Японы автомашин үйлдвэрлэгч Lexus брэнд домогт LFA загварынхаа залгамж халааг цахилгаан хөдөлгүүртэйгээр бүтээж байна.
Анх 16 жилийн өмнө танилцуулагдаж байсан анхны Lexus LFA загвар нь 375,000 ам.долларын үнэтэй, ердөө 500 ширхэг үйлдвэрлэгдсэн хязгаарлагдмал цуврал байв. Тухайн үед зах зээлээс хүлээж байсан хүлээлтэд бүрэн нийцээгүй ч, хожим жолоодлогын гайхамшигт шинж чанараараа автомашины ертөнцийн сонгодог бүтээл болж, өдгөө хоёрдогч зах зээл дээр үнэ цэнэ нь 800,000 ам.доллароос давжээ.
Шинэ загварын хувьд хуучин LFA-ийн намхан, өргөн их бие, урт урд хэсэг зэрэг дизайны онцлог шинжийг хадгалсан байна. Тухайлбал, дээвэр дээрх агааржуулалтын нүх нь хуучин загварын яндангийн системд хүндэтгэл үзүүлж буй хэлбэр юм. Дотоод засал нь илүү орчин үеийн шийдэлтэй боловч суудал болон салоны ерөнхий хэв маяг нь анхны загвартай ижил төстэй байхаар бүтээгджээ.
Техникийн хувьд хамгийн том өөрчлөлт нь хөдөлгүүрийн системд орсон бөгөөд шинэ LFA нь бүрэн цахилгаан хөдөлгүүртэй байх болно. Хэдийгээр одоо танилцуулагдаад буй загвар нь хөдөлгүүргүй, статик прототип боловч үйлдвэрлэлийн эцсийн хувилбар нь 1,000 хүртэлх морины хүчтэй, нэг цэнэглэлтээр 700 км-ээс хол зам туулах чадвартай байх төлөвтэй байна.
Зах зээлд 2029 он орчимд гарахаар хүлээгдэж буй уг автомашиныг хэдхэн зуун ширхэгээр хязгаарлан үйлдвэрлэх бөгөөд үнийн хувьд 500,000 ам.доллароос давах төлөвтэй байна. Зарим шинжээчид Toyota GR GT загварыг цахилгаан бус хөдөлгүүртэй тул LFA-ийн жинхэнэ оюун санааны залгамжлагч хэмээн нэрлэж байгаа юм.

The new Lexus LFA is almost here, and we had the chance to see it in person.
It’s spectacular, mostly because it’s a modern-day version of the old LFA.
And it’s not vaporware: it’ll eventually make it to production.
There’s only one caveat, though.
This car has become iconic almost by accident
When the Lexus LFA was unveiled around 16 years ago, very few people ‘got it’.
Everyone was like ‘what is this?’
No one was expecting a supercar from a non-supercar brand, and no one understood what it was for, and why it was so expensive.
When it first came out, the MSRP was $375,000, which was absolutely crazy at the time, and it was limited to 500 units.
But then things changed when people actually started driving it.
Most journalists praised it after driving it, and then people (slowly) started buying it.
Fast-forward to 2026, the LFA is an icon.
And even the $375,000 price tag sounds like a bargain.
A, because (unfortunately) most supercars today cost well over $375,000 and B, because the LFA appreciated significantly.
The average market value for a second-hand one today is north of $800,000.
And now there’s a new one.
The new LFA is incredibly faithful to the old one, but with a catch
Supercar Blondie’s newest presenter, Chloe, was able to take a closer look at the LFA.
The first thing that stands out is the styling.
It has the same long and wide hood and the same low-slung, cab-rearward proportions.
You even have a little square vent on the roof that’s a tribute to the exhaust system in the old car.
The key difference is under the hood.
Toyota, Lexus’ parent company, made a strategic decision.
The Japanese automaker is famously not super keen when it comes to electric cars, but they decided to unveil the new LFA as an electric car.
And that means that some people are calling the Toyota GR GT the true spiritual successor to the LFA because the GR GT, unlike the new Lexus LFA, is not electric.
The car that Chloe was able to check out in the metal doesn’t actually have an engine, though.
It’s a stationary prototype, with no motor, but we do know that the finished product will be more powerful and faster than the GR GT, with an expected range of over 430 miles (700 km) and a power output pushing toward 1,000 horsepower.
Another key difference is the interior, which is a lot more modern than it was in the original LFA, but it has the same flavor, so to speak.
Even the seats have the same shape, which is a nice touch.
Another interesting feature is the yoke wheel, even though it’s unclear whether the final production model will also feature it.
Speaking of which, a production version is rumored for around 2029 with an expected price tag well north of $500,000.
Production should be limited to a few hundred units.
