    Lexus LBX Megathread

    It's been getting a pretty mixed, generally negative reception from the motoring press here in the UK (who actually loved the LM!) The main thing being thrown at it is that it's a £30k Yaris Cross - it's just funny how they never call an Audi A1 a VW Polo (but then some would argue that they...

    Lexus Compact Sedan EV Revealed

    I'm a complete convert to the 'emblem on hood' styling though.

    Lexus Compact Sedan EV Revealed

    Looks excellent and a production car close to this smashes the awkward IS and ES out of the water for me!

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    They have already sold something like 150+ of them in the UK. So long as they have sold that number and continue to sell around that per year then they will exist at least. I don't mind travelling for the right vehicle!

    JAPAN MOBILITY SHOW 2023

    This. It's the Honda Prius Coupe. Not really a bad thing, the new Prius is an absolute beauty! Shame the UK is literally the one market worldwide that doesn't get the new one...despite there being about a million on the roads. Carmakers and their decisions will never ever make sense to me. The...

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    Thanks for sharing! It's some vehicle, I can't wait to pick up a used one and whisk my soon to be born kids across Europe each summer in extreme comfort. I imagine their friends faces when they get in the back! Their parents may think it looks horrendous, but their kids will be begging them to...

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    He clearly learned about 10 facts from the media overview sheet then tried to fluff his way through the rest with lots of pouting and posing. I see Thomas tried to find fault in the LM with the looks and a very specific issue about the seats reclining all the way without stop sensors but other...

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    Who know why they invited this male-Supercar Blondie to the press event but the LM looks stunning in his video! He reveal the figure that I've seen on other sources too - they've managed to sell 150 plus of these in the UK already! Not back for a £90k starting minivan that gets ridiculed for...

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    I don't believe Lexus will release a £119k luxury people carrier and it sound like a rattly minivan. They know what they are doing. Maybe if it's being thrashed but who is going to thrash this thing? Yes the V-Class is a bit larger but I wouldn't say it was 2 class sizes above an LM. Are we...

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    Considering what Mercedes Sprinters and V-Class goes for customised to anywhere near as good as the LM inside - the LM should be a smash hit with those that need a luxury people mover. Private sales will be appalling but there will be a market for them - there are a ton of custom V-Class and...

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    It's a hybrid, so long as it feels right with the electric side kicking in for torque no one will care - if it feels underpowered and screams on the motorway then maybe.

    Lexus LBX Megathread

    Looks great in the thumbnail - like I say - Lexus will sell A LOT of these in Europe!

    Lexus LBX Megathread

    They will sell a billion of these in Europe, especially Scotland! It's the sad state of the market, but this is going to be excellent for Lexus Europe.

    It's that badge move to the bonnet - it just looks so much better! Can't wait for more details to emerge.

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    @Kelvin2020 Saw these on Facebook earlier today - the black looks excellent in the real-world. Here's a rolling show too - what a family car this will be!

    I’m sure I read in the press release that they do.

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    See earlier in thread - both Japanese YouTubers sat in the back and explored extensively as well as the front. I don't know why they were being so crappy with Mat Watson. The colour grading of this video makes it looks much more silver in colour rather than the 'sonic titanium' type colour I...

    The Lexus LM Minivan Megathread

    It looks like there will be a 6 and 7 seater variant of the LM. The UK press release only shows a black leather interior for the 7 seat variant of the LM with a central rear headrest and middle seat padding. The global press release shows the rear bench in cream leather with extra storage trays...
