デトロイトオートショーで公開予定のレクサスLF-LCコンセプトの画像が公開された！

デトロイトオートショーで発表される予定のレクサスLF-LCコンセプトの画像が公開されたようです。

以前からティザー画像が公開されていましたが、今回のは全体像や室内の細かいディティールまで公開されてます。

トヨタ（レクサス）にしてはかなり思い切ったデザインって感じで、ちょっとバタ臭さはあるものの（インパネは別として）このまま発売しても売れそうな気はしますね。

More photos of hybrid Lexus LF-LC Concept hit the web

Thanks to our friends over at Road & Track jumping the embargo gun, we received our first sneak peak of the Lexus LF-LC Concept. Now the rest of the story has been published, with R&T taking a thorough look at how Toyota’s California-based Calty Design Research facility came up with the look of the racy hybrid 2+2 coupe.

“Only a few written attributes were given as criteria: avant-garde beauty, originality, driving joy and unequaled technology,” according to the story, which says Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda himself weighed in with a mandate that the car “have the ‘wow’ factor.”

Lexus has been working on the LF-LC Concept for a year and a half, so the concept is no mere auto show roller. That kind of attention-to-detail shows in the new photos, especially inside the car. A finely detailed interior with wave designs stitched into the leather door panels is a nice touch that reinforces the car’s exterior design language, which R&T says Lexus is calling “tumbling ribbon.” The car also has a multi-layered instrument panel that looks like it could have been inspired by any number of sci-fi video games.

詳しくは上記サイトからご覧下さいって感じですけど、今までちょっと大人しかったレクサスのデザインがちょっと方向転換した印象ありますね。
