JAKARTA - The spiritual successor to the legendary Lexus LFA supercar is getting closer to reality. The latest spy photo leak shows that this highly anticipated two-door coupe is undergoing trials on the highway, and the most horrendous news is the possibility of a hybrid V8 twin-turbo machine.
Launching Car and Driver, Tuesday, June 24, the prototype unit of the future Lexus supercar was recently caught on camera racing on a mountainous road near Lake Big Bear, Southern California. These exclusive photos, taken by Car and Driver reader Kory Hughs, provide an up-to-date overview of the ramp and aggressive design of this car. Although the front is still covered in thick camouflage, the driver's side and the rear of the car are clearly visible, displaying four dashing exhaust tips. The presence of these four exhausts is a strong confirmation that there is an internal combustion engine powered behind the long, aerodynamic engine hood.
Although Lexus has yet to provide official confirmation, rumors are circulating that the supercar runway will combine a hybrid system with a twin-turbo V8 engine. If these rumors are true, we can expect outstanding performance and surprising efficiency from this combination of technologies.

This is not the first time this LFA successor has made a public appearance. Previously, this car was also caught on camera while being tested at the legendary N\"ourburgring circuit, Germany. The prototype seen in N\"urburgring has a different fixed back wing and a yellow warning sticker, indicating electric power next to the combustion engine. A source even claimed that the prototype was able to prey on N\"urburgring in less than eight minutes, suggesting tremendous performance potential.
Although its official name remains a mystery, some have speculated that this supercar will be named LFR. With the prototype that has now been tested on public roads, it is hoped that Lexus will soon provide more information in the next year. Experts predict the production version of LFA's successor will most likely debut as a 2027 model.
