A Lexus
LF-A concept was first revealed back in 2005, but
was revived with alterations for 2007 at the Detroit Motor
Show.
The Lexus LF-A is a high performance supercar concept
powered by a mid-front mounted 500 horsepower V10 engine.
As with all recent Lexus vehicles, the styling of the
2007 LF-A is rooted in a design direction called L-finesse.
The concept of L-finesse was used to shape and detail
the original LF-A of 2005, and it was used to reshape,
redetail and redefine the latest version. Lexus has further
refined the styling of the new LF-A to enhance its exotic
nature with a greater use of curved surfaces and interesting
details.
An "F" logo, indicating the Lexus LF-A's status
as a part of the new high performance"F" range,
is located on each front fender
"The first LF-A was a pure concept, but one that
we went so far as to conduct engineering analysis on,"
said Bob Carter, Lexus Division group vice president and
general manager. "This latest concept is much closer
to a vehicle that we would bring to market, and one in
which we will be gauging consumer interest."
The production
version of the LFA was finally revealed in October
2009. Deliveries of the first cars began in 2010.
