Lotus-Pratt & Whitney was the Lotus 56B, a turbine-powered car that raced in 1971 using a Pratt & Whitney gas turbine engine. It was entered in three races for Dave Walker, Reine Wisell and Emerson Fittipaldi, and Fittipaldi finished eighth at the 1971 Italian Grand Prix. It did not score points, and the turbine project ended after one season.
