Tough time, they will bounce back next year

BMW's strategy of cutting features (touch screens, satellite radio, GPS module, driving assist are only available for custom order) from cars to save chips worked for them and it shows in sales figures. Sucks for the owners though, 2022 and 2023 model year BMWs will have trash resale value. Basically all German brands benefited from still not offering full ADAS package which is ridiculous. Go to any BMW dealer and you'll be lucky to find any car on the lot that has ACC.

It's always frustrating when Lexus provides a number and then qualifies it with "new models, refreshes and special editions" because we all know most of the special editions are nothing more than paint colors.

Off the top of my head...

Redesigns/new models:
TX
GX
RZ (delayed from 2022)
Potentially ES?

Refresh:
LC
RC? (recent announcement about infotainment and suspension changes)

Special Editions:
IS 350 F Sport appearance package (unsure if this counts)
IS 500 Molten Pearl (unsure if this counts)

?

I feel like they break the RC into two models, being RC(1) and RC F(2).
The GX(3/4) and TX(5) could easily be two models each if they make one an F Sport Performance, although the TX feels like the type of vehicle that won't get a performance model.
I suspect a UX 300h(6) as well? I remember that being trademarked last year.
Cop outs would be Inspriration models for the LS(7) and LC(8).
Fuji Speedway equivalent RC F(9) is possible as well.

that sounds crazy, do they really not have ACC?

As for TMC, first step is actually being able to produce cars that they already sold. NX and Rav4 hybrids for instance have more than a year wait times in some markets, which is just insane. Average wait time for most Toyotas in Europe is at least 6 months right now, I assume it is same or worse for Lexus.
