In only 12 years, Lexus has emerged as a true luxury car powerhouse. But to really be aligned with the premier Euro-brands like Mercedes-Benz and BMW, a company has to offer more than just exceptional luxury cars and SUVs. For real prestige, a little fun is in order. A brand needs a head turner, a truly rare offering to match an SL or Z-8. Well, Lexus thinks so, too. But be warned, the newest Lexus is not just a low volume drop top. In fact, Lexus honchos consider the new 2002 SC 430 the ‘‘Jewel of Lexus,’’ inspired by the ambience of the French Riviera. Because that’s where Lexus sent its team of designers to rouse their creative juices before applying mouse to computer screen. And from the looks of the SC 430, it was a successful venture. As the SC 430’s face, with its signature Lexus grille and jeweled headlamps, impart an attitude of elegance with a hint of aggressiveness. That hint of aggressiveness is reinforced by the sculpted character lines that free flow from below the hood, across the peaks of the SC 430’s broad shoulders, rounding down at the rear, where they then form a subtle aerodynamic trunk lip. But the SC 430’s stylistic crowning achievement is a retractable aluminum-alloy hardtop that stows neatly under the rear deck lid with the touch of a single switch. It takes less than 25 seconds to transform you from Lexus insulation to wind-in-the-hair exhilaration. Although there is a penalty paid in cargo space, especially if you opt to forego the optional run-flat tires and go with a spare. That cuts the 9.4 cubic feet capacity down to 8.8. So, travel fashionably light! But the SC isn’t about cargo capacity, it is about passionate motoring. And providing the motivation for that pursuit is this 4.3 liter, DOHC, 32-valve, V-8, with variable valve timing. It also powers the GS 430 sedan. Output is a strong, but smooth, 300 horsepower and 325 pound- feet of torque. The rear drive SC also uses the GS 430’s seamless 5-speed automatic with ‘‘snow’’ and ‘‘power’’ modes. Even with traction control, this Lexus offspring does a dash to 60 in just 5.9 seconds. Not surprisingly, the SC 430 has ride and handling characteristics that are clearly Lexus DNA. That’s to say, smooth, stable, and quiet, if almost too removed from the feel of the road. While the vehicle-speed sensing rack and pinion steering is precise and accurate, it’s hard to sense exactly what the front wheels are doing. But should that lack of feedback cause you to over extend yourself, there’s the nearly invisible Vehicle Skid Control stability system to back you up. As well as 4-wheel disc brakes with meaty 11.7 inch ventilated discs at the front and 12.1 inch solid discs at the rear. Keeping the SC 430 firmly planted falls to the four wheel independent double wishbone suspension. With coil springs and gas shocks at the corners, and stabilizer bars at the front and rear, it’s a set up that’s also been adapted from the GS 430. But it doesn’t have to work too hard, as the SC 430’s stiff structure was designed with drop top motoring in mind from the get-go. And so was the SC 430’s luxurious and superbly appointed interior, that can be trimmed in either Bird’s-Eye Maple or Burled Walnut wood. Driver and front friend get plush Bader leather seats with 10 way power and 4 manual adjustments. Seat heat makes top down driving most enjoyable on cool days. One points the SC by way of a wood and leather adjustable steering wheel with integrated audio and cruise controls, and faces a trio of Ferrari-ish recessed gauges trimmed in chrome. The center stack is topped by an optional navigation system, with a fully automatic climate control system underneath that also compensates for climate changes when the top is down without any additional fiddling. A sweet-sounding Mark Levinson audio system with cassette and 6-disc in-dash changer and 9 speakers, also includes a separate equalization program for top down driving. Lexus bills the SC 430 as a 2+2 coupe, but we can’t imagine anyone riding in the back. Better to look at that space as a plush little cargo hold. Base price on the 2002 Lexus SC 430 is $58,455. The three available options, run-flat tires, navigation system, and rear spoiler, will run $400, $2,000, and $440, respectively. So a fully loaded SC 430 will hit the streets for $61,840 including destination charge. Lexus plans to import just 12,000 SC 430s the first year, and so far has orders on hand for nearly 7,000 vehicles. With numbers like that, it’s clear that the 2002 Lexus SC 430 is turning the right kind of heads, and that Lexus is ready to match prestigious Euro-brands at every turn.

Lexus UX crossover photo and video released ahead of Geneva

Tue, Feb 27 2018

At long last, we have eyes on the production version of the Lexus UX compact crossover that will debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. The retail-ready model was previewed by the UX concept shown at the 2016 Paris Motor Show, which looked like Batman's loaner vehicle while his Tumbler was in the shop. As one would expect, the UX that customers will be able to buy has filtered out all of the bizarro, leaving what looks like a little Lexus NX sprinkled with unique design cues, such as the upright vents in front and the full-width taillight. Lexus calls the UX its "first urban crossover," for reasons we can't imagine; even the Lexus LX, which could probably drive from Boston to Reykjavik if given a long-enough snorkel, only gets dirty in Jackson Hole or at Whole Foods. More reasonably, Lexus promises "exceptional body rigidity," a low center of gravity thanks to a hunkered-down platform borrowed from the Toyota C-HR, and handling that "will be as agile as a hatchback." This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Engine specifics will likely wait until Geneva, but we do know that Lexus trademarked UX 200, UX 250, and UX 250h a couple of years ago. The big-brother NX comes in 300, 300 F Sport, and 350h guises, but is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbo putting out 235 hp in standard spec. Lexus will need room between the UX and NX, but UX competitors like the Audi A3 pump out 200 hp, and the BMW X1 serves up 228 hp. The teaser video above reveals the instrument panel, topped by a widescreen infotainment center that looks like a minimalist rework of the Lexus RX interior. The gauge cluster has physical dividers but appears to be completely digital. You can watch Lexus' livestream from Geneva for all the details we don't have now, or just check back here on March 6 for the particulars and the photos.

