Lexus Shines At Monterey Car Week, Unveils Futuristic Sport Model In Concept Avatar
The luxury arm of Toyota, Lexus, became the centre of attraction at Monterey Car Week in the USA after showcasing the futuristic concept of the Sport model. This is the first time the model made its official appearance after being spotted multiple times during the testing phase overseas.
It has been reported that the company is planning to turn into a production model, which will take the place of the company's iconic LFA sports car. The reports suggested that the brand might release the full production spec version somewhere in the next year. However, a confirmation about the same is yet to be announced by Lexus.
Here's What Design Says
Aesthetically, the Sport Concept looks straight out of some sci-fi thriller as it looks super futuristic. A big credit goes to its edgy look and sharp style statement. The front fascia has been treated with a unique headlight setup, paired with integrated signature-style V-shaped DRLs, and a massive bonnet where 'L' badging shines on the top.
The sculpted bonnet features a pair of big active vents, close to the curvy fenders. The elements not just make it look aggressive but also give it a unique approach in terms of road presence. Talking about the rear, it gets a connected light bar with a glossy treatment at the centre, pairing up with raised buttresses on both ends.
What About Specs?
Under the hood, everything has been covered as the company has not revealed any spec-related details as yet. However, some reports suggested that the car might use a twin-turbocharged V8 engine with a sweet touch of electrification.
