Lexus turbocharged four-cylinder coming in late 2014 or early 2015

by SpeedLux

Lexus will unveil their first turbocharged vehicle in late 2014 or early 2015 as per the recent report.

The report by Automotive News says that the engine will be a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder which will likely debut in the upcoming NX crossover. There’s no word on specifications currently, but the engine could eventually replace the 2.5-liter V6 that is used in the IS 250.

Considering that existing engine generates 204 hp (152 kW) and 185 lb-ft (250 Nm) of torque, the new turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder will likely have a higher output.

The engine will eventually be offered in other models as well and one possible candidate is the Toyota RAV4.

Lexus is expected to introduce an NX concept at Tokyo Motor Show this year and so we can expect to have more information in the coming months.
