Lexus have revealed full details on their Frankfurt concept car – the new Lexus LF-Ch Concept. Previously only one shot each of the front and rear respectively were revealed, but here comes the full press pack with hi-res photos.

A wheelbase of 2,600mm confirms suspicious that this will most likely be a Lexus-ified Toyota Auris. It’s a full hybrid and coincidentally Toyota is also exhibiting a hybrid version of the Auris at Frankfurt. Even with its Auris roots, design is pure L-finesse, which makes the car share a family resemblance with the IS sedan.

All we know right now is the car’s dimensions and the fact that it’ll be powered by a full hybrid, which means the possibility for a EV mode. The LF-Ch measures 4,300mm long, 1,790mm wide and 1,400 tall. Those large concept car wheels are 20 inches in size, wrapped with 225/35R20 tyres.

Look after the jump for hi-res images of the concept car.

    Mazda 3 MPS, i dun mean it..designing is very objective..never judge/criticise a design based on our own taste..we’re juz a small prawn in the huge lake..so sorry if my comment is ambiguous..

    toyota not only boring from design.
    their engine also boring.
    nil toyota car is champion.

    their car look like sporty but not fast.
    their fast car is slower than others fast car.
    they are still a boring car.
    boring people are driving toyota.

    Yeah right, like toyota going to produce the car exactly like above… dream on.
    Trust me knowing toyota they will play safe and go for more moderate but subtle styling… boring.
