Lexus CT200h F-Sport arrives in the UK

The Lexus CT200h F-Sport gets a range of exterior and interior styling enhancements, extra equipment, as well as a modified suspension system which promises to give the Lexus hybrid hatchback sharper handling.

Lexus says it has made the CT 200h F-Sport more engaging for the driver by changing the coil spring rates and replacing the standard Showa shock absorbers with sports-tuned Kayaba dampers. The exterior, meanwhile, gets 17-inch dark-finish alloys, a larger rear spoiler, flared side skirts, a mesh front grille and newly styled front and rear bumpers.

Inside, the CT200h F-Sport builds on the SE-L trim level, and adds a new flat-bottom steering wheel and aluminium pedals and scuff plates, as well as cruise control, F-Sport black leather upholstery, heated front seats, electric driver’s seat adjustment, auto-dimming electro-chromatic electrically retractable door mirrors and a rear parking camera that links to a display in the rear-view mirror. Available options include an HDD navigation system combined with Lexus’s Remote Touch control, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, back guide monitor and 10-speaker audio package, along with parking sensors and a sunroof.
