subject: Barrington Lexus Dealer Has Details Of New Ct 200h [print this page]


The luxury market is not exempt from the progressions that the automotive industry is making in terms of efficiency and reliability. A lot of manufacturers have already adapted a new approach to vehicle development, with everyone from BMW to Mercedes launching cars with cutting-edge engine technology. Some of the lag is due to the reputation that luxury cars have attained over the years; luxury drivers arent opposed to fuel efficiency, but they dont want to see their drives lacking in the power that has made the brands the names they are today.

Lexus Barrington dealers are also getting in on the fuel economy revolution, and the luxury manufacturer appears to be drumming up some noise over the coming release of its new CT 200h. While the car isnt set to launch until this years Geneva Auto Show, a group of online car blogs first were offered spy shots of the new model. Now, it turns out that the brochure for the car has leaked online, and Chicago used Lexus dealers are excited to find out exactly what their lineup is going to look in future years.

Based on last years LF-Ch concept model, the new CT 200h is impressively toned down in terms of design. The car is now much less aggressive looking, which seems to be fine for Barrington Lexus drivers, who pick their brand based on a conspicuous but not flashy attention to detail. Slightly longer than the Audi A3 Sportback and more compact than the Toyota Prius, the five-door CT 200h measures in at 4,320mm long, 1,765mm wide and 1,430mm tall. In direct competition with the BMW 1-Series, the new Lexus CT 200h is poised to hit Barrington Lexus showroom floors with a vengeance.

Chicago used Lexus dealers can barely wait to get their hands on this fine vehicle, which will premier at the Geneva Auto Show (as noted above). The hybrid drivetrain that powers the new CT 200h couples a 1.8-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with an electric-drive motor-generator, but we dont have many details on what kind of power output it will have. New and used Chicago Lexus dealers are confident that the power will be good enough (if not better) than Lexus fans might expect from a hybrid luxury vehicle. Regardless, we will find out soon enough, so keep your fingers crossed. Because the car is a full hybrid, owners can drive it in all-electric mode, leveraging a nickel-metal hybride battery pack that delivers power to the front wheels using an electrically controlled continuously variable transmission.

Its a good thing Lexus is almost ready to launch this car. In a market that has been plagued by sales drops and consumer disinterest as of late, even the luxury manufacturers have to pull their weight to stay competitive. In fact, the luxury market had more of a need to employ fuel efficient technology; where do you think all the power came from? Gas-guzzling engines, of course. But hopefully we have seen the end of that era, and Lexus is contributing to our hopes.
