I kind of like this grille more than the TX. It looks elegant and not so much in your face. TX buyers will love their SUV regardless but this just seems more approachable

I think it’s handsome but the front end really worries me. If you take the badge off you would have no idea it’s a Lexus.

The gratifying part is that the front end of each Lexus model has its own style, which is very unique.

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 are a paid motoring media considering how many 'Sponsored' posts they run for German makes)

Nobody should care what european reviewers think of non european cars.
Especially as of late its become pretty clear how many ignorant, biased clowns there are out there.

The Lexus LBX is expensive for a Yaris, but a Peugeot 208 is also 30k. I’d get the Lex.

Apparently this is going to be announced 9th of January!

I am curious what this is going to be called... LBX F? or GR LBX?

 

[Gor134]

What's the market position of the LBX F? Is there even a market for it? The Kona N is discontinued after one generation, Nismo Juke discontinued, T-Roc R is mild and a larger segment... Idk about this one.

Yaris Cross also gets to 30k, with cardboard interior.

LBX FSP perhaps?

The LBX is so much nicer than a Yaris, took a look at one some weeks ago, really really nice.

Yaris Cross also gets to 30k, with cardboard interior.

But doesn’t get cardboard motor with timing belt soaked in oil.

nor does LBX

The former, obviously.

 

[Gecko]

The former, obviously.

I'd hope so, but I've heard some things on GR vs. F in the future

I hope it’s good thing 🥲
