First images of Lexus LF-SA supermini leaks out

lexus-lf-sa-first-pix-001

The first official images of the new Lexus LF-SA concept have made their way onto the internet. Set to debut at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, it appears to be a B-segment premium hatchback that will slot in below the C-segment Lexus CT 200h hatchback. Will it be hybrid-only like the CT though?

There are not many premium brands that have ventured into the B-segment. There’s of course the Polo-based Audi A1, and BMW has the 3-door and 5-door MINI but has so far not fielded such a car under the BMW brand itself. If you consider Citroen DS a premium brand, then there’s the DS3 as well.

    • Why no one talks about VSC? Normally supporters like to comment on Toyota but got no balls when it comes to Lexus

      1 series is C segment. It’s a bit of a 3 series hatchback… Same with the Audi A4 and A3… the A3 is the hatchback version of the A4. Of course then Audi started to make things more confusing when they added an A3 sedan…

      In any case I’d see A4, 3 series etc. as D segment, though on the smaller side of things. The Japanese have grown really fat…

    this will later become an Aston Martin as well, just like what happened to Toyota iQ.

    a step taken by Aston Martin to average down its CO2 numbers as a manufacturer. (like how it is done by Lamborghini and Ferrari – reduced by VW/Seat/Skoda and Fiat/Alfa Romeo/Lancia in both VW & Fiat groups))
