Lexus RX [2017-2023]

Unconventional looks

<p>The RX seems to be the misfit in the entire Lexus range, mostly due to its unconventional looks. It can’t strike a good balance between SUV and Crossover body styles.</p>


Flat tyre

<p>I recently purchased an RX. It performs very well, and has a smooth petrol engine. But when I was in a traffic jam, a rider on a two wheeler had pointed out that my tyre is flat.&nbsp;</p>


Stylish looks

<p>I feel it is the most stylish SUV in the market, but horrifyingly costly. Lexus should consider local assembly for all its vehicles. I am waiting for 3-series rival from Lexus.</p>

<p><strong>-The Lexus LFA Concept features a high-performance electric powertrain.<br>-It combines lightweight, rigid construction with technology from Toyota’s GR GT and GR GT3 race cars.<br>-The BEV sports modern styling that honours the original LFA.</strong></p><p>The new Lexus LFA is fully electric and has made its much-awaited debut in concept form, alongside Toyota’s new GR GT supercar and the race-ready GR GT3 in Japan. While details remain limited, the luxury division of Toyota has confirmed that the concept uses engineering know-how from GR GT and GR GT3 race cars while exploring what is possible with an electric powertrain. It has a lightweight aluminium body and is built around three core principles&nbsp;(a low centre of gravity, lightweight yet highly rigid construction, and advanced aerodynamics). Since the original two-door LFA sports car ended production in 2012,&nbsp;fans have eagerly speculated about what a second-generation model might offer – whether it would feature a more powerful V10 or a completely new approach.&nbsp;The new LFA Concept answers that curiosity with a fully electric powertrain, highlighting its ability to explore electrification while highlighting&nbsp;the performance potential of electric sports cars. All of this comes wrapped in a timeless, next-generation design that stays true to the spirit of the original LFA.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/lexus-rx-350h-exquisite-trim-launched-in-india-prices-start-at-rs-90-lakh-122338/">Lexus RX 350h Exquisite Trim Launched in India, Prices Start at Rs 90 Lakh</a></p><p>Speaking on its electric exploration of the supercar, Lexus said, 'The model name 'LFA' is not bound to vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. It symbolises a vehicle that embodies technologies its engineers should preserve and pass on to the next generation.&nbsp;From the past to the future: the Lexus LFA Concept is a testament to how Lexus is preserving and passing on the value&nbsp;of sports cars and car-making knowledge so they can be retained and evolved.'</p><p>

Compared to the old LFA, it’s roughly 254mm longer and over 152 mm wider, giving it a much more commanding presence.</p><p>Design-wise,&nbsp;the new LFA Concept channels the spirit of the original LFA.&nbsp;Its low, coupe-like stance and flowing lines give it a timeless profile,&nbsp;while large wheels and functional vents behind the front tyres&nbsp;hint at performance. Even as a full BEV, it exudes the dynamic&nbsp;presence of a front-engine, rear-drive supercar.</p><p>Key highlights include a long hood with a glowing logo, slim LED headlights,  a continuous taillight, F1-inspired lighting, and a bold rear diffuser.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/12/Lexus-LFA-Concept-Interior-1764910667645.webp" alt="Lexus LFA Concept Interior.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The new LFA boasts a driver-centric cockpit, with a large display (showing all key information), and a yoke-style wheel for smooth operation.

1,446 Lexus Cars Recalled In India Over Faulty Parking Assist Cameras

<p>Lexus has presented the LS Concept at the Japan Mobility Show 2025, showcasing the future direction of its flagship LS series. The concept replaces the sedan form with a six-wheeled luxury van. This version focuses on passenger comfort and usable space rather than driver engagement. Lexus describes the concept as a step toward the next stage of mobility, combining electric power and autonomous systems. The six-wheel layout is the LS Concept’s most distinctive element. It uses four smaller wheels at the rear to create a flat cabin floor that supports three seating rows and seats up to seven people. This layout gives more flexibility for interior design, allowing the vehicle to be configured for business or chauffeur use.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/century-toyotas-new-ultra-luxury-brand-above-lexus-explained-122005/">Century: Toyota’s New Ultra-Luxury Brand Above Lexus, Explained</a></p><p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/lexus/">Lexus </a>has applied this design to demonstrate how large vans can balance space, comfort, and stability in future premium vehicles.</p><h2><strong>Lexus LS Concept: Exterior</strong></h2><p>The exterior design takes cues from Lexus’s ongoing style changes. The front replaces the brand’s spindle grille with L-shaped light elements. The sides rise sharply around the rear wheels and use transparent panels to balance outside visibility and privacy.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/10/Lexus-LS-Concept-Rear-1761811515014.webp" alt="Lexus LS Concept Rear.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>At the rear, a U-shaped light bar connects both ends, and the tailgate opens vertically in two sections. These elements form a clean structure that keeps the design linked to Lexus’s modern identity.</p><h2><strong>Lexus LS Concept: Interior</strong></h2><p>The LS Concept focuses on how passengers use the space during travel. Wide sliding doors make entry easier, and the interior can be rearranged for work or relaxation. Adjustable seats, lighting control, and sound insulation create a calm setting.</p><p>

The company recognises that customer interest is moving away from sedans toward SUVs and vans that offer more space and flexibility. With this concept, Lexus signals a shift from performance-centred sedans to larger vehicles built around comfort, technology, and efficient electric mobility.</p>

Six-wheeled Lexus LS Concept Luxury Van Debuts at Japan Mobility Show 2025

The Lexus LS Concept at the Japan Mobility Show redefines the flagship model as a six-wheel luxury van focused on passenger comfort and electric mobility.

