Lotus is no stranger to working with other automakers, especially in the form of engineering and handling consultant, it latest partnership however brings forth a level of cooperation unique in its history.
Spyker is not new to using Lotus for its engineering services. Its latest agreement with the brand, though, goes a step further and includes the sharing of ideas, parts, and even platforms. Lotus role in the C8 is set to expand with Spyker's C8 Aileron and they may even play a role in Spyker's D8 off road, Dakar buggy, type vehicle.
There's even a chance that Spyker's and the Lotus Esprit successor may be sharing parts .
Our take? Spykers have been criticized as all looks with no substance, further involvement by Lotus can make them legitimate supercar competitors. Lotus thankfully, should be guaranteed some income.
