here is the info about the car :

Lexus BS

Since all Topmarken expands downward, there are also with Lexus considerations to a new basis model in the compact class. Model is the space concept of Mercedes with A less here and UC-lets, but the sporty Riege around BMW with the 1er and AUDI with the A3 sport-bake. Planned internally a Sporthatch of compact cars mentioned. It could the contraction BS carry and is on the shortened platform of the new IS be based, which would mean as with the 1er-BMW rear-wheel drive.

The BS is laid out as Viertuerer with Hecklappe, whereby the grasps for the two fondtueren are integrated as with Alfa Romeo like that in the frameworks that the car works at first sight coupéhaft like a Zweituerer. As engines Vierzylinder Benziner and turbo-Diesel as well as a Otto-V6 are intended - in each case coupled at six-course switching or automatic transmission. All-wheel drive should be later just as available as a hybrid version than top model. Earliest introduction date: At the end of of 2008.
