A top executive this week broadly hinted that the automaker plans to launch a new, sexier Lexus model based on a concept car seen at the North American International Auto Show earlier this year.
The Lexus LF-LC concept coupe is "not only a hot-looking coupe, it's a hybrid," said Bob Carter, Toyota's senior vice president of automotive operations in the U.S., in a speech. "So you can look great while helping to meet the needs of our environment and society."
He says the concept has received a "fantastic reception," often code for "we're going to build it."
