Perhaps it is a turbocharged 2.5 litre engine that was rumoured to be possible in the next gen LS????
Lexus with 4 cyl.
lol
here in Ukraine and Russia we have the diesel Engine on the LX beside the normal V8 gasoline
and the sales is maybe 1 Diesel to 20 Gasoline even it's cheaper and environment friendly and the Diesel prices are less than the Gasoline
in Europe you have 3 kind of people
Type 1: Lexus lovers , those whom see Lexus as Benz & BMW competitor and those never buy anything below the IS and from IS to up everyone choose the top optioned level
Type 2: Lexus haters, those whom believe that Lexus is just a tarted up Toyota , and those mainly if buy they buy ES & RX
Type 3: (18-40) and those buy the CT & NX
Type 1 is the most buying power in Europe for Lexus which making the sales of the GS more than the ES (Finally thanks god). which they don't see CT , NX except for kids but not true lux. which saw ES & RX have no place in Lexus lineup and buy LX or GX from Russia and / or Ukraine because it can't be officially sold due to the environment code level, those are the true LS lovers that have no problem the flagship go sporty as much as it can be . but if they heard that the LS have even a V6 they may ditch all Lexus not even 4 cyl.
