JCN Newswire (English)
Lexus will show a total of 11 vehicles at the 44th Tokyo Motor
Show 2015. The exhibition will mark the Japanese debut of two
models: the partially redesigned GS, and the GS F high-performance
sports sedan--the latest member of the Lexus "F" lineup.
Additionally, the new RX premium crossover will make its first
appearance in public at the Motor Show. All three models were
unveiled in the U.S. earlier this year, and are scheduled for
launch in Japan within 2015.
Also making its world premiere is a new concept car which expresses
Lexus' future vision of progressive luxury. Complete details will
be made available in a press release on October 28.
GS F (Japanese debut)
A high-performance sports sedan that emphasizes sound, dynamic
response and acceleration.
Main features:
- The 5.0-liter V8 engine equipped with D-4S (Direct Injection
4-stroke Gasoline Engine Superior Version) produces the linear
power and superior response characteristics of a normally aspirated
engine, while achieving high output. In addition, running the
engine on the Atkinson cycle at cruising range improves fuel
efficiency and environmental performance. The 8-speed Sport Direct
Shift transmission allows the driver to experience acceleration
directly, plus the specially designed suspension system and other
features enable the driver to enjoy both full-scale sport driving
and a comfortable ride on ordinary roads.
- The individuality of the F series is reinforced by an exterior
that appeals to motorsports fans through a low center of gravity, a
large spindle grill and large air ducts. The interior focuses on
function, with special seats that achieve superior body hold
through integral skin foam molding.
GS (Japanese debut)
A mid-size luxury sedan that combines an imposing, aggressive
design with class-leading driving performance.
Main features:
- The sporty low center of gravity and three-dimensional shape of
the spindle grille emphasize the individuality of the GS.
- LED lighting is used throughout, while the high-performance
three-bulb LED headlamps come with an optional Adaptive High-beam
System (AHS). The design of the front bumper, rocker moldings, rear
combination lamps and other parts have also been updated to express
the powerful presence of the GS.
- The 3.5-liter V6 engine has been improved from the cylinder block
up, and combines the Atkinson-cycle engine with a new-generation
D-4S system to achieve excellent fuel efficiency performance.
- The use of a decorative metal finish and satin metal trim,
together with other new features such as a laser-cut real wood
grain ornament panel, achieve an integrated interior that is both
luxurious and modern.
- Enhanced body rigidity and optimally-tuned suspension achieve a
smooth and gentle ride, while enhanced rigidity of steering
components ensures superior dynamic response.
RX
An all-new premium crossover developed on the proposition of
keeping the best of the original RX, yet achieving more.
Main features:
- An exterior with the strength of a sport utility vehicle combined
with a strong, mature appeal, and an elegant interior featuring a
host of new technologies.
- Improved body structure and suspension achieve both a comfortable
ride and the response needed to faithfully meet the demands of the
driver.
- The fuel efficient, low CO2 emission hybrid and the
intercooler-equipped 2.0-liter direct-injection four-cylinder turbo
DOHC engine powertrains achieve both a pleasurable drive and strong
environmental performance.
