Just in time for the Chicago Auto Show, Lexus has once again teamed up with Five Axis to produce a concept car — this time based on the CT 200h. Here’s a teaser sketch released today (which I’ve made to fit wallpaper size):
I’m a huge fan of the work that Five Axis & Lexus have done together — the Project IS-F & Project GS are two of my favorite Lexus show cars of all time. Can not wait to see what Troy Sumitomo and the Five Axis gang have in store for the CT 200h.

Update: Lexus put out a press release about the Chicago Auto Show, and it included this blurb about the Project CT:
The Chicago Auto Show will mark the debut of a highly-modified Five Axis Project CT that proves that hybrids can be aggressive. This CT 200h is complemented by a Five Axis custom widebody conversion, JDSU “Dark Passage” paint, and custom black accents. It sits low on a TEIN Flex coilover suspension system and custom 19-inch FIVE:AD forged wheels. The Five Axis Project CT also features a custom Ultrasuede® EcoDesign™ interior, custom touch screen interface center console and a Stoptech High Performance Big Brake Kit on the front.
Awesome.
