Lotus Exige Bucket Seat Guide
The Lotus Exige story (00-21)...
A British two-door, two-seat sports car made by Lotus Cars since 2000. Originally a more-hardcore coupé version of the Lotus Elise roadster, since the Series 3 the Exige has been the larger-engined model of the family – using a V6 engine in place of the Elise’s straight 4 with convertible versions of both available.
Once you start using your Lotus Exige for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support.Â
On cornering, you may find yourself holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position yourself after the corner.Â
None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand.Â
We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Lotus Exige seat guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
