Toyota is well-known as the brand making two-door sport-cars, such as Supra or Celica.

Free space will be filled with a new model 

The new cars exist only in plans and the Japanese brand decided to fill the free area of two-door coupes. It is said that Toyota engineers are working at the car of that class, though we don’t have the reliable information on it.

In its appearance there are no serious changes in comparison with its first variant. The engine is the main change, of course: it is V6 of 3,5-liter and it has 340 hp. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 5 seconds. Unfortunately there is no information on its fuel economy statistics. In other parts we can see no changes, to our disappointment.

New Lexus design

Lexus was always recognized as a bit conservative brand, especially in its designs.

Toyota announced the new design of Lexus

But know this thing is going to change, as Toyota Design director told Lexus is turning to more sporting and aggressive style. Lexus will continue the line started on HS250 h and develop its character. The first announced change will happen with the grille. We’re looking forward to more aggressive and representative Lexus line, but the grille isn’t a thing that can change its appearance in whole, so we hope we’ll see another changes.

Once you have forged V10 you will hear screaming cry. Scientists have confirmed that the driver behind the wheel of LFA feels positively euphoric.

Incredible speed Lexus LFA

To avoid such abuse, the company has solved this problem. First, a person under 18 can not get a driving license. Second, the auto maker has limited its production to 500 units worldwide. The car is made up of carbon fiber, aluminum and titanium. And this car is worth only 375,000 dollars. Under the hood is a 4.8-liter naturally aspirated engine. The car is designed for 552 hp at 8700 rpm. V10 engine accelerates to maximum speed for six-tenths seconds.

Rumor about the LFA-delivery Lexus GS willn't die


Society crumbles. Earthborn stock abraded from the map of the Earth. The insects will still be transit around certain automobile rumors.

Lexus has good position on the market

Mustang Independent-back-pendant and a mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette will be disagreement. The V10-motion Lexus GS generates rumors. Lexus and has its eye on craft a BMW M5 battler. You must get us wrong. GS would go into packing 4.6 liters vice of 4.8. The decrease displacement would yield nearly 450 horsepower.

Famous magazine steals Lexus’s photos

Though Detroit Motor Show was not held yet, people can already find images of Lexus LF-LC in the Internet because of Road & Track magazine and web-account.

LF-LC photos and video were published in the Internet

There is not much information about this new Lexus project. All we can see is changes in coupe and grille that make the base of Lexus GS. The grille looks now more sporting and extreme. The hood was enlarged and the headlamps were placed in the air intakes. We cannot say anything before the official release, but it looks like Lexus is going to build LS-coupe oriented at Mercedes-Benz SL models.

Video release of Lexus LS

On the official published video revealing new Lexus RX crossover Lexus Enthusiast found an introduction of video series revealing hew model line of Lexus.

Lexus Enthusiast found Lexus LS concept teaser

They include CT 200h Sport, LS of the next generation, LX SUV and GS 450h. As Lexus Enthusiast said, this is a kind of puzzle suggested by Lexus to take a quick look at their new models. Information is limited, but we can see unusual headlight shape and chrome detail coverage.

Official photos of Lexus LF-LC are published

Road & Track magazine published spy photos of LF-LC, so Lexus not to be left out in the cold published official photos next day.

After leaked photos, official release comes

These photos don’t give us much information except what we know from its dealers – the car combines both technical and organic materials and it is made from scratch. So be it.We consider reasonable to assume that LF-LC will be competing with 6-series BMW or Mercedes-Benz SL. Nevertheless we should wait until the car appears in the market to judge it.

Lexus assures us in the creation of a new car

Despite of existing for 22 years already, Lexus has not made anything serious that can impress the auto-making society. This new 350 was going to break this statement. This car, as it was announced, is going to be more “emotional” than others. They aim at middle-class clients in selling this car.

Lexus 350 was examined hard

The grille is maybe too thick and hard. Despite of it, the other appearance is rather good, but still imperfect containing questionable items and inserts. Interior is made in traditions of BMW: it consists of large LCD-screens, highly elevated steering wheel, low hood and dashboard. Quality of materials has been improved greatly. Lexus will sell this car in 4 variations, including Hybrid, Sport and Luxury types. Making the conclusion, we can say that this Lexus looks like old-style Toyota a bit, it is rather elegant and pleasant-looking, has high-quality materials and technique and all these things allow him to compete with European analogs. The results of their competition will be seen in markets.

New agreement between Toyota and BMW

In new round of BMW-Toyota partnership companies shares the point of making new lithium green batteries. Diesel engines needed by Lexus were relegated to second place.

Lexus is left without diesels

BMW will produce two diesels for European companies of Toyota concern. They will be 1,5 and 2,0-liter diesel engines. Toyota in this way can increase its sells, as most cars in world market are diesel-powered. And Lexus will stay focused on producing hybrid models.

New sedan from Lexus

A new Lexus grille was a sufficient thing to start new series of model containing this part of interior. Lexus ES is a continuation of this series. The company has released its debut at New York Motor Show.

