  • Teaser for new Lexus debuting at 2016 Detroit Auto Show

    Lexus has confirmed plans to debut a new vehicle at next week’s 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Unfortunately, there’s not much else in the way of official details but a teaser image of some burnt rubber on the Lexus website suggests we’ll see a sporty car unveiled. Lexus has two major products in the pipeline. One is the long overdue replacement for the LS, which we were given a preview of in the form of the LF-FC concept at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show. The other car Lexus has in the works—that we know about—is a production version of 2012’s LF-LC concept. The car...

    Lexus LF-LC Concept Confirmed For Production: Report

    The Lexus LF-LC Concept’s reception at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show was an undeniable a success, but in a world where economics rule that doesn’t necessarily mean production is a given--even with Lexus attempting to inject some much-needed sportiness to its lineup. Nevertheless...

  • Lexus LF-LC Blue Concept

    For those that had expected a totally new Lexus concept to come forth down under, we're sorry: this is the LF-LC Blue Concept, which is primarily different from the LF-LC shown at Detroit this year in color only. We do, fortunately, get a single new spec, however, finally elucidating the power of the LF-LC hybrid drivetrain, the Advanced Lexus Hybrid Drive. Rated at 500 horsepower combined (Lexus doesn't break it down into combustion engine versus electric motor figures), Lexus says it's the most powerful of any of its hybrids. It also claims the battery pack is smaller and more advanced than...

    The Lexus LF-LC is a rarity among modern auto show concepts: it's an actual concept. It's not intended to directly preview any production model, and it's certainly not a thinly-veiled production-ready car. It's also pretty daring in its details. And it's a hybrid. Beyond that, there's not a lot to...
