The Lexus LF-R could have a twin-turbocharged V8 pumping out upwards of 700 hp
GR GT3 Concept Likely To Be Branded As A Lexus, Compete In WEC As Of 2026Current reports suggest that Lexus will equip both the race car and the road car with a new twin-turbocharged V8. This wouldn’t just enable it to produce significantly more power but could also make it more fuel efficient, a win-win for an automaker looking to reduce its carbon footprint.
The throaty roar of this prototype immediately stands out and it does sound like a turbocharged mill, rather than a naturally aspirated V8. Of course, the LF-R will be made special by much more than its engine. Thanks to its racing routes, it will come adorned with aerodynamic bodywork and can be seen sporting a massive rear wing to stick the rear wheels to the pavement, or the racetrack. We can also see that it will feature a very long hood and that occupants will sit just in front of the rear axle.
