Precision meets Portugal.
The Encor Series 1 takes to the Serra de Monchique for a special customer event, bringing its remastered design and engineering to the Algarve.
The shape that defined the Lotus Esprit, carefully preserved.
The Encor Series 1 retains the purity and proportions of the original S1 design, recreated in carbon fibre and refined with the precision of modern engineering.
An icon, respectfully remastered.
Recently, the Series 1 made the journey to Sywell Aerodrome to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the 2Excel Group, with proceeds raised going to a well-deserving charity.

Soaking up the last of the summer sun.
This summer has seen the Series 1 travel across parts of Europe, with it drawing interest everywhere it goes.
But the year isn't over yet - there's still more to explore...
#Encor#EncorSeries1
Four hundred horsepower from a 3.5-litre V8. Five manual gears. Little more than 1,100kg. On the right road, the combination matters more than any one figure.
The Series 1 was designed around the driver – and for days like this.

Our Encor Series 1 development car has been covering road and track miles across Europe – most recently on roads closer to home.
Turn up the sound for the resonant exhaust note, the flutter of the turbo intake and a glimpse of the Series 1

Recently, the Encor Series 1 headed out onto public roads in the UK for an extensive on-road film programme, capturing the car exactly where it was engineered to be.
Real roads. Real driving.
More to follow.

Delivering over 350hp per tonne, a five-speed manual gearbox and hydraulic steering, the Series 1 delivers the kind of analogue driving experience that increasingly feels rare.
