2012 Lexus CT 200h Information (Including F-Sport Package Details)


Lexus has just released information on the 2012 CT 200h, which is entering its second model year after a brief 2011 production run.

As to be expected with a brand new model, not much has changed — the CT will be getting a new Vehicle Proximity Notification System (which helps alert pedestrians and cyclists of an oncoming vehicle under certain conditions by emitting a low audible warning sound), and a new Nebula Gray Pearl exterior color will replace Smoky Granite Mica.

The bigger news is official information on the CT 200h F-Sport package, which will be available on the existing Premium model — and even though I already shared the option list, here it is again for completion’s sake:

  • 17-inch wheels with high-gloss finish and F Sport wheel cap
  • Aluminum sport pedals
  • Black headliner
  • Black NuLuxe trimmed seats or perforated black leather-trimmed seats with white perforation holes
  • Exterior colors: Obsidian, Tungsten Pearl, Starfire Pearl, Nebula Gray Pearl, Matador Red Mica or Ultrasonic Blue
  • F Sport exterior badge
  • F Sport-tuned suspension
  • Front grille with mesh pattern
  • Larger rear spoiler
  • Leather-trimmed shift knob
  • Metallic front scuff plates
  • Metallic trim added to dash panel
  •  Perforated leather-trimmed steering wheel with F Sport logo

So far, there’s no pricing and no official photos, but I’m just happy to see Ultrasonic Blue as a color option with this package. More information as I get it.

If that sounds can be turned off, I'm fine with that.

I'm glad to hear they're doing an F-Sport package for the US. Too bad it doesn't have a body kit or front lip though.

    Yeah -- but I'm sure the body kit will be available for purchase through one of the US online Lexus retailers.

Nice.... but I would rather a F-Model.... not the F-Sport ;)

I think that if Lexus is going to sell a F-Sport car from the factory it NEEDS to come with the lip/bumper STANDARD.... you shouldn't have to buy it separately.

Any idea on what the Proximity Notification System will sound like?

No doubt it's a very, very nice car.  But I cannot tolerate anything that looks like a station-wagon or truck.

    That doesn't look like a station wagon, it look like a cool sporty hatchback.
