Lexus announces that it will unveil the five-door hybrid “CT200h1″—the first Lexus vehicle in the premium-compact segment—at the 80th Geneva International Motor Show2, to be held in Geneva, Switzerland, for the press on March 2 and 3 and for the public from March 4 to 14.
CT200h (European-market version)
The CT200h was designed to open the way for a new Lexus era by combining the dynamism of sporty driving performance and styling with outstanding environmental performance, resulting in an experience that captivates driver and passenger alike.
A newly developed high-rigidity body and strong yet flexible suspension, together with Lexus Hybrid Drive, are the basis for exhilarating handling performance and the pursuit of top-of-its-class3 environmental performance.
The vehicle has precise response thanks to its easily selectable Sport, Eco and other driving modes, while a sophisticated cockpit offers clear visibility and operability that enhances driving pleasure.
The Japanese launch of the CT200h is scheduled for early 2011.
In addition to the CT200h, Lexus vehicles on display at the motor show will include the “LFA”, “LS600h”, “GS450h”, “RX450h” and “IS250C”.
