Overview
- Lola unveiled the T70S racer and T70S GT at London’s Royal Automobile Club on Tuesday, confirming a total production of 16 cars.
- The T70S uses a 5.0‑litre Chevrolet V8 rated at 530 bhp with a claimed 203 mph top speed and 0–60 mph in 2.5 seconds, while the GT’s 6.2‑litre V8 makes 500 bhp with about 200 mph and 0–60 in 2.9 seconds.
- The track car holds an FIA Historic Technical Passport for eligibility in historic racing, and Lola keeps period features like a Hewland H‑pattern transaxle and double‑wishbone suspension.
- Body panels are made with Lola’s patent‑pending Natural Composite System that layers plant and basalt fibres with a resin derived from sugar‑cane waste over an aluminium monocoque.
- Lola’s lifecycle report claims a 54% cradle‑to‑gate CO2e reduction versus traditional builds, including a 63% cut from the LNCS bodywork and an 80% cut from solar‑made magnesium processing.
