Toyota Motorsport GmbH Teases Lexus LS TS-650 Ahead of Essen Motor Show Debut



Remember the muscular Lexus LS prototypeprepared by Toyota Motorsport GmbH (TMG) that our spies nabbed racing around the Nürburgring track last year?

Well, Toyota's motorsport division has finally made the decision to reveal the car in front of the public for the very first time at this month's2012 Essen Motor Show in Germany, which runs from November 30 to December 9.

TMG made the announcement on its Facebook page and released a handful of teaser images, though, it stopped short from providing any information about the car and what it plans to do with it in the future.

Nevertheless, our spies had not only secured clear images and even a video of the Lexus LS TMG Edition on the track (watch the clip here), but also the preliminary spec sheet, which revealed at the time that the car is powered by a 5.0-liter engine capable of reaching 9,000 rpm and delivering 650-horses and a peak torque of 710Nm (524 lb-ft).

We'll keep you updated with any new information as soon as we hear and confirm it.
