what is it? A hatchback??

If it is that should go over very well in Europe...as practical as they are, I can't see myself driving a Lexus hatchback on this side of the pond.

I've seen some spy shots of what seems to be a production LF-CH or it's possble real name the CT 200h so I guess it will be a real car. However I don't see it selling well, I wouldn't buy one.

The LF-CH is a 3 door hatchback. It will be a tough sell here in the US since luxury 3 door hatchbacks just dont sell here. 3 door hatchbacks are popular in Europe, but Lexus still havent been able to break into that market yet.

If anyone is so inclined, there is a link within the article to give you feedback on the car straight to Lexus. We also have regular updates within the news section as to the progress

You can get the survey here

Stay tuned for more information from the show.

Pricing will be the key for the LF-CH. If it is going to start in the mid 30s and gets up to low 40s loaded, then Lexus will have a tough sell.
