Norwich City front-of-shirt sponsors Lotus have renewed their deal with the Canaries, meaning their logo will be included on the club's kits for the 2022-23 season.
The car manufacturers were the second brand to be announced as principal partners of the club last summer, after fan uproar at the marketing strategies of original sponsors BK8.
The Hethel-based company now look set to stick around, although there's been no confirmation from the club as to the length of this extension.
Lotus already has naming rights to the club's Colney base, which was renamed the Lotus Training Centre as a result.
Norwich's commercial director Sam Jeffery said of the continued kit sponsorship: "We're delighted that the iconic Lotus brand will adorn our shirts once again this season.
"It's a partnership built on mutual respect and one that encapsulates two organisations striving to innovate and constantly grow.
"Sincere thanks must go to Lotus Cars managing director Matt Windle, who's been steadfast in his support of not just Norwich City, but the foundation too. He, along with his executive team, deserve great credit.
