In addition to the pair of Evoras being introduced at this years Paris Motor Show, Lotus will also be unveiling two front-engine hybrid vehicles, in keeping with the automakers promise to offer more gasoline/electric sports cars. Edmunds Green Car Advisor reports that one of these hybrid cars will be a four-door hatchback and the other will be a two-door coupe.

Lotus debuted its hybrid concept earlier this year in the form of the Evora 414E Hybrid (pictured), but unlike the mid-engine concept, the two front-engine models will utilize a 47-horsepower 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine specifically designed to provide power to electric-drive hybrids.

Well have the full details direct from the Paris show later this month, so stay tuned.
