The new LS is expected to debut in January at the Detroit Auto Show. The sedan's exterior will be styled after the LF-FC concept car (pictured). Initially, the model will be available in only two versions – with a five-liter V8 gasoline engine and with a hybrid powertrain.

The luxury sedan will receive a hydrogen-powered modification no earlier than 2019. The Japanese plan to use technologies that are already actively used on the Toyota Mirai model.
