I will keep you all updated on any new changes or features as they become available.
Awesome, thanks for the info .

This is actually a good point you brought up, one I forgot about.

The Lexus USA site in the past has been found to have a few inaccuracies.

The CT200h in Geneva being a prototype would actually make some sense, since it has no rear wiper of any kind, and the photoshop of the rear wiper on the Lexus USA site looks awfully small.

Also the gauge cluster is indeed customizable to an extent, similar to the LFA .

Paddle shifters? I thought it had a CVT.

I see... Well, I think it would be a great idea if Lexus had someone here on the forums to answer people's questions, get some feedback, and give us some inside info

It does have a CVT.

A number of CVTs have paddle shifters for 6 or so "simulated" gears or speeds that give the CVT the feel of a more conventional tranny. Lexus hoped to feature this on the CT 200h but ultimately decided against it.

wow, is that a keychain attached to the brochure? $12 is very reasonable, but the shipping of $9 is not. lol

Correct. My GS 450h has CVT and I can put into sport where it "simulates" gears and go from gear 1-6. It actually works and makes you feel as if you are changing gears. I rarely use it though, the CVT is very responsive.

That's gorgeous. I've always loved two toned leather interiors. I hope those options come to NA on more Lexus models.
