Wat staat er ook al weer op de motor, Ecotec!
Key changes have been made to the fuel system, the engine calibration and the four fuel injectors mounted on the inlet manifold have been enlarged. Two additional fuel injectors have been fitted at the supercharger inlet to increase the amount of fuel being injected in to the engine under higher engine loads and to further cool the charge air prior to combustion.

The beauty of ethanol is its ability to produce more power in the engine than with conventional petrol / gasoline fuel. The Lotus Exige 265E now produces 264 hp at 8,000rpm, and 184lb-ft of torque at 5500 rpm, up by 46 hp or 21 per cent and 25lb-ft or 16 per cent over the standard petrol / gasoline Exige S. With the total weight of approximately 930 kg (unladen), the power to weight is approximately 283 hp / tonne. Ethanol has less stored energy per unit volume than gasoline so the fuel economy is less, however as E85 ethanol is 85 per cent sourced from renewable bio matter, there is a net reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2)
