Geneva, 86th Salon de l'Auto 2016 Described as a glimpse into the firm’s design and technology direction for a future flagship model, it’s the clearest indication yet of what we can expect from the next-generation LS range-topper. At 5300mm long, 2000mm wide and 1410mm high, it shades even the long-wheelbase version of the current car by 120mm in length, while it’s also a significant 125mm wider and a sleek 71mm lower. While luxury market rivals from Audi, BMW and Mercedes have very much stuck to a three-box look for their flagship saloons, the LF-FC concept suggests Lexus might adopt a more coupe-like silhouette for the next LS, with a low roofline and slim glasshouse. The look is accentuated by the concept’s 21-inch, carbonfibre-reinforced plastic alloy wheels, but Lexus has no plans to change its current spindle grille design, which is as imposing here as it is on production Lexus models. The mesh design is new however, and the firm’s dual-element front lights squint from prominent front wings.
