Lexus LC F project suspended, but new twin-turbo V8 lives on

Development of the Lexus LC F sportscar has reportedly been suspended, according to Japanese website Car Sensor. The flagship Lexus coupe was expected to be launched in late 2020 with a twin-turbo V8, with some rumours suggesting the car would be all-wheel-drive. On June 22 Toyota announced it would be gradually slowing its Japanese assembly lines, blaming COVID-19 for shrinking sales and dwindling factory output.
