LEXUS LF - CC


dhibu | 8:50 AM | , , , , , , ,

      Following the world premiere of the award winning sports coupe, the LF - LC, LEXUS is now coming with a new mid segment concept coupe - Lexus LF - CC concept, which is premiered in the 2012 Paris Motor Show. The full hybrid rear wheel drive concept shares many design elements with the LF CC coupe and this concept will be an inspiration for the new D segment Lexuses in future.



DESIGN / Interior:
      The total design of the car is based on new L - theme design language. The famous Lexus 'spindle' grille starts from the ending of the bonnet and extends over to the tip of the bumper with a radical zig shape. Grille is fully chrome plated mesh type. The sporty cutting at the side of the grille integrates an air intake and makes the front really 3D. The three high beam head lamps are placed between the upper and lower fender with separate day time running light. A unique shoulder line starts from the tip of the grille and extends over the bonnet and merge over to the door panels and end at the tail lamps, over the integrated spoiler. Side profile is sharp and sporty with an air scoop cutting on the body near the rear wheel. this plays a major role in increasing the vehicle's aerodynamics. The rear is purely Lexus. The bumper is merging over to the rear wheel arches. The LED indicators are very sporty and extend over to the dickey door. The stop light is fitted on the shark antenna.


Interior:
     The interior gives a clue about what we can expect in the future models of Lexus and also introduces a more developed version of the 'Human Machine Interface' of the Lexus. The dash board consists of two parts, the upper zone for display and lower zone for operations. This makes the cabin spacious and functional. The driving position is low profiled and focused just like what you can see in an F1 car.


TECH SPECS:

Engine:     2.5 L  Full Hybrid
                4 Cyl  Petrol + Water Cooled, High O/P Permanent Magnet Electric Motor

BMW ACTIVE TOURER CONCEPT

      BMW's first premium compact tourer, the Active Tourer concept is presented in the 2012 Paris Motor Show.The electric plug - in concept also has the BMW e-drive concept.The vehicle is powered by a lithium ion battery and an intelligent engine control unit.


DESIGN:
      The body design is simply elegant at every angle. The premium quality painting is worth mentioning. Front position is uniquely BMW with slightly angled kidneys. Twin head lamps with LED lining and two big air intakes in the front bumper catches the attention. The brushed aluminium over hangs adds to its beauty. rear view mirrors are radically sporty with a chrome lining. The side profile is so sporty that it gives a dynamic feel to the car. Door openers are an integrated part of the body with very thick shoulder line.There is a small air-intake like over hang at the front door. The quarter glass at the front gives the driver good visibility.Vehicle fitted with 20 inch alloys. Rear is elegant with the typical L shaped Beamer tail lamps. Two brushed aluminium addings are also there at the bumper.

      The vehicle is 4350 mm long with a width of 1834 mm and height 1560 mm. It provides a fair amount of space and high level of comfort  with a fairly raised seating position. The wheel base is 2670 mm. the engine space is so compact and the batteries are placed under the load floor. The advantage is an increased interior space with enough space for the tourer storage.


      The interior is refreshingly new and bright. The door trim and seats have a light shade with an orange LED lining, which seems to be contrasting and sporty for the interior. The center console seems to be an extension from the dash board, which saves a lot of space and is highly user friendly. Dials are black. vehicle has a panoramic sun roof. Seats are supportive with integrated head rests and ample leg room. Totally decent and fair!! 

      Another high light is the new Multi-functional instrument display - which is a 10 inch LED screen which makes display an experience, rather than the conventional analog dials.
