Remanufactured Lotus Engines – Restoring Performance, Lightness & Power

Lotus vehicles are celebrated for their lightweight engineering, agility, and exhilarating driving dynamics. When your Lotus engine begins to fail, replacing the entire vehicle isn’t necessary—a remanufactured Lotus engine gives you back the precision and thrill of the original powerplant at a fraction of the price of a new one.

Every remanufactured Lotus engine is fully disassembled, precision-machined, and rebuilt using new or reconditioned OEM-quality parts. The result? A high-performance engine that delivers the same responsiveness, reliability, and efficiency as a factory-new unit.

Whether you own a Lotus Elise, Exige, Evora, or Esprit, our remanufactured engines are tested to ensure they meet or exceed the legendary performance standards expected from Lotus.

What Makes a Remanufactured Lotus Engine Different?

A remanufactured engine is more than a repair—it’s a total rebuild. Each engine is stripped down, cleaned, and restored to exact OEM specifications by expert machinists and engineers.

Key components replaced or reconditioned include:

  • Pistons, rings, and connecting rods
  • Crankshaft and bearings
  • Camshafts and cylinder heads
  • Gaskets and seals
  • Timing chains, tensioners, and oil pump
  • Valvetrain components

After reassembly, every Lotus engine is compression tested, pressure tested, and dyno-tested to ensure peak performance and reliability.

Each engine is built under strict quality control standards, including:

  • ISO-certified remanufacturing process

For perfect fitment, simply provide your 17-digit VIN, and we’ll ensure a 100% match for your configuration.


Cost Benefits

Lotus engines are known for their precision and craftsmanship—but that doesn’t have to mean excessive cost. Remanufactured options offer premium performance at significant savings.

  • Nationwide shipping in 3–7 business days
  • Residential and commercial liftgate options
  • VIN-based verification to ensure fitment
  • Installer recommendations and warranty activation support

“A remanufactured Lotus engine is not just a replacement—it’s a restoration of what makes Lotus special: precision, lightness, and performance harmony.”

When Should You Replace Your Lotus Engine?

If you experience any of these common issues, it may be time to consider a remanufactured engine:

  • Engine knocking or rod failure
  • Loss of compression or power
  • Overheating or head gasket failure
  • Excessive oil burning
  • Camshaft or timing chain failure
  • Bearing wear or engine seizure

Replacing your engine ensures the legendary Lotus performance continues without compromise.


Eco-Friendly & Sustainable

Lotus has always emphasized efficiency and innovation. Choosing a remanufactured engine aligns with that philosophy—reducing waste, lowering emissions, and extending the lifespan of your vehicle with sustainable engineering practices.