<p>Toyota has announced the creation of a new ultra-luxury brand positioned above its existing Lexus lineup, signalling a shift in its global strategy. The move, revealed ahead of the Japan Mobility Show in late October, will focus on the Century nameplate, Toyota’s flagship model. Introduced in 1967, the Century has long symbolised Japanese craftsmanship and tradition, often used by senior government officials and the Imperial Household. By establishing Century as a standalone marque, Toyota plans to take what was once a domestic symbol of status and transform it into a global name competing with established luxury manufacturers such as <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/rolls-royce/">Rolls-Royce</a> and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/bentley/">Bentley</a>. The approach aims to strengthen Toyota’s position in the top-tier luxury market while redefining its brand structure.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/maruti-suzuki-jimny-5-door-hits-1-lakh-unit-exports-milestone-122003/">Maruti Suzuki Jimny 5-Door Hits 1 Lakh Unit Exports Milestone</a></p><p>The Century has always represented a reserved form of luxury, built with attention to detail rather than visual showmanship. Produced in limited volumes, it has maintained exclusivity within Japan for decades. <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/toyota/">Toyota</a> now intends to retain that reputation while expanding the Century’s profile for international markets. The goal is to establish a global identity distinct from both Lexus and Toyota’s mainstream models, presenting Century as a new expression of traditional craftsmanship aligned with modern market expectations.</p><p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/lexus/">Lexus</a> will continue focusing on technology and performance, while Century will stand as the top offering within Toyota’s portfolio. This approach allows both brands to operate independently while targeting different customer bases, with Lexus pursuing innovation and Century focusing on custom-built exclusivity.</p><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/10/Century-SUV-2-1760422285494.webp" alt="Century SUV 2.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>A concept model previewing the Century brand has already been shown, featuring a coupe-like limousine design with sliding doors and a refined interior. The vehicle highlights materials and details chosen for craftsmanship rather than display. Toyota plans to introduce hybrid powertrains for upcoming models, integrating its environmental goals with modern luxury standards. </p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/toyota-century-suv-lexus-ls-mpv-concepts-teased-ahead-of-2025-japan-mobility-show-121942/">Toyota Century SUV, Lexus LS MPV Concepts Teased Ahead of 2025 Japan Mobility Show</a></p><p>Toyota’s decision to enter the ultra-luxury segment reflects a wider industry trend where long-established manufacturers aim to expand upward into higher price segments. By making Century an independent brand, Toyota seeks to compete directly with global luxury names while maintaining a unique cultural identity. With expansion plans that include regions like China, Toyota aims to position Century as an international luxury marque rooted in Japanese heritage and consistent quality.</p>

Century: Toyota’s New Ultra-Luxury Brand Above Lexus, Explained

Toyota’s Century becomes a standalone ultra-luxury brand above Lexus, set to compete globally with Rolls-Royce and Bentley, featuring hybrid powertrains.

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/lexus/">Lexus</a> is all set for the Japan Mobility Show and has teased two new concepts: a two-door coupe under the Century badge and an MPV. Though Lexus hasn’t revealed full details, what we can gather from&nbsp;the teaser images is that the Century concept heads in a more crossover-like direction. </p><p>The stance&nbsp;is taller, and the front looks boxy, echoing SUV styling. The squared-off proportions offer a strong,&nbsp;upright look, while the use of sliding doors on the passenger side and&nbsp;no visible B-pillar make the side look sleek and seamless.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>Overall, the Century concept has a futuristic presence. It ditches the rear glass, similar to what we've seen from Polestar, and features dual-layer&nbsp;headlights and taillights. The hood vents and partially open grille, finished with a gold phoenix emblem, suggest there could be a combustion engine beneath.&nbsp;That said, <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/toyota/">Toyota</a> hasn’t confirmed any powertrain details as of now.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/lexus-lx-sees-rs-2080-lakh-cut-after-gst-check-reductions-across-line-up-inside-121722/">Lexus LX Sees Rs 20.80 Lakh Cut After GST; Check Reductions Across Line-up Inside</a></p><p>The concept stands tall and has a commanding presence despite its slim profile. It features a sharply sloped roofline. For an uncluttered look, the carmaker has refrained from placing too many badges on the concept.</p><p>

      </div>
    <p><br></p><h2><strong>Lexus LS MPV Concept</strong></h2><p>Another concept Lexus has revealed for the 2025 Japan Mobility Show is an MPV that could be a bold and innovative take on the LS nameplate.&nbsp;The MPV, with its six-wheel layout, including larger wheels at the front&nbsp;and a set of smaller ones at the back, looks elegant and stylish. It features&nbsp;sliding doors, sharply angled A-pillar, and illuminated wheel centers.</p><p>

      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>Currently, the details on performance are scarce, but the concept seems to&nbsp;offer luxury and chauffeur-driven comfort.</p><p>The two-door Century coupe concept and the six-wheel LS MPV will debut at the highly anticipated Japan Mobility Show, scheduled&nbsp;for October 30 to November 9, 2025, at Tokyo Big Sight. These&nbsp;concepts will highlight Lexus’s commitment to&nbsp;revolutionising premium mobility.</p>

It’s the ultimate midsize luxury SUV showdown! This time, Shivank brings together all five contenders in this segment — the Volvo XC60, Audi Q5, Mercedes-Benz GLC, BMW X3, and Lexus NX 350h — for a definitive comparison test.

<p>Lexus India has announced price cuts across the range following the latest update to the country’s GST system.&nbsp;Although exact prices are still under wraps, the company has revealed model-wise reductions, and the Lexus LX 500d has seen&nbsp;the biggest price drop of up to Rs 20.80 lakh.
