We missed the facelifted 2014 Lexus CT 200h when it was unveiled in November during the LA Auto Show, but Lexus has brought one here to Detroit for us to check out and shoot. In keeping with the latest Lexus hourglass/spindle design, the 2014 CT 200h gets the updated front fascia with the newer grill along with updated headlights and an updated rear bumper. Lexus says they are using a different paint process on certain panels to better resist rock chips. Moving inside, Lexus has given the CT 200h a new steering wheel and revised shifter. The optional navigation screen is now fixed and thinner than the previous one.

The CT 200h F Sport sports a contrasting black roof for the 2014 model as well as a unique rear spoiler. Even with the new standard features pricing remains the same when it goes on sale next month.
