[Original by Dongchedi Product] Recently, we learned from relevant channels that Toyota has submitted trademark applications for "LFR" and "Lexus LFR" in Europe. It is reported that the new car is expected to be the successor model of Lexus LFA, and it is very likely to be a pure electric sports car based on the previous Electrified Sport concept car.

In addition to the iconic daytime running lights, Lexus' exclusive design elements have gradually disappeared

As a brand new product under the electrification architecture of Lexus, the Electrified Sport concept car is built with a new design language. The front face has cancelled the brand's iconic spindle-type air intake grille, and it also reduces the hard line design on the current model, and the overall outline is relatively round. In addition, the low front and huge air intakes on both sides also create a stronger sporty atmosphere. In terms of details, the headlights are hidden inside the air intakes on both sides, and the L-shaped sun running lights are still a familiar iconic design element.

concept car model proportions are very exaggerated, the front part basically occupies half of the body length, the cockpit is designed in the middle and rear, and it shows a full sporty style with the protruding wheel arches, low body posture and black roof. The rear end of

adopts an exaggerated rear surround design, but it is not clear whether the mass-produced version will be like this. It is not clear that the rear end of

is very compact. The rapidly sliding roof lines enhance the sporty feeling of the car. In order to echo the headlight group, the new car's taillight group is also hidden on both sides of the rear diffuser, and the recognition is not low after lighting up.

Although Lexus has not released the power information of the new car, it has previously mentioned that the Electrified Sport concept car will have an acceleration time of less than 2 seconds of 0-96 km/h. At the same time, it also uses the solid-state battery , and the range will reach about 700 kilometers. (The above data comes from Lexus)
