Shanghai 2019: Lexus Drops Another LM Teaser

Ahead of next week’s 2019 Auto Shanghai, Lexus has dropped another teaser of the upcoming LM, the company's first-ever luxury MPV.

This time around, Lexus has teased the side profile of the new LM, which clearly indicates that the new luxury MPV will be built upon the current generation Toyota Alphard as evident by the side profile character line.

Staying true to its more luxurious roots, the upcoming Lexus LM also appears to don more chrome than the Alphard it’s based on, stretching from the bottom of the A-pillar all the way to the rear spoiler.

Lexus has already trademarked the LM 350 and LM 300h names in Malaysia, possibly hinting at the powertrain options that we could expect – a 3.5-litre naturally-aspirated V6 for the LM 350 or a 2.5-litre petrol-electric hybrid for the LM 300h.

Putting into consideration that the Toyota Alphard carries a price tag that starts from RM 443,000, it remains to be seen how much the new Lexus LM will be priced at.
