Why do all lotus cars begin with the letter E?



Answers:
Nobody really knows but before the Lotus Eleven all Lotus road cars were known as Mark 1, Mark 2 etc. However, when it came to the Lotus Eleven using the numerical symbol confused the car with the Roman Numerals for the number 2. Consequently, since the Lotus Eleven all Lotus road car names have started with the letter E. Incidentally, the Elise is named after the current Lotus chairmans daughter.
Lotuses start with E because E= EXCITING & EXTRAVAGANT!! Isnt that what Lotus stands for!!
The Lotus 7 is small, simple, lightweight two-seater open-top sports car, and doesn't start with an E. I don't know when Lotus changed to the E names - Elan, Esprit, et al
I guess its branding, I wonder how they got away with the sun beam!
Because they are DYLETRIC ha ha
i don't know, but at least they don't just name them a number like some car companies. come on, think up a name, slackers!
Excruciatingly Gorgeous. lol