Lexus ES was announced

According to the photos, it has chrome includes, LED-headlights and unusually-styled fog-lightings. Lexus assures us that differences are made not in appearance only. This we will verify only at New York on the 4th of April.

A careful study of a new Lexus

Corrections that are made soon after release in auto-making business are a sign of problems with technique or quality with produced model. This is the thing that happened with Lexus IS F. It was presented in 2007 in Detroit, it was a fresh Japanese look on sedan line, and it was aimed at competing with BMW, Audi and Cadillac analogs, although its power was not enough to be a real challenger to win in this competition.

Lexus was updated and we try to evaluate the work

Lexus understood their failure and reissued IS F in 2011 with better materials, handling, interior and exterior. But does it allow Lexus to return to competition again? This model has greatly changed in comparison with older models of this series: it has improved design, brakes, engine and exhaust.

other view 

In 2009 we really appreciated this car for its appearance and a brave attempt to compete with the great brands. But in fact it was not good at all. This car was good enough for cross-country, but on the streets it was awfully bad. This opinion was shared by most auto-critics.

So in 2011 these problems seem to vanish. The suspension was improved greatly, so that it is now pleasant to sit in IS F while driving along straight streets. The handling was enhanced by improving wheel and turning feelings of the car. The wheels were enlarged to 20-inch. Interior was changed by adding LCD screens and improving dashboard with its sensors.
Very comfortable and stylish 

The 470 hp engine remains unchanged. The transmission is slightly improved by electronic control settings. New IS F top speed is about 190 mph, and it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,5 seconds – that’s a good result for such a class of car.

Very powerful engine from Lexus

Interior is made of black and orange leather – such a combination might scare shy people, but it is not the worst thing that could be there. IS F new price is $59,000 with base equipment. For additional options you should pay about $6,000.

In comparison with the older model it was tested in the same way as the 2007 had been. Among these competes there was family use, street-road longtime riding and canyon climbing. The car was driven with Sport mode off to see what the base pack itself is. And it showed good results: it was pleasant and easy to drive, comfortable to sit and strong enough to deal with the tasks. Then the car was driven along the highway with acceleration to 120 km/h, and its handling became boring but easy. It was hard but not too uncomfortable – just enough balanced.

 New toy for driver 

The next step was switching the Sport mode on. By the way, the Sport-mode button is now placed in a right place on the dashboard, unlike the first model of 2007. Switching the Sport mode on makes Lexus IS F a real beast, roaring with its V8 engine. Now handling seems more dangerous but really exciting. When you start from the place in Sport mode and acceleration full-on, the wheels are burning and screaming, and even if this is not ecological, it finally gives you emotions you missed while driving IS F in normal mode.

New changes improves handling, makes the dashboard more useful and comfortable, but sharp turns are still Lexus IS F’s problem, as wheels can’t deal with them properly. But breaking is improved greatly, so that it balances lack of maneuvering.

It`s a big step for sedan Lexus

To make the conclusion, we should say: undoubtedly, 2011 Lexus IS F is the best car that Lexus has ever built. Still it is not strong enough to compete with stronger companies of America and Europe. But it is a car that provides a perfect balance between luxury and performance for such a small price. We hope it will be further improved and will be able to win the competition in attracting clients’ attention towards it.

Lexus moves to California

According to the sources, Lexus can relocate to California in the near future

Lexus also say that moving is not decided yet at all

Lexus’s global marketing office has been already moved to Torrance, California. In this step the first sign of upcoming movement was seen. Executive President of Lexus wants to make Lexus more international and less Japanese company, as he says. Following the example of Lexus, Nissan decided to move to Hong-Kong all its offices except the engineering part of company. In Toyota concern say they haven’t decided yet where Lexus’s headquarters will be placed.

Lexus will stay focused in hybrids

BMW and Toyota will work together on environmentally friendly engines of next generation. New-adopted deal contains development of lithium batteries, but no work on diesel engines to provide Lexus with them, as it was decided before.

New contract doesn’t provide Lexus with diesel engines

Under this agreement BMW will make 1,6 and 2,0 liter diesel engines for European companies of Toyota concern, and this won’t provide Lexus with diesel engines.This measure should help Toyota, as the main demand on the market stays strongly for diesel-engined vehicles. And Lexus, thus, left without new diesels, will be producing new hybrid models.

New Lexus SUV’s pictures are published

Lexus new CUV photos leaked

Some new details about brand new CUV by Lexus were revealed by the loss of photos that spread widely on the Internet.

We cannot come to any conclusions, but as we see new CUV will have a lifted sport-looking front, as others Lexus updated models. This contour differs greatly from previous Lexus models.This form was accepted by most other cars, including the GS sedan. This look seems sporting and fresh to them.In spite of this, new CUV doesn’t differ a lot from its elder brother. The form and the style of it are just like the previous Japanese CUVs had.
