Production flagship vehicle in Japan will start in the middle of next year.
Lexus is making the final touches on the new LS sedan the fifth generation, which is not the first time catches in the lenses of spy cameras.
At the moment it is difficult to say whether all details of the prototype will be in serini model, but, at least, it is known that the headlights (who looked as if borrowed from an old Toyota Celica) only a temporary solution. The same applies to the rear lights that just will not go into production. If you look closely at the rear of the car, under the black tape you can see the real shape of the taillights.
Probably, the manufacturer decided on the design a couple of years ago, and then in 2015, presented at the Tokyo motor show concept LF-FC, which served as a hint of the design of the upcoming flagship.
The new all-wheel-drive Lexus LS will lead borrowed from LC 500 five-liter engine V8, whose power is 467 HP Engine is paired with a ten automatic transmission. It is likely that the novelty will receive a high-performance fuel cell block, which was presented in the LF-FC. Will also be available a hybrid version with a 3.6-litre V6 engine, four-speed automatic gearbox or a CVT unit of lithium-ion batteries and two electric motors, like the LC 500.
Production flagship vehicle in Japan will start in the middle of next year, after its debut at the Detroit auto show in January.
