 | | Lexus LF-SA |
With automated technologies for everyday life advancing rapidly, the LF-SA is a study model designed at the Nice, France-based design studio ED2(2), aimed at delivering the joy of total driving control. The LF-SA is a Lexus-first 2+2 ultra-compact vehicle that incorporates bold and exhilarating cutting-edge design trends and embodies the ultimate luxury that Lexus seeks.
LF-SA stands for Lexus Future Small Adventurer, expressing the concept's aim of delivering the joy of driving even as automated driving technologies become more prevalent.
The robust, urbanized exterior and driver-focused interior are a bold interpretation of the Lexus design philosophy, L-finesse(3).

Length: 3,450 mm
Width: 1,700 mm
Height: 1,430 mm
Main Features
Exterior
- Compact package provides the easy handling and agility essential for driving in urban areas
- Avant-garde sculpted body surface casts different shadows depending on the viewing angle and time of day
- Powerful, three-dimensional spindle grille that meshes with the front fenders highlights the vehicle's stability
- Bold undercutting above the wheel arches emphasizes the distinctive contours, conveying dynamism and powerful forward motion
- The rear design, which features angular, double-stepped styling combined with L-shaped lamp clusters, also expresses the spindle grille shape. In addition, Lexus trademark signatures such as the arrowhead motif are evident throughout the rear design
Interior
- In contrast to the compact exterior, the sweeping dashboard creates an impression of a roomy interior

- Two overlapping elliptical areas within the cabin created by differences in materials and volume reinforce the priority placed on the driver
- Crystalline instrument panel with black-beveled hologram display and heads-up display with touch pad in the center console creates a futuristic feel
