The Lexus LFR specs are not official: “LFR” is an unconfirmed name that has been used for a rumoured successor to the Lexus LFA, and Lexus has not published power, weight, price or a launch date for any car called LFR. Figures such as 900 hp or a sub-3-second 0-60 time you may see online are speculation.
Quick Answer
No Lexus LFR has been announced. What is confirmed: the original LFA ended production in 2012 with a 4.8-liter V10 making about 553 hp, and in December 2025 Toyota showed a battery-electric Lexus LFA Concept alongside the Toyota GR GT, a 641 hp twin-turbo V8 hybrid. Whether a production Lexus supercar follows, and what it is called, has not been confirmed.
Is there a Lexus LFR?
Reports in October 2024 said a possible LFA successor, “possibly called LFR,” had been spied testing at the Nürburgring. That is a media nickname, not a Lexus announcement. Treat any dimension, output or price tied to the LFR name as unverified.
Confirmed facts: the original Lexus LFA

Confirmed facts: what Toyota showed in December 2025
On December 5, 2025, Toyota premiered the GR GT, a front-engine sports car with a 4.0-liter (3,998 cc) twin-turbo V8, a transaxle-mounted hybrid motor and an 8-speed automatic. Toyota quotes about 650 PS (641 hp) and 850 N-m (627 lb-ft), a kerb weight of around 1,750 kg and a length of 4,820 mm. Production is planned for 2027. See our Toyota GR GT specs for the full breakdown.
Toyota also announced a battery-electric Lexus LFA Concept at the same event. No power figures were given for it. Toyota has not said whether a Lexus-badged road car will share GR GT hardware, so do not assume the GR GT numbers describe an “LFR”.
What the rumours claimed
- A hybrid twin-turbo V8 with over 900 hp.
- 0-60 mph in under 3 seconds and a top speed above 200 mph.
- A price above US$200,000 and very limited production.
- An early-2025 launch, which did not happen.
None of these have been confirmed by Lexus or Toyota. Pricing in Canada, if a car is ever offered, would be announced by Lexus Canada.
