They are just too constrained with not wanting to offend their extremely loyal but also conservative customer base that just don't want a GLS or a Range Rover and only want almost the exact same thing they had in the past 20 years. I think they are content with the current situation of the J300 platform with a healthy backlog of orders worldwide. The GX is the second best thing they could do. While it's not a true flagship product the project itself was treated like a flagship project.More than 3 times as many GLS as S-Class, and half as many S-Class year-over-year. Lexus needs to get the LX straightened out as a proper flagship, because that's where the market is at.
But they’ve accelerated the refresh by 1 year based on customer feedback. Customers are expecting more luxury and features.. more than ever. Especially after 14 years.I think they are content with the current situation of the J300 platform
Wow, Mercedes SUV offerings are really bringing them down. Lexus actually has a shot at the luxury crown this year with the TX and GX on sale. Updated UX and PHEV RX/TX being on lots should help too. I still expect the passenger car sales to be dreadful.BMW-362,244
