Lexus CT200h Confirmed for U.S!

Power comes from a version of Toyota’s Hybrid Synergy Drive system using a 1.8-liter VVT-i 4-cylinder, however, Toyota has yet to announce any engine output numbers. A similar setup used in the Prius makes just 134-hp, but we’re hoping for something closer to the HS250’s 187-hp. Lexus claims a fully electric range of 1.2 miles in EV mode at speeds up to 28 mph, while driver’s can also select Normal or Sport driving modes. The CT200h is a front-wheel drive model and runs 17-inch wheels.

The interior is certainly of a reasonably premium level, with some typical Toyota hybrid touches like the small gear shifter and push button ignition. The dash is divided into two “zones” with a Display Zone for vehicle information (which includes an 8-inch LCD screen) and an Operation Zone, which includes the Lexus Remote Touch mouse control. As a hatchback, Lexus rates the car’s storage capacity at roughly 12 cubic feet behind the rear seats and a total of 25 cubic feet with those seats folded flat.

Notable safety features include traction and stability control, eight standard airbags and an optional Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control

although its kinda weird .... and ugly I'm sure there will be a market for it. Jumped up Matrix

This thing blows.....
Unless they make 300+hp verison, then it'd be awesome.

lexus comes out with some garbage car

lexus HS is a joke

starts $40 grand, tops $50 grand

the fucking car looks like a corolla, no wait it is a corolla.

weighs 1700kg / 3740 pounds
187hp, 140 torque, basically a camery hybrid except it weighs more than that.

IS/ES makes a lot more sense than that piece of shit

Can't see shit buddy.

and not everyone's buying a car for performance so stop basing your opinions on numbers alone.

Design wise i kinda do like it, but if they do what they did with the HS, its not gonna sell. I mean im a lexus fan, but yea.. The base hs is like 40 something grand, and its got fuck all in it besides a silver L on the steering wheel.

Thankfully, you're not running any companies or they'd be 12 feet under right about now.
