Lexus has unveiled its first supercar. The LF-A took six years to get to come to shape and hence there is lot of expectation from this fast car.

The super car will carry a 4.8-litre V10 powerful powerplant under its bonnet. The engine will blow out a robust power of 552bhp and it is coupled with a transaxle six-speed automated sequential gearbox for smooth shifting of gears. The car is endowed with conventional rear-wheel drive.

The chassis and the body panels make use of excess carbon fibre reinforced plastic to give the car a lightweight for better aerodynamics. The appearance of the car commands attention; the supercar is splendidly designed, whether it’s on facade or inside the car. Hence, the typical Lexus virtues of quality and refinement are very much intact in this model.

The incredible LF-A comes in a blend of leather, carbon, aluminium and a super high tech TFT screen rev-counter. The steering wheel is light and electrically assisted unlike other supercars. The pedals are exquisitely designed with forged aluminium.

Just like other super car, the engine of the Lexus FL-A fares a little as it catches, but soon settles down to give a smooth and restful ride like all cars from Lexus stable. Moreover, the engine revs rise and fall so quickly and with such a sharp timbre that it feels like a pure race engine. The LF-A can sprint 0-100 km/h in 3.7seconds and can run at a top speed of 323km/h.

In true supercar fashion, Lexus is asking for a whooping amount of money for the LF-A and secondly because it will produce only 500 units. The LF-A supercar carries a super cost of Rs 3 Crore in the UK.

Let us hope Toyota decides to bring in a few of these to India!
