Additional Notes
- The Lotus Eclat carries a coolant system capacity of 8.5 liters across both the 2.2 and Excel variants, spanning the full 1981-1992 range covered by the specifications.
- An 8.5-liter cooling system capacity is a moderately sized figure, consistent with a four-cylinder performance engine where thermal management demands are meaningful but not extreme.
- The Eclat 2.2 (1981-1982) and the Eclat Excel (1983-1992) share an identical 8.5-liter capacity, indicating no change in cooling system volume between the two configurations despite the model designation shift.
- Both configurations carry a Normal use condition tied to the 8.5-liter capacity figure, meaning the specification applies to standard operating environments rather than elevated-stress or severe-duty cycles.
