In a move to target customers looking for a bit more character in their cars, Lexus is expanding its UK lineup with the introduction of the CT 200h F-Sport, which is available to order now with first deliveries in January. On-the-road prices start from £27,850.
The new F-Sport grade brings a raft of unique exterior and interior styling goods, additional equipment features and perhaps more importantly, sharper handling thanks to a modified suspension.
Lexus says it has made the CT 200h F-Sport more engaging for the driver by changing the coil spring rates and replacing the standard Showa shock absorbers with sports-tuned Kayaba dampers.
On the outside, the CT 200h F-Sport gets 17-inch dark-finish alloys, a larger rear spoiler, flared side skirts, a mesh front grille and newly styled front and rear bumpers. Inside, there’s a new flat-bottom steering wheel and aluminium pedals and scuff plates.
The F-Sport is based on the SE-L equipment grade adding cruise control, F-Sport black leather upholstery, heated front seats, electric driver’s seat adjustment, auto-dimming (electrochromatic) electrically retractable door mirrors and a rear parking camera that links to a display in the rear-view mirror.
Available options include an HDD navigation system combined with Lexus’s Remote Touch control, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, back guide monitor and 10-speaker audio package, along with parking sensors and a sunroof.
