Garia Mansory Edition

At the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, Mansory announced a commercial agreement with Garia.[3] The company produced a series of special edition golf and leisure cars for wealthy clients. These cars were characterised by carbon fibre body panels on the front, side steps and tail and elements of teak decking.

Collaboration with Lotus Group

In 2012, Mansory signed an agreement with Lotus Group,[4] then under the control of Dany Bahar who had ambitious expansion plans. Under the agreement, Mansory would provide its services to Lotus customers who would require bodywork, trim and special finishes for Lotus' the Elise, Exige and Evora range. The partnership developed following a series of one-off models produced by Mansory for Lotus including the Evora Concept Bespoke unveiled at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show.

The partnership fell through shortly afterwards when Dany Bahar was removed as CEO of Lotus Group. In March 2019 Mansory released the GTE Final Edition at the Geneva Motor Show 2019, based on the Evora.
