At the Tokyo Motor Show Lexus is unveiling the LF-Sh Concept, a prototype that previews the next generation of Lexus' flagship saloon.

Presenting the car, Lexus Development Centre Manager Takeshi Yoshida said: "The LF-Sh is conceived as the Lexus brand’s flagship saloon of the future and represents Lexus’s ‘pursuit of perfection’. It is an impressive and elegant vehicle that delivers high standards of ride quality, comfort, safety and environmental performance."

The Lexus LF-Sh is powered by a hybrid system combining electric motors and V8 petrol engine, driving all four wheels. This system offers benefits in terms of acceleration, while delivering much lower emissions levels than conventional engines with similar outputs.

The concept vehicle also incorporates ground-breaking systems designed to increase accident avoidance performance.
