Lexus has sold over 5 million luxury SUVs and crossovers to date

After 31 years in the luxury vehicle business, Lexus is proud to have achieved a new milestone. As of the summer of 2020, the company has since sold 5 million SUVs and crossovers globally. The first SUV that Lexus first introduced was the Lexus LX back in 1996, but it wasn’t before the RX launched in 1998 that the company’s luxury SUV took off and quickly became a household name. In many ways, Lexus is the first luxury brand to start offering consumers with luxury SUVs. Now, SUV sales make up ab

Review: 2020 Lexus UX 200 2.0L CVT, compact SUV with BMW handling, Lexus refinement

(2020 Lexus UX Price & Specs | Gallery) When the all-new Lexus UX 200 broke covers at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, I was extremely confused with the idea of a small Lexus SUV when the Japanese premium carmaker already has the highly accomplished Lexus NX. The insatiable appetite for Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) around the world has prompt carmakers to create countless variations of SUVs – convertible SUVs are, by far, the wildest creation ever. Last year in Malaysia, the SUV market grew by 64.8%

30 years of Lexus: How it began and what is the meaning of the Lexus name?

First introduced in 1989 with the first generation Lexus LS 400, this year marks the 30th anniversary of the luxury car brand that set new standards for quality and customer service. Lexus’ story began in August 1983 at Toyota’s headquarters in Aichi, when the then Chairman of Toyota Motor Eiji Toyoda convened for top-secret meeting and posted the question, “Can we create a luxury car to challenge the very best?” The abbreviated version of Lexus’ history often credits Eiji, who is the granduncle

RM 249k 2021 Toyota Harrier vs RM 236k Lexus UX: Why Toyota when you can Lexus?

Perhaps the biggest news surrounding the launch of the 2021 Toyota Harrier is the demise of the 8AR-FTS turbocharged power unit. One way or another, some will moan about this, but there are solid reasons why Toyota did this. At RM 249k, the Toyota Harrier asks quite a sizeable chunk of your hard-earned money. Interestingly, the Lexus UX occupies a similar price range to the Harrier (RM 236k - 290k). Will this cause some sort of cannibalisation within the brands? Let's delve further and have a lo

Lexus trademarks new name, next car to be RZ450e?

We heard through the grapevine that Lexus has registered the name RZ450e in the USA, Europe, and Australia. This suggested that Lexus has both a new model coming soon and a possible new powertrain. Now that we have a name, we can start speculating on what it can tell us. The Z is a hint that this will be a whole new model of its own. We glanced through Lexus’ history book and noted that the brand has never used the letter Z on any models that have come before. We can’t help but wonder if this co

RM 249k 2021 Toyota Harrier vs RM 236k Lexus UX:能买Lexus,为什么要买Toyota?

随着2021 Toyota Harrier的推出,最大的新闻或许就是8AR-FTS涡轮增压引擎的缺席了。无论如何,总会有一些人抱怨,但Toyota这样做十分合理的理由的。 Toyota Harrier要价RM 249k,不可谓昂贵。但有趣的是,Harrier与Lexus UX的价格十分相近(RM 236k - 290k)。这是否会造成品牌内部的重叠竞争?让我们深入了解,一探究竟。 价格对比(减免SST的落地价格,不包含保险费用) 车型 & 版本 价格(RM) Toyota Harrier 2.0 Luxury 249,706 Lexus UX200 Urban 236,443 Lexus UX200 Luxury 274,998 Lexus UX200 F Sport 290,335 尺寸对比 数据对比之下,Harrier的尺寸其实更大,因为它采用了TNGA-K平台上。反之,UX使用的则是更小的TNGA-C平台(Lexus只称其为GA-C)。 在进入车内后,这一差别十分明显。Harrier的空间更宽裕、更通透,而UX的车内空间仍然是一个明显的弱点。 尺寸对比 Toyota Harrie

What’s the most reliable car brand? What brand should your next car be? Depending on who you ask, you will get different answers, depending on how they choose to make their assessment. If you were to ask the Americans at Consumer Reports, the best brands to buy are Porsche, Genesis, Subaru, Mazda, and Lexus, in that order. Something is clearly not right when a brand like Porsche tops the list of a consumer-friendly buying guide so take this with a pinch of salt. But Consumer Reports is not wrong
