=== UK === The Lexus CT200h was sold in the UK market from 2011 until, in October 2020, it was announced imports of the CT line had ceased along with the [[Lexus IS|IS]] line and [[Lexus RC|RC]] line (except for the RC F), due to poor sales figures, fierce competition from European rivals, and a shift in the market towards [[Crossover suv|crossover SUVs]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/353384/lexus-ct-hatchback-saloon-and-rc-coupe-all-be-axed-uk |title=Lexus CT hatchback, IS saloon and RC coupe all to be axed in the UK |publisher=Autoexpress |date=2020-10-08 |access-date=2021-04-01 |archive-date=13 April 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210413142048/https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/353384/lexus-ct-hatchback-saloon-and-rc-coupe-all-be-axed-uk |url-status=live }}</ref> The UX acts as a successor to the CT.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Hydzik |first=James |date=2025-02-11 |title=Why Did Lexus Discontinue The CT Hybrid And What Took Its Place? |url=https://www.slashgear.com/1780843/lexus-discontinued-ct-hybrid-reasons/ |access-date=2025-05-27 |website=SlashGear |language=en-US}}</ref>

== Reception == The [[Union of Concerned Scientists]] (UCS) in its 2011 [[Hybrid Scorecard]] ranked the Lexus CT 200h, together with the [[Lincoln MKZ Hybrid]], as the top luxury hybrid models in the scorecard's environmental improvement category, an achievement the UCS attributed to their relatively small petrol engines, as both carmakers downsized these vehicles' engines from six to four cylinders to maximize fuel economy.<ref name=NYTUCS11>{{cite news |url=http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/07/07/scientists-demand-improved-hybrid-performance-from-automakers/?emc=eta1 |title=Scientists Demand Improved Hybrid Performance From Automakers |author=Cheryl Jensen |work=[[The New York Times]] |date=2011-07-07 |access-date=2011-07-23 |archive-date=31 July 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120731051520/http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/07/07/scientists-demand-improved-hybrid-performance-from-automakers/?emc=eta1 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name=UCS2011PR>{{cite web|url=http://www.ucsusa.org/news/press_release/hybrid-scorecard-2011-6214.html |title=Hybrid Scorecard for 2011 Shows Automakers Not Delivering Enough 'High Value' Models |publisher=[[Union of Concerned Scientists]] |date=2011-07-06 |access-date=2011-07-24 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110721020806/http://www.ucsusa.org/news/press_release/hybrid-scorecard-2011-6214.html |archive-date=2011-07-21}}</ref> The UCS evaluation found that the Lexus CT 200h reduces [[greenhouse emissions]] by 42.9% as compared to the [[Lexus IS 250]], used as its petrol-only similar for this comparison.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hybridcenter.org/hybrid-scorecard/hybrid-scorecard-methodology.html |title=UCS Hybrid Scorecard Methodology |author=Union of Concerned Scientists |publisher=HybridCenter.org |access-date=2011-07-24 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110810225519/http://www.hybridcenter.org/hybrid-scorecard/hybrid-scorecard-methodology.html |archive-date=2011-08-10|author-link=Union of Concerned Scientists }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.hybridcenter.org/hybrid-scorecard/models/lexus-ct-200h.html |title=Hybrid Scorecard: Lexus CT 200h |author=Union of Concerned Scientists |publisher=HybridCenter.org |access-date=2011-07-24|author-link=Union of Concerned Scientists }}</ref>
