Video: Lexus' Calty design team on their LF-LC concept

Lexus has released an official video of its Lexus LF-LC concept, winner of the ‘Best Concept Car' at the 2012 EyesOn Design Awards.

The video features comments from the design team at the company's Calty studio in Newport Beach, California, including Project Chief Designer William Chergosky, Senior Creative Designers Edward Lee and Ben Chang, Studio Manager Ian Cartabiano as well as President Kevin Hunter.

The LF-LC hybrid sports coupe is the result of a brief to the Calty team to design a future hybrid sports coupe concept. The brief also necessitated the team to redefine the brand's design language with ‘emotive, avant-garde beauty and advanced technology', while keeping it within the reach of premium car buyers.

The Lexus LF-LC 2+2 Hybrid Sport Coupe was unveiled at the 2012 North American International Auto Show.
