Engineered light
The current Elise Cup 250 weighs-in 14kg lighter than its predecessor. The adoption of carbon fibre, titanium and aluminium has helped reduce mass from crucial areas benefitting acceleration, braking, cornering and weight distribution. The Cup 250 features, as standard, a Lithium-Ion battery, carbon race seats, ultra-lightweight motorsport forged alloy wheels and a polycarbonate rear screen. Further weight savings can be made by ordering the beautifully finished, optional Carbon Fibre Aero Pack. This includes a front splitter, rear wing and bargeboards (-3.7kg), hard-top (-3kg), front access panel (-1.1kg), roll-over hoop cover (-0.7kg) and engine cover (-3.3kg). Either way, Cup 250’s radical aerodynamics modify airflow over, under and around the car to generate 148kg of downforce at 149mph. What you’ll notice is exceptional high-speed stability and even keener turn-in.
