Lexus reveals new LM MPV
Upmarket people carrier will come to the UK for the first time
Lexus has revealed a new generation of its LM MPV at Auto Shanghai, while also confirming the model will be introduced to Europe for the first time.
The LM, first revealed in 2019, was Lexus’s upmarket take on the Toyota Alphard, though this second-generation model helps to preview the upcoming Toyota model by arriving first. Previously targeted at Asian markets, Lexus has now confirmed a European introduction.
Arriving as a direct rival for the Mercedes V-Class, Lexus describes it as a ‘luxury mover’, and it can be specified with either four or seven seats. With the LM being designed for the chauffeur market, the priority has been on passenger comfort, with the firm wanting it to be as ‘comfortable as a living room’.
