The Annual EyesOn Award for the best concept car at the Detroit Motor Show has this year been given to the Lexus LF-LC Hybrid Sport Coupe.
The 2+2 Lexus LF-LC Hybrid Sport Coupe concept car was created by a team at Lexus's Calty studio in California. Their aim was to look at how a future Lexus design might take a 'more emotive and avant garde' approach whilst at the same time bringing in new eco-friendly technologies.
The car that they created, the LF-LC Hybrid Sport, has been named as the best concept car in the EyesOn Design Awards at the Detroit Motor Show. The EyesOn Awards are judged by a panel made up from leading car designers and design academics, and are given out to recognise skills and creativity in a range of areas for the design of both concept cars and production vehicles including 'Aesthetics and Innovation', 'Concept Implementation', 'Functionality', and 'Spirit of Industrial Design'.
The Lexus LF-LC Hybrid Sport incorporates aspects of the new Lexus design language, which was first introduced in the new GS 450h. The Vice President and General Manager of Lexus US Group Mark Templin commented on the award:
"The LF-LC is a striking design and breathtaking in its beauty. The team at Lexus quickly fell in love with this concept vehicle and it's rewarding to see that the industry agreed. Receiving the EyesOn Design Award is a great start to what promises to be a fantastic year for Lexus."
