Lotus mieten Schweiz
Rent a Lotus Elise and drive it yourself with unlimited kilometers! One like no other, the Elise from Lotus. Even in the standard engine version with 120 hp, this small mid-engine sports car is more than adequately powered thanks to the just over 700 kg. Our 111S model got a power injection to 145 hp ex works.
Low weight, low center of gravity and mid-engine are the guarantee that this athletic sports car pulls through the curves like a scalpel. The steering, naturally without power assistance, feels like an extension of the driver's arms - the Elise goes exactly where the driver aims.
"Adding power makes you faster on the straights; subtracting weight makes you faster everywhere" Colin Chapman
There is more Lotus DNA in no other modern sports car than in the first-series Elise. If you want it even lighter, you can rent a Caterham Super 7 or a Morgan Threewheeler...

History
Romano Artioli was Chairman of the Board of Bugatti in the nineties and shaped the "Italian era" with the EB110. In 1993, he took over Lotus, then owned by General Motors. The name Elise was derived from "Elisa", Artioli's granddaughter. She sat in the car at the 1995 Frankfurt Motor Show for the unveiling of the Elise. Or rather, she stood, because she was only 3 years young. Today, Elisa drives her Elise around the world - her adventures can be followed on Facebook and Instagram.
The small, naughty Elise made an impact in 1995 like no other sports car. The aluminium chassis, which weighed around 70 kg, was glued instead of riveted, resulting in high torsional stiffness. The 120 hp from the 1.8 litre four-cylinder engine did not look powerful on paper, but allowed the 700 kg lightweight to play in the supercar league. The classically designed plastic skin has lost none of its charm to this day and is pleasing to the eye from every perspective.
In 2001, Lotus presented a revised model with the S2 (Series 2), with later evolutions adding more power, but also more size and weight. The Lotus DNA can be experienced in every Elise model, but among purists the first series is the most desirable.

We have fallen in love with the Elise! It sticks to the road like glued, and every bend brings a big grin to our faces. The driving pleasure is huge and immediate, the reduction to the essentials increases the enjoyment. At the same time, fuel consumption is astonishingly low, less than 7 liters per 100 kilometers in a sporty driving style over numerous mountain passes. The comfort is absolutely sufficient, one melts into the sports seats and feels connected to the speedster. Reservation, pickup and return worked absolutely smoothly, gladly again at any time!

Great, fun vehicle and surprisingly easy to drive. Getting in and especially out requires a bit of practice if you want to look suave but can absolutely be achieved Bond-style!
The Elise is a fantastic car, one of the best handling experiences around. We loved every minute although be warned there is no Climate control so above 30deg (even with the roof off and windows down) gets a bit hot onboard. Wouldn't hesitate to rent again but maybe during a cooler period than August.
Great service by the RentaClassic guys, really couldn't be easier.
I have rarely experienced such a smooth organisation and handling of a rental request! The Elise was perfectly prepared for the trip. It is hard to put into words what driving pleasure this car conveys. It lives on what is not on it. I will gladly rent it again.