Toyota's 'green bond' an industry first, quickly rises to $1.75 billion

Tue, Mar 25 2014

Toyota is greasing the skids for more green car purchases with the announcement of a $1.75-billion bond designed to finance the purchase of high-efficiency Toyota and Lexus models. The Asset-Backed Green Bond is a first for the automotive industry and is making a lot of money available to buy or lease the following vehicles: any of the four Prius variants, Camry Hybrid, Avalon Hybrid, RAV4 EV, Lexus CT 200h and Lexus ES 300h. Originally, the bond was set at $1.25 billion, but Justin Leach, manager of public relations for Toyota Financial Services (TFS), told AutoblogGreen that demand was high and it was quickly oversubscribed. TFS has been looking at more ways to diversify its portfolio after a Diversity & Inclusion Bond that was announced in early 2013 and, with the new Green Bond, TFS is offering something for the "number of investors out there who are looking for investment opportunities in green." The way the money from the bond is used, basically, is that TFS takes the $1.75 billion and uses it to finance the purchase or lease of the nine vehicles listed above. As of right now, all the eligible vehicles are plug-in or hybrids, but the rules simply say that the cars in the program have to meet certain "powertrain, fuel efficiency and emissions" criteria. That means: Minimum EPA estimated MPG (or MPG equivalent for alternative fuel vehicles) of 35 city / 35 highway California Low-Emission Vehicle II (LEV II) certification of super ultra-low emission vehicles (SULEVs) or higher, which would include partial zero emissions vehicles (PZEVs) and zero emissions vehicles (ZEVs). TFS raises plenty of billions in other ways for the rest of the lineup, and got into asset backed securities in 2010, Leach said. Given the success of this first Green Bond, Leach said he expects TFS to keep this idea in its arsenal. "This one was so well received, I would be surprised if we didn't see it again," he said. "If anyone was going to do it, it should be Toyota, right?" Toyota Financial Services (TFS) Issues Auto Industry's First-Ever Asset-Backed Green Bond Bond Proceeds to Fund Consumer Loans and Leases for Toyota's Leading Portfolio of Green Vehicles TORRANCE, Calif., (March 24, 2014) – Toyota Financial Services (TFS) issued the auto industry's first-ever Asset-Backed Green Bond in the amount of $1.75 billion.

2016 Lexus IS gets revised engine lineup

Fri, Jul 24 2015

Look, the old Lexus IS 250 sucked. With a slow, heavy, underpowered, thirsty, 2.5-liter V6 under hood, our own managing editor, Steven Ewing, dubbed it Jennifer Slowpez in his review. While we celebrate its death, we're raising our glass towards a far smarter lineup for Lexus' entry level sedan. As previously reported, the new rear-drive-only IS 200t steps in at the bottom of the range. You can read all about it in our original post from late last month. Today's news focuses on the V6. While the 3.5-liter V6 from the IS 350 will soldier on unchanged, Lexus is adding a detuned variant of Toyota's popular six-cylinder to create the IS 300 AWD. Where the IS 350 pumps out 306 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque, the all-wheel-drive-only IS 300 comes to party with a more relaxed 255 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque. That's still a hell of a lot more power than the old IS 250 AWD, which offered just 204 hp and 185 lb-ft of torque. So, there we have it – IS 200t, IS 300 AWD, IS 350, and IS 350 AWD. And of course, Lexus' performance minded F Sport package is available regardless of engine, giving owners a sharper and more stylish character for their sedan. You can check out the nitty gritty details on Lexus' rejiggering of the IS range below. Lexus IS Sport Sedan Gets Revved Up In 2016 With Three Available Engines 2.0L Twin-Scroll Turbocharged Gas Engine for New IS 200t New 3.5L V6 Engine Provides More Options for All-Weather Drive with IS 300 AWD Agile Handling Throughout IS Lineup Available F SPORT Package Heightens Driving Experience July 24, 2015 2016 Lexus IS Sedan Product Information The Lexus IS luxury sport sedan models will continue to delight drivers with their balance of luxury, agility and sportiness as they enter 2016 model year with a three model strategy with IS 200t, IS 300 AWD, and IS 350. The former IS 250 and IS 250 AWD are discontinued. The IS adds to its stable of engines and receives a turbocharged gas engine, bringing the number of engine alternatives to three. Drivers will have a hard time deciding which IS to take home with rear-wheel drive (RWD), all-weather drive (AWD) and F SPORT variants. The new IS 200t, available as RWD only, features a 2.0-liter twin-scroll turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine with intercooler paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission. This engine cranks out 241 hp and has 258 lb.-ft. torque at 1,650-4,400 rpm.
