Even Lotus focused on the model which gave rise to only 25 Proton Satria Neo R3 Lotus Racing edition. The car certainly was deserving of its “Lotus Racing” name after the bunch of performance enhancements. But in case we forget, the Proton Satria Neo was also converted for rally racing duties, known as the Ne S2000.
