The Lotus 93T was a Formula One car with which the Team Lotus participated the first part of the F1 championship in 1983. It was the first Lotus car to use the Renault Turbo engine. In the championship the car was driven only by Elio de Angelis, the other driver of the team, Nigel Mansell, raced with the Lotus 92, a car with the Ford Cosworth engine. While performing well in qualifying, the 93T was unreliable and came only once to the finish of the race. Mansell drove the 93T in a non-championship race, the Race of Champions. The car was replaced in the course of the season with the Lotus 94T.
