Is it really coming? Lexus shows more of new supercar

October 30, 2025

Lexus Sport Concept

All indications are that Lexus is working on a new supercar. At the Japan Mobility Show, the brand is showing more of the Sport Concept – a study model that looks more and more like a production-ready car. We already saw the exterior during Monterey Car Week, but now we finally get a look at the interior. That’s anything but boring.

A cocoon

The Sport Concept has an interior that focuses entirely on the driver. The latter is surrounded by screens, buttons and a yoke steering wheel. Everything breathes one thing: focus. Lexus itself calls it a “cocoon-like” interior. The separation between driver and passenger is literally palpable thanks to a high center console that somewhat divides the interior in two.

Hybrid heart?

Lexus is still keeping its lips sealed about what’s under the hood, but the digital gauges are already giving something away. On the screen we see indicators for “Power” and “Charge,” plus a battery level of 70 percent. Combine that with a distinct ‘M’ on the display – presumably for Manual mode – and you get a strong suspicion that this supercar will have a hybrid powertrain. Whether that will be a V8 with electric support or a completely new configuration remains to be seen. What is certain: Lexus wants to make a real driver’s car again.

LC and LFA

In terms of looks, the Sport Concept looks like a mix of the Lexus LC and the LFA. A long hood, wide hips, an active rear wing and prominent LED lights give it a brutal look. There are no changes on the exterior since its debut in Monterey, suggesting that Lexus wants to stay close to this design. Whether this Lexus Sport Concept will eventually actually go into production has not yet been officially confirmed, but the chances seem high.
