Among many luxury brands, everyone thinks of BBA, but Lexus remembers the attention of the market with its excellent quality, especially in China, and is welcomed by low-key local tycoons, among which as its cost-effective choice, Lexus CT has maintained a relatively high degree of attention in the market. So should the strength of this car start in the end? Let's take a look at the details below.
First of all, in terms of appearance, the appearance of the current Lexus CT inherits the family style, the front face adopts the upper and lower integrated grille, the shape is very similar to spindle, the area is relatively large, and the grille with the gradient effect has a strong sense of visual impact. LED headlights have always had a sharper shape, which further enhances the visual experience, and the model is also equipped with a headlight cleaning function, which is relatively rare in luxury brands at this price point.
The body adopts a hatchback design, the front long and back short doors bring a certain sense of movement to the body, and the five-spoke wheels enhance the visual impact effect. The addition of yacht windows has become the focus of young people's car chat. In addition, as a compact hatchback, its length, width and height are 4360/1765/1455mm, and the wheelbase is 2600mm, which is not outstanding in the same class in size.
The tail of the car looks relatively calm as a whole, and although the tail lights are designed through, the size looks relatively large and the recognition is very high. The rear of the car is more sharp, but there is no bilateral exhaust layout, less sporty.
Lexus CT in the interior did not bring too many surprises, the entire central control design is still an early design style, did not use a new family design language, the sense of technology is relatively lacking, only the high-end model with a 7-inch central control LCD screen, in addition to the physical buttons are more, and the style is also somewhat incompatible with the interior design of the current car, although it does not look fashionable, but it is more practical but true, including the function. A large number of soft materials are also used in the materials in the car, and the sense of grade is more prominent.
In terms of power, the Lexus CT series is equipped with a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine and a 48V motor to form a light mixing system. Among them, the maximum power of the engine is 73 kW, the maximum torque is 142 N·m, and the system comprehensive power can reach 100 kW, matching the E-CVT stepless gearbox. This set of powertrain will not bring a strong power output, its biggest feature is fuel economy, it is reported that the car's NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption is only 4.6L, compared to the same level of competitors, obviously the advantages of Lexus CT are more obvious.
Overall, the exterior design of Lexus CT still attracts many young consumers, but its interior styling is too outdated, and the power is not in line with the tastes of young people, but the fuel economy is very outstanding. If you need a niche model of a luxury brand that doesn't require too much power and interior design, then lexus CT is one of the best options.
