Talking New Lexus LBX

Hey everyone,
I recently visited the dealership to have some work carried out on my LC.
I noticed that they had a few LBX models in stock.
I thought that I would share with you all.

‘I think it eventually will. But with the Corolla GR 3 cylinder and mechanical awd. With a TLS diff

I don't think so, Lexus has said they're not interested in selling anything smaller or cheaper than the UX here

It would be more money than the UX. No hybrid all gas, but it would have mechanical diffs at the front, centre and rear. It would be a huge hit

I always have the impression this is bigger than the UX or at a minimum the same size. I understand burger loving Americans need the extra space, but Europeans have legs too and would need the space as well. Anything smaller than the UX is simply not livable for anyone taller than 5ft. For the record, I havent researched the dimensions on both vehicles.

Here are some interior shots in different colors: Obviously not much room in the rear seat.

wow those rear seats will not fly in the states, unless you're a sports car.

Remember the 2Gen Lexus SC430?...the rear seats were essentially a package-shelf LOL.

No illusion.....that's the way it was designed. It was essentially a two-seater.
