To evaluate a car of this class you need to focus on the smallest
details. Every detail, visible or hidden from view, down to the smallest nut, was precisely
designed and built to not only perform but look good too.
Looking at the Lexus LFA will only take a few minutes to understand what a supercar is.
Well worth the money and the price tag of $375,000 is quite reasonable. By the way, in order to prevent

All companiesIt was like that before, when Japanese concern Lexus focused exclusively on the market of premium sedans and crossovers along with SUVs. And in 2010, the start of sales of the magnificent racing model Lexus LFA (pictured).
The debut of the Lexus LFA 2019 was like a bolt from the blue. After all, this was the first step in a field in which Lexus had no experience. However, Toyota engineers had it in abundance. The result is a delightful car, almost piece-by-piece, striking the imagination. Moreover, the Lexus lfa impressed in almost any form - appearance, technical equipment, power supply, dynamics, price.

The exterior of the Lexus LF-A looked amazing. Squat silhouette, aggressively squinted head optics, front bumper with a wide air intake cutout. Hood with special openings for pressurization. Everything about this new Lexus racer was functional: the rear side panels acquired holes to improve aerodynamics, and slots in the sills ensured the most efficient cooling of the brake system.
The Lexus LFA was equipped with 20-inch alloy wheels, as well as several exclusive body colors. Despite its relatively large dimensions for a sports car, the model gave the impression of a very light, lean and fit car.
F stands for functionalism
The interior of the Lexus LFA was subordinated to functionality. Engineering genius reigned here. Almost everything is covered in leather, the sports steering wheel is effectively cut downwards, and the interior itself is replete with carbon inserts. If desired, you could buy a Lexus lfa with an interior completely trimmed in leather or Alcantara, as well as in one or two colors.

The seats of the Lexus LFA have excellent lateral support, but the seat belt does not tightly press people of fragile build, and rearward visibility is difficult due to the highly upturned stern. However, this is a problem with almost all supercars.

