Additional Notes
- The Lotus Esprit S2 (1978-1980) and the Esprit S2.2 (1980-1981) share an identical cooling system capacity of 10.8 liters, recorded under normal use conditions.
- A cooling system capacity of 10.8 liters places the Esprit S2 in a range typical of mid-displacement performance engines, where the figure reflects the total volume of coolant the system holds when fully filled, including the engine block, cylinder head passages, radiator, and hoses.
- The 1980 model year represents an overlap point between the two configurations, as the Esprit S2 ran through 1980 and the Esprit S2.2 began in the same year, both carrying the same 10.8-liter cooling system specification.
