Russell Car said, “It is an honour to take on the role of Head of Design for Lotus. Design is extremely important to Lotus as it conveys the pure, competitive and unconventional values of Lotus.”
Russell replaces Donato Coco, former design chief at Ferrari, who joined Lotus in 2010. He will leave Lotus on the 31st of October 2014. Coco commented “My five years at Lotus have been one of the strongest experiences in my career so far and I will look back with great fondness and affection for this iconic company.”
In zijn vorige periode als design patron heeft Russel samen met zijn team mooie autokes ontworpen ......340r , Elise Mk2 , Exige Racer , Evora ,....ook Proton Satria Neo ( toen Mike K nog CEO was ) en de Esprit , plots kwam Mr Bigspender
Hopelijk krijgt Mr Carr de kans om zijn design talent opnieuw te gebruiken .....
