2010 Lexus CT 200h

As you may know already, Lexus is going to reveal its brand new LF-Ch Concept at September's Frankfurt Motor Show but, thanks to Japan's Best Car Magazine, we found out a little more about this new car: this new hatchback will be named CT 200h. The new Lexus will carry a new design philosophy, set the leave behind the standard design lines from Bmw 1-Series and Audi A3, and promises to be a breath of fresh air in the premium hatchback segment.

The new car will be offered also as a hybrid and will carry a 2.4-liter petrol engine but also an electric motor capable to transform the car into a pure EV until the speed reaches 60 km/h or 37 miles. The Japanese manufacturer is also thinking to introduce a second hybrid version of the car, this time powered by the powerful 3.5-liter V6 engine. Apparently, this new hatchback will be named CT 200h and the production version will be seen at next year's Paris Motor Show!
