Lexus will show two new models on the Detroit Motor Show, which will be held next January. And according to the company's General Manager Jeff Brekena none of this pair will be entry-level models. Despite the fact that Lexus has lost part of the segment to Mercedes-Benz and BMW because of the lack of entry-level models, the Japanese company is not going to become "cheaper". In addition to in 2016 Lexus will introduce a new sports car, inspired by the concept LF-LC and designed to be the successor of the LFA supercar. But at the same time, the new sports car will be much more affordable than Lexus LFA. Design of the concept will be kept in the serial version practically without changes. This means that we are waiting for the aggressive sports uniform in the best traditions of Japanese design with the slanted narrow lights, lots of sharp transitions and unexpected angles. The new sports car will get index SC, which is borrowed from already outdated Coupe-Cabriolet. The car will be equipped with a hybrid of petrol engine and electric motor V8. Its power will be around 500 HP but it is still unknown what platform will be built for this sports car. Maybe this will be a shortened platform of the flagship sedan, the LS, GS or completely new platform.
