Lexus will start out producing the subsequent chapter in its 32-calendar year record when it unveils a mysterious concept car in spring 2021. It hasn’t discovered the style study’s title nevertheless, but it defined the model will exhibit what’s coming.
Koji Sato, the company’s president and main branding officer, observed that the concept “illustrates our intentions for the long term, and marks the starting of the subsequent era of Lexus.” He stopped quick of furnishing additional specifics, but the company’s plans for the long term are pretty effortless to decipher. Lexus isn’t likely to start out producing rifles, garden mowers, or garage flooring it is really quite most likely likely to electrify its array whilst reinventing its style language for the 2020s and adding additional technological know-how — together with sophisticated semi-automated methods — to its cars.
The darkish preview impression produced by Lexus exhibits the concept car’s rear close. We see a rather very low roof accented by a fin, a sculpted rear bumper that’s much wider than the greenhouse, and the company’s title prepared in a new font. While the photo asks additional issues than it responses, we know that we’re not on the lookout at the electric powered crossover that the Toyota-owned corporation hinted at in December 2020 because the proportions don’t match. And, we remarkably question it is really the rugged, system-on-body off-roader that’s allegedly also in the functions.
We’ll have to be individual to uncover out irrespective of whether Lexus is preparing to move absent from the spindle-formed grille that has characterised its cars for nearly a decade. Geneva’s yearly auto exhibit was canceled for the second calendar year in a row, but it should have opened its doorways to the public and the push in early March 2021. Odds are the Lexus concept’s on the net unveiling will coincide with (or at least drop quite near to) the axed show’s dates.
Sato confirmed that Lexus will launch a new car in 2021, even though he did not specify if it is really related to the concept, or if it is really simply motivated by it. He pledged to continue rolling out new additions to the array through 2022.
