Lexus LF-LC concept 07 | 03 | 2012

LEXUS SHOWED ITS LF-LC concept, which the Japanese manufacturer says “takes the new Lexus design direction one step further”, previews a luxurious new 2+2 coupe, in Europe for the first time at Geneva. And the good news is it's a car Lexus is seriously considering putting into production.

The LF-LC also evolves the L-Finesse design language for Lexus’s production cars, seen in its latest more aggressive guise on the new Lexus GS. The styling philosophy will also make it on to next year’s new Lexus IS.

The new car is likely to sit in Lexus' LS range, and will definitely be a coupe. The production car is expected to use a shortened version of the next-generation LS’s platform.

The LS, in turn, will go into production in 2014 and is likely to feature a hi-tech hybrid drivetrain and be badged LC600h.

Green, boring? Not according to Lexus
