Lexus China announced in Shanghai last week that its fully hybrid hybrid car, the CT200h, officially landed in China. The price range of the four models was 279,000 yuan to 445,000 yuan, which became the first Lexus model in China to sell for less than 300,000 yuan. .

Not only that, this car also has several iconic "firsts" for Lexus: this is Lexus' first compact model, the first hatchback model, and the first car with a displacement less than 2.0L. In addition, it is also the first fully-hybrid hybrid compact luxury car in the entire automotive industry.

The most "small" Lexus CT200h is the most "small" Lexus model, and from a size point of view, this is a hatchback hatchback that is comparable to the BMW 1 Series and Audi A3. From a displacement perspective, this is Lexus' smallest row. The amount of models, the past Lexus has always been known for large displacement, although in the past two years launched a lot of "small displacement" luxury cars, but the displacement never lower than 2.0L.

CT200h is only 4320mm in length and has a wheelbase of 2600mm. However, the interior of the car body is relatively well-spaced through reasonable design. The trunk space can be divided into two levels of storage, with a capacity of 375 liters. If the rear seat is toppled, it will be more comfortable. 985 liters of storage space can be achieved and the hybrid system does not take up too much space.

In addition, the CT200h uses Lexus's second-generation hybrid electric power system. For the first time in the Lexus family, an in-line four-cylinder, 1.8-liter Atkinson cycle engine is installed. The maximum power and peak torque are 73 kW and 142 Nm, respectively. With the cooperation of the motor, the vehicle can achieve a maximum power of 100 kilowatts, and the peak torque output of the motor itself can reach 207 Newton meters, which provides sufficient traction for starting the vehicle and driving at a low speed. This level of power is already equivalent to the normal natural 2.0L intake.

In addition to displacement, the “small” power system is also reflected in fuel consumption and emissions. With the support of a powerful full hybrid system, the CT200h has a fuel consumption of only 4.6L per 100 kilometers, and only 107 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer. It is necessary to know that one person also needs about 30 grams of CO2 emitted by one kilometer.

Lexus "Change" The start of the CT200h's launch conference was "Change Your World." From Lexus China's message, Lexus not only wants to change the concept of car consumers through the CT200h, but the industry's reporters generally believe that it is less than $300,000. The starting price is very attractive, Lexus wants more consumers to experience the environmental protection of hybrid models, while CT200h is the beginning of Lexus "change".

From the CT200h can be seen vaguely Lexus this transition. The design of the CT200h is different from the low-key design of the Lexus models in the past. It is currently the most daring of Lexus models in China. Its spindle-shaped intake grille and some lines of the body outline a youthful appearance. In addition, the new GS debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show also uses a spindle-shaped intake grille, and the front face looks very impactful.

An executive from Lexus said at the press conference that "CT200h has opened the curtain for Lexus's change." In the future, Lexus products will be more passionate and younger. "The Lexus change has only just begun." The executive said In the upcoming Guangzhou auto show, consumers will further see Lexus' "change."
