SKperformance Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Lexus, the luxury brand of Toyota, stands before a Rundumerneuerung of the model program. In all classes attack is made. The magic words are called all-wheel drive, Diesel and hybrid technology. Toyotas luxury brand Lexus is a Erfolgsstory. But are sold only in the USA nearly 85 per cent of all produced Lexus automobiles, to Europe been allotted only sieve there per cent. A condition with that the second largest automaker of the world to be content cannot, particularly since Toyota sees straight Wachstumspotenzial enormous on the European market. And still something disturbs the Toyota Bosse at the Lexus boom in the USA: It is based to time nearly to the half on the paragraph of the Gelaendegaenger RX 300 and LX 470, which marks the Lexus label more and more to the Suv instead of luxury mark. Therefore a complete renewal and extension of the Lexus program are introduced. It seizes already in the middle of 2005 with the new edition of the upper middle class: The new gs, on which the study already gave a stylistic Vorgeschmack to Lf-s, is to come not only as sedan, but maximally 18 months later also than sporty Crossover (VX), which could take up it then with the Infiniti. New IS also as Coupé Cabrio Tip of the spear of the Lexus offensive is however the next IS row. It debuetiert probably already to the IAA in the autumn 2005. The introduction on the market is to start however only 2006, particularly since roll more model variants than so far. Are planned apart from the somewhat more largely laid out sedan and the sport CROSS combination mentioned a Coupé Cabrio with electrohydraulically folding Hardtop Hardtop (sports club). In addition the new IS generation like the next gs optionally with all-wheel drive available will be. This platform is also the technical basis for the next RX 300. In addition associate new engines for the IS row: a Dreiliter-V6, a 2,2-Liter-Vierzylinder-Turbodiesel as well as a V8 for the werksgetunte version, which is to attack the coming BMW M3. Likewise 2006 are to be expected the LS 430-Nachfolger, which there is to be as normal and long version with different wheel bases. In addition the Achtzylinder Benziner is increased on 4,5 litres capacity. Also a Diesel version is in preparation, in order to reach in Europe with the flagship more operational readiness level. All-wheel drive is likewise optionally reproached. But the LS 450 does not mark long yet the end of the flag bar. Under the contraction HLS (High Luxury Sedan) Lexus works on a still larger luxury liner with 600 HP strong twelve-cylinder. Beyond that all Lexus models are to be in the future offered similar to the RX 300/RX 400h at least in a version with hybrid drive technology. Even with supersports cars no exception is to be made. To Tokyo engine Show in the autumn 2005 wants to reveal Toyota a V10-Mittelmotor-Supersportwagen (code TXT) with 5,5 litres capacity, more than 500 HP and sequenziellem six-course transmission, to which 2006 go into series and could also in a Lexus version come. It would be the first supersports car with hybrid technology.
