•

Lexus is currently in the midst of developing its next-generation LS limousine to rival the BMW 7-Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. It is reported that the recent teaser image released by the Japanese marque is a preview of the new car.

The new range-topping Lexus sedan is internally known as the LF-S II-FCV and will also spawn the new Lexus LC Coupe. Additionally, it is reported that that the car could be available with a fuel cell powertrain also utilising an advanced all-wheel drive system. A number of more traditional engines should also be offered including a 3.5-litre V6 petrol-electric hybrid with in excess of 440 hp.

The car Lexus is bringing to the Tokyo Motor Show 2015 later this month will be a concept. However, there’s a good chance that its design won’t be all that different from the production-spec model. From the teaser, we could see aggressive LED headlights as well as the Lexus spindle front grille.
