LEXUS have made a huge pitch for the premium company car market with the launch of its super sports luxury saloon, the GS F.
Unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit the new GS F is the latest addition to Lexus’s F-designated stable of high performance models.
With a lusty 5.0-litre 470bhp V8 engine, the GS F promises to deliver sports car performance and handling but in a luxury saloon car package.
Based on the current GS saloon, it retains the four-door format and can comfortably seat five adults, breaking new ground as the largest car yet to bear the Lexus F badge.
Yukihiko Yaguchi, chief engineer, explained: “Our cars with the F designation are meant to generate a very positive feeling when you’re behind the steering wheel, and are designed to be fun to drive, no matter who’s driving, or where.
