LF-A
UK debut for the LF-A sports car concept at the British Motor Show
The LF-A makes its UK debut at the British International Motor Show in July.
The sports car concept has already resulted in a passionate band of would-be drivers enquiring at Lookers’ Lexus Centres and its unveiling at this year’s British Motor Show is likely to boost enquiries even further.
One of the world’s most eagerly anticipated supercars, the LF-A will form the centerpiece of the Lexus stand at this year’s show from 23rd July – 3rd August 2008.
Lexus LF-A Concept
A supercar with world class performance that is uniquely Lexus, the first LF-A concept was unveiled in 2005 and has made significant progress; most recently the car was on public view, competing in the Nürburgring 24 Hours race as part of its on-going development programme.
The LF-A is powered by a high-revving V10 front mid-mounted engine producing more than 500 DIN hp, making a top speed of more than 200mph not only possible, but probable. The rear-mounted transaxle and radiators contribute to excellent weight distribution.
Styled according to the principles of Lexus’s L-finesse design language, LF-A has a striking, dynamic, yet compact bodywork with curved surfaces and intriguing details, crafted from aluminium and carbon fibre. The rear section includes a speed-activated spoiler, with further dynamic stability provided by Venturi-effect underbody aerodynamics.
