Europa and Elise almost have the same chassis, and the wheels are the same. But Europa looks a lot bigger with a higher roof and it is 4 inches longer than the Elise which gives it a road presence.
The Europa S takes a place in the self with the rest of the accomplished cars in its category.
The Lotus element of style comes out clearly in the Europa S with a side scoop, fuel filler cap, and the outer looks on the whole. However, the Europa S is not a product that has been completely based on the Elise and should not be misunderstood that way.
