On Friday Lexus Vice President Schrick made the following statement: Lexus has to postpone its sales targets in Germany with planned 10,000 registrations in 2010 to 2011 and 2012 respectively. Two important sports models will be introduced in the next two years.In March, the top version of the IS entry-level series IS-F with V 8 engine and 423 hp will be released.It will be positioned as a direct opponent to the new M 3. Its Vmax is 270 km/h. In 2009 the LF-A comes with 10 cyl. engine and > 500 PS. It is the sporting tip of the future model range. These individual niche models are intended to help the Lexus program to become more accepted. Lexus is still difficult, Schrick admitted.To achieve the target, Schrick announced another wave of investments in all areas. (Source: Automobilwoche online) If you look at the new registrations for the last three months, it can be a fear and a fear. ck. At 285500 total, this corresponds to a market share of 0.001190 %. In 2010, one wanted to achieve 0.3% (10,000) at approx. 3.3 million total market. I fear that this start-up (the 3rd investor strongly supported) will not again lead to the goal. The decisive reason IMO are non-market-compliant products.
