Arrowhead Clearance Lamps Create a Fierce Image


Born in 2010, the CT, which has undergone facelifts and minor changes, has been refined and now appears with a new design.



The spindle grille, a symbol of Lexus, features a newly sculpted mesh, and arrowhead-shaped clearance lamps, a recent Lexus design cue, are adopted above the headlamps, enhancing its fierce image.
