly create waves.
Lotus is expected to unveil four new concept cars, a notable number given that nothing significantly new has come from the company in more than a decade, with the obvious exception of the recently launched four-seater Evora.
'Old' and 'New' Lotus:
The concepts expected to be on display at the Paris motor show are said to be a mixture of "Old Lotus" and "New Lotus".
"Old Lotus" models might include an updated and perhaps more comfortable version of the Lotus Seven, which was built between 1957 and 1972, as well as a new version of the Esprit supercar, which was built between 1976 and 2004.
