Lotus has always been driven by a passion for racing, whether on the road or the track. The iconic brand announces the return of Team Lotus, a powerful global community that brings together racers, fans, and partners united by their love for motorsport.
With more than 75 years of heritage, expertise, and an unrelenting spirit of innovation, Lotus continues to be synonymous with racing excellence. The rebirth of Team Lotus reaffirms our dedication to competitive motorsport and our commitment to racing culture worldwide. This dynamic new initiative unites all of Lotus’ motorsport activities—spanning factory-supported programs, partner racing teams, Lotus Cup championships, driver development, and a vibrant global racing fanbase—under one unified banner.
Gavan Kershaw, Director and Head of Motorsports at Lotus Cars, shared his thoughts: “Motorsport has been woven into the very fabric of Lotus from the very beginning. Every weekend, Lotus cars compete at all levels of racing, from grassroots to international championships. Team Lotus is a celebration of that passion, bringing together drivers and teams from all disciplines—whether it’s GT, endurance, or classic racing—to create something truly special.”
As Team Lotus re-establishes its presence on the global racing stage, it kicks off with an expanding roster of partner teams and customers. In 2025, the Emira GT4 will take on the track at prestigious events worldwide, including the British GT4 with Mahiki Racing, the SRO GT Cup in Shanghai with Pegasus Racing, and the Italian Championship with PB Racing, alongside the Euro Series GT4.
In addition to honoring Lotus’ historic legacy in Formula 1, as part of the sport’s 75th anniversary, Team Lotus looks to the future with renewed vigor. Our vision is to build on our foundation and reignite the passion for motorsport that has defined Lotus for decades.
As part of the revitalized Team Lotus identity, a bold and distinctive 2025 race livery has been unveiled. Merging the iconic Lotus yellow with elements inspired by some of our most famous past designs, the new livery captures the forward-looking spirit of Team Lotus—a blend of tradition and innovation that will carry us into the future of racing.
The revival of Team Lotus is more than just a name; it’s a celebration of the legacy that has made Lotus a symbol of motorsport passion. Together, we’ll fuel the next generation of racing excellence.
