Sleek new Lexus LF-ZC concept previews 2026 electric saloon

The new Lexus LF-ZC concept is a preview of a premium electric saloon set to launch in 2026, designed to rival the BMW i4 and the forthcoming Audi A4.

Lexus has unveiled two EV concepts at the Tokyo motor show: the LF-ZC and the LF-ZL. The LF-ZC represents the future of Lexus with its sleek design and a focus on delivering an exhilarating driving experience, while the LF-ZL previews a future flagship SUV.

Both models carry the LF – Lexus Future – nameplate, a designation used by the company for its concept cars and the production LFA.

The LF-ZC saloon measures 4750mm in length, 1880mm in width, and 1390mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2890mm. This makes it slightly wider but around 200mm shorter than the current Lexus ES, the smallest saloon offered by the brand in the UK.

The LF-ZC features a low-slung and aerodynamically optimized design, boasting a drag coefficient of less than 0.2. This focus on aerodynamics enhances efficiency and range.

The exterior design showcases the latest iteration of Lexus’s design language, with aerodynamic optimization taking center stage. The front end retains the signature Lexus ‘spindle’ design, while the flared rear wheel arches contribute to the car’s assertive stance.

Inside the LF-ZC, the driver is presented with a bold steering yoke, reflecting the use of a steer-by-wire system first seen on the Lexus RZ. The main controls are spread across the cockpit area on digital pads. The left pad handles operation functions such as safety systems, driver assistance features, and drive mode selections, while the right pad groups audio, climate control, and other functions.

The windscreen features a ‘distant view meter’, which projects information onto it similar to a head-up display. The car also includes digital side mirrors designed to minimize distractions by reducing shifts in the driver’s focus.

Two Unique Lamborghini Supercars Spotted Outside The Sant’Agata Factory

While Lamborghini is looking towards the future with their upcoming electrified V12 Revuelto, they still have some surprises for us. Recently, automotive YouTuber Varryx captured footage of two mysterious Lamborghini models outside the company’s headquarters in Sant’Agata, Bolognese. These one-off supercars represent the brand’s V12 heritage and are believed to be the Invencible Coupé and Auténtica Roadster.

Lamborghini Centro Stile, the brand’s design studio, worked closely with the owners to create these bespoke vehicles. Although most of the body design is hidden under camouflage wraps, some key features are noticeable, including Sián-style taillights and an engine cover inspired by the Sesto Elemento. These unique models also introduce some new elements to Lamborghini, such as a fixed swan neck rear wing. The drive-by clips suggest that Invencible and Auténtica pay homage to Lamborghini’s iconic V12 engine.

As we look forward to the future of Lamborghini with models like the Revuelto, we now have even more to anticipate with the introduction of Invencible and Auténtica. To see all the current Lamborghini models available for sale, visit duPont REGISTRY.
