Lexus has announced the arrival of the mildly updated CT 200h hybrid hatch in the UK. Available to order now with customer deliveries from March, the revamp comes with notable price reductions ranging from £1,000 to £1,500 on all models sans the Advance trim that keeps the same price, but gains new standard features including parking sensors, heated front seats and the new, fully integrated Lexus Navigation.
The 2014 CT 200h starts from £20,995, £1,000 less than before.
Visually, the regular CT 200h models sport a tweaked front grille, bumper and LED daytime running lights, along with newly designed wheels, LED rear license plate illumination, a larger rear spoiler, a shark fin antenna and scratch-resistant clear coat. The F Sport edition adopts the same mesh pattern as the new IS F Sport saloon and a new rear spoiler with integrated air ducts.
Inside, all models come with redesigned shift lever, sliding sun visors and steering wheel, plus new trim accents and available colors.
The current range of six model grades named S, SE, Advance, Luxury, F Sport and Premier is retained, with the latter gaining new aluminium scuff plates and LED front fog lamps.
There are no changes to the CT 200h’s hybrid powertrain with official combined cycle consumption figures standing at 78.5mpg UK for the S grade, and 68.9mpg UK for the other models in the range