Built to Defeat
The engine for the racing Lexus was also a work of engineering art. 10-cylinder V-shaped gasoline engine, with a volume of 4.8 liters, fully justified the price of the Lexus LF-A. No manuals or diesels. This engine was practically perfect. The specific power of the Lexus LFA engine was about 560 hp. at a torque of 480 N/m.
All the power of the Lexus LFA was transmitted to rear drive using an automatic 6-speed transmission. With these parameters, the car could reach a speed of 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds. And at the same time, fuel consumption in civilian mode remained very adequate - less than 20 liters of gasoline per 100 km.
In addition to everything, the Lexus LFA designers did not forget about comfort and safety. As standard, the car was equipped with climate control, cruise control, multiple airbags and auxiliary systems type ABS+EBD, ASR, ESP. It is noteworthy that the first batch of cars was sold out before the start of sales.
No one was scared by either the price of the Lexus Lfa 2019 or the mandatory prepayment of 25 thousand euros. Unfortunately, none of the first cars appeared in Russia. The cost of these machines was about 375-400 thousand. For the most part, the fate of the Lexus LFA is to end up in the collections of extravagant millionaires, to be a weekend car, content with driving a couple of hundred kilometers per year.
Reach the predecessor
The first generation of the Lexus LFA model has long been discontinued. However, the reviews from owners and experts about the Lexus LFA were so good that the company's management decided to release the next generation of the sports car. The new generation is called Lexus lf lc. Japanese designers did not get away with simple restyling, but practically re-developed the model, giving it absolutely new body and ultra-modern power unit.
The appearance of the car is simply amazing. Futuristic triple headlights consisting of LEDs, dagger-narrow rear-view mirrors, streamlined shapes, and a panoramic roof. This is exactly what a car from the future should look like. And at the back, the Lexus LFA is memorable for its stylish L-shaped brake lights and dual pipes exhaust system rectangular section. The only thing that makes it clear that this is a regular Lexus is the recognizable LFA radiator grille, made in a corporate style (see photo).
Beyond modernity
The interior of the Lexus LFA is also designed to impress. This is an amazing alloy latest technologies and excellent style. There are practically no ordinary buttons here - 95% of the functions are controlled through the information touch display on the center console, and the Lexus LFA digital instrument panel has a lot of configurations and is designed to convey a wide variety of information to the driver. The only usual buttons or accessories are the red engine start button on the steering wheel on the right and the audio system control buttons on the left. 
The frame of this racing car is made of reinforced carbon fiber with the addition of magnesium alloys and aluminum. If we talk about price, then in production the Lexus Lfa 2019 2020 is cheaper than its predecessor, which had a completely carbon chassis. In addition, this approach to chassis development helped make the car even lighter, and therefore more dynamic and economical.
On the cutting edge of technology
Two options have been developed as a motor for the Lexus LFA 2019 2020. The first is a well-known sports sedan Lexus GS-F engine producing 477 hp. and 519 N/m of torque. The only difference is that for the Lexus LFA the unit was subjected to certain tuning and now it works in tandem with an ultra-modern 10-band automatic machine Aisin, producing more than 500 horses. Also, according to latest news, a hybrid engine is expected. 
Moreover, as per dynamic characteristics, and in terms of cost, Lexus model lfa 500h will not be inferior to its gasoline counterpart. Claimed acceleration to hundreds, which sports coupe Lexus confirmed on a test drive (see video) it was about 5.5 seconds versus 4.5 seconds for petrol version. But at the same time, the hybrid’s appetite is almost half as much.
Newer does not mean more expensive
At the same time, the Lexus LFA 2019 will already be in basic configuration be equipped with navigation, panoramic roof, multimedia system, climate control and a lot of different electronic assistants, also security systems. 
Lexus LFA is not yet officially on sale, so it is not possible to accurately answer the question of how much it costs and where to buy it. But, according to statements by the company's management, the price of the Lexus lfa model will be significantly less than its predecessor. In America they plan to sell it for an amount from 100 to 150 thousand. In rubles, this figure sounds more significant - from 6.5 to 9.5 million rubles. Expected Lexus competitors The LFA LC will become the Lamborghini Hurricane and the Ferrari 458 Italia.
The price in Russia has not yet been announced. In addition, the model is unlikely to appear on domestic market earlier than mid-2019. The only thing that can be said is that this car will definitely not be mass-produced, although it will obviously sell more widely than its predecessor, which was released in a limited edition of 500 copies. And taking into account the peculiarities of customs duties and tax payments, it will be possible to buy a Lexus lfa in Moscow for an amount of about 9-10 million rubles. Taking this into account, it is quite possible that soon there will be two or three more luxury sports cars on the streets of the capital.
It is engaged in the construction of business class cars, but this is their very first sports car with great characteristics and its name is Lexus LFA.
Before this vehicle arrived mass production 3 concepts of this model were presented. All the concept cars of this car are not particularly similar to what happened in the end.
The first concept was presented in 2005, the second in 2007, and the third in 2008. After all these concepts production car was shown in 2009 at the Tokyo Motor Show. The car was sold to the buyer's order, and sales and, accordingly, production were completed in 2012 and 500 cars were sold over the entire period.
Exterior
The design of the car is made in a sporty style, but still slightly different from the typical sports cars. The design itself may not be liked by many, since everyone has different tastes.
The front part of the Lexus LFA car is decorated with an aerodynamic hood. The optics of the model are beautiful and narrow, and the filling is lenticular. The massive bumper has attractive aerodynamic elements. There is a large grille in the middle, and there are air intakes on the right and left that lead air to the front brakes.
The profile of the coupe has huge wheel arches, in which the 20th disks are located. At the top and bottom there are beautifully designed aerodynamic elements leading to the air ducts. The top one cools the engine, and the bottom one rear brakes. The rear view mirrors are mounted on a small foot.
The rear part is equipped with beautiful narrow optics, under which there are huge grilles that remove air from the engine. On the hood there is a small retractable spoiler that can rise quite high. The massive bumper received 3 exhaust pipes, which are laconically inserted above the diffuser.
Coupe dimensions:
- length – 4505 mm;
- width – 1895 mm;
- height – 1220 mm;
- wheelbase – 2605 mm;
- ground clearance - 115 mm.
Specifications
The most interesting thing here is, of course, the power unit. This motor was developed by the company. In the end it turned out V-twin engine V10 with a volume of 4.8 liters. The engine power is 560 horsepower.
This motor transmits all torque only to rear wheels, and the motor works together with robotic box 6-speed gears.
The engine is naturally aspirated and does not have any supercharging systems in the form of turbines or compressors, this has made it possible to reduce the fuel consumption of the Lexus LFA. This engine Only 98 gasoline is required, but there is no data on how much, but rest assured that it consumes a lot.
The motor installed in the car allows the car to reach a speed of 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, and maximum speed is 325 km/h. The car is stopped using ceramic brakes equipped with ventilation.
Salon
Sports seats upholstered in red leather were installed for the driver and passenger. The seats will provide good support during sharp turns. By the way, the door opens interestingly; there is a button at the top, this is done for aerodynamics.
Most of the steering wheel is made of carbon fiber, the hand rests are covered in leather, and inner part made of aluminum. On the steering wheel there is a multimedia control selector and an engine start button. There are chrome paddle shifters on the steering wheel. The instrument panel is a display. It features electronic tachometer, designed in the form of a large analog gauge, the speedometer is located in the middle. Along the edges are the rest of the sensors, everything is designed really beautifully.
The center console is more like a tunnel, gradually going from top to bottom. There is a small display on it multimedia system, under which there are many buttons to control it. The climate can also be adjusted there, there are a lot of buttons and there is a touchpad for more convenient use.
Opposite the passenger glove box with leather trim. In general, the upholstery materials will please many - leather, Alcantara and carbon fiber.
Lexus LFA price
As already stated, this model 500 pieces were sold. Price basic version started at $375,000, with some options going up to $500,000. A small number of cars were nevertheless delivered to our country, one of them was tested by our Russian car reviewer.
This is certainly a successful development by Lexus, so we can confidently say that it good car, which we most likely will not be able to buy, even if we have the required amount. Dynamic performance is on par, but unfortunately the manufacturer no longer produces similar models like the Lexus LFA.
