Lexus Sports Car Concept Teased

Posted on 14 December 2011 by SACarFan

Lexus has given us a sneak peek at its latest sports car concept ahead of its unveiling at the 2012 North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January. The sleek concept was designed by Calty – the company’s Californian design studio – and displays Lexus’s new design language, seen on the all-new 2012 Lexus GS.

Designed to preview the company’s new styling direction, the car features recessed headlights, metallic accents, a honeycomb grille and 21-inch dark alloy wheels.

Lexus’s two most recent concepts have quickly been turned into production cars, with the LF-Ch previewing the CT 200h and the LF-Gh becoming the next-generation GS. Each of Lexus’s nine concepts revealed since 2003 have used the ‘LF’ prefix, and it is expected this latest sports car concept will follow the trend.

More details about the new concept will be released in the coming weeks ahead of its motor show debut. Will it be a Lexus spin-off of the recently released Toyota GT-86? Feel free to speculate in the comments below.
