Caterham has launched a revised version of the R500: the Evolution. The £42k range topper packs a 250 bhp punch, enough to launch it to 60 mph in 3.2 seconds thanks to a power-to-weight ratio of 530 bhp per tonne! Clearly aimed at the track day and club racer, the Evolution features a fully adjustable suspension set up, race proven brakes and special road-legal semi-slick Avon tyres.
