The Lexus HS 250h has been discontinued after poor sales, but could the Japanese luxury automaker be working on a CT 200h sedan variant to replace it?

Automakers such as Audi are turning towards sedan models to boost sales, evident in the addition of the A3 sedan that’s heading to America. The German automaker expects the A3 sedan to boost its sales significantly, and perhaps Lexus is exploring the same with a CT 200h sedan.
