According to many Asian and Russian websites, new LC200 is coming in August, minor facelift, but with new engine 4cly 2.8l diesel with 200hp. Not sure if we can trust the numbers but 2.8l is coming according to article posted few posts above, so it is cool that it is coming to LC200 as well.

I could definitely see this being popular in the EUR market but for NA market? at only 115bhp and 85ft-lb tq... the fuel efficiency is there, but i can only really see this being used as a little city "tootling around" type car. In NA you cant get around really without use of the freeways, and not sure if this will make it on the freeways. I figure its technology thats a bit too expensive for the Yaris or Scion iQ? if this were put in the Lexus LF-SA theeeen itd be a fairly expensive car for what you get and the purpose would be very limited

It has more torque than 1.8l in Corolla right now... not to mention that it has that torque from very low RPM and it is not peaky like 1.8l.
So for highways, this is actually better than 1.8l engine.... heck it is likely better in every way than 1.8l, maybe only initial response will be faster in 1.8l.
