Now that Toyota has released an all-new Prius, what does Toyota have planned for its cousin, the Lexus CT hybrid? Well fans of the Lexus CT will probably be disappointed to hear that there are rumors that the CT hatchback will be replaced by a new smaller crossover.
According to Autocar, Lexus may replace the slow selling CT hybrid with a similarly sized crossover that will borrow styling cues from the LF-SA concept that debuted last year. The production version may take some styling cues from the LF-SA, but it will be longer and taller.

If the rumor is true, don’t expect to see the new Lexus crossover until at least the 2018 model year, since the CT is expected to stick around for another year.
