Toyota's luxury division, Lexus, has been pretty good at putting hybrid drivetrains in its cars, giving them better fuel economy and low smog-forming emissions than most competing models. But what would be really nice is if they pushed a bit further and starting making fully electric cars (or even plug-in hybrids). Sadly, the latest concept car by Lexus doesn't go quite that far and sticks with just a conventional gas-electric hybrid drivetrain. It's not bad per se, but I'd be a lot more excited if they had come out with a 100% electric sporty model with a 150+ miles range that hinted at competition with Tesla's Model S.
So the LF-LC (who picks these names?) is 2+2 sporty coupe. Lexus claims that it's "showcasing the future design direction for Lexus with an emphasis on a driver-focused vehicle" and "displays the new Lexus design language in its bold interpretation of the signature Lexus spindle grille and rear architecture. Sumptuous curves blend smoothly into dynamic angles, creating an inviting display of lines, shadows and corners."
