Following on from the take over of Lotus’s parent company Proton by DRB-Hicom, the dismissal of CEO Dany Bahar and that the Future Cars section, which featured the five ‘New Era’ models first shown at Paris in 2010, has been removed from from Lotus Cars website.

Despite news that DRB-Hicom are looking to cut costs and focus on profitable areas at Lotus does not necessarily mean that all of the ‘New Era’ cars have been cancelled. It would appear however that DRB-Hicom are extending the policy of not talking about Lotus products which are not yet available to order which saw the rumoured appearance of the Esprit at the Goodwood Festival of Speed cancelled.
