This focused evolution of the Evora has resulted in a landmark model for the British manufacturer. Powered by a new development of the 3.5-litre V6 supercharged and charge cooled engine, which produced 430 raging stallions, and benefitting from a significant hike in downforce, the Evora GT430 is a class apart from its competitors.

A large rear diffuser provides a sharp visual finish.
