Lexus has confirmed that its New York motor show star will be a concept called the LF-Gh that offers “a glimpse into the future of Lexus design”.

The firm is keeping coy about the details until the car is unveiled at a special preview event on April 19 ahead of the show’s opening to the press the following day.

However, the car’s name stands for Lexus Future G-series hybrid, and is expected to preview the replacement for the current GS saloon (pictured) which is due to arrive in 2012. 

Tipped to be inspired by the angular, sculpted look of the LFA supercar, the next GS will be hybrid only and feature a plush interior that moves the car further upmarket than before.

The GS is also expected to grow in size, and will use a larger version of the platform that also underpins the next generation IS which arrives next year.

This car has been widely anticipated ever since Lexus introduced the Hybrid Lexus LS. Due to it's enormous boot the original LS was loved by golfers who reputedly constituted 85% of owners. The Hybrid version almost halved the space while hiking the price 25%. On my 3 year replacement it was goodbye Lexus. hello Mercedes S. However, my local Lexus outlet has already suggested that the GS replacement you refer to in your article will move up in size and sophistication. Lets hope they can find the 500 litre plus boot space we (golfers) all need.
