Looks better and better, but I really hope there are some different wheel options!

And FWIW I really hope there is at least a plan to offer a CT300h - something with a bit more power for those who want it. I really like this little car but the powerplant in the 200h would never satisfy my daily life or driving habits.

The song got on my nerves. Nice preview vid. Still unsure about Lexus selling in this market.

I agree the looks continue to grow on me and I'm with MP that optional engine and/or AWD would be great.

^Not to be an ignorant American, but those numbers mean nothing to me. Does anyone have the gallon conversion?

1 gallon=62 miles

11.9 GALLONS/714 miles= 60 MPG? That can't be right.

Prius tank holds 11.9 gallons which is 45 liters so that sounds accurate.

I just did a straight conversion. Unless Lexus has some magic pixie dust I imagine this gets pretty close to the 50 MPG rating the Prius got.

I don't like the look at all. Why must it look like Mazda 3 or Subaru Impreza????

well it has the same drivetrain as the prius. However, wouldnt this be heavier and less aerodynamic? Im guessing it comes in at 48mpg or something combined unless there is some new tech to be unveiled

With bigger wheels and minor lowering, the new CT200h would look awesome. Can wait till it comes out. Much better styling than the HS250h. I hope that stated mpg is the real deal.

How much does the Prius curb? This is alleged to be the lightest Lexus ever built, which would be sub 3270lbs as per the IS300.
