Rumor has it Lexus is going to enter the compact luxury car segment.
Despite reports last year that the Japanese automaker had no intentions to create a model smaller than the CT 200h, Australia website Motoring is reporting that Lexus will actually debut an all-new B-segment compact car that will serve as a direct rival to the Audi A1. If the compact model is approved for production it won’t be released globally until 2018 after Lexus pushes its second-generation CT to market.
