Interesting. Perhaps it is a preview of the smaller-than-RX Lexus SUV that has been in the rumor-mill.
Is it RWD? AWD? Is it bigger or smaller than the Rav4? Or will it be a sport cross? Is it similar to the Nissan Rogue? VW Tiguan? Will it go against the BMW X3?

This isn't going to be a Lexus. JX/unibody crossover will be a 7 seater, not a 5 seater.
Also the article says it was designed in America and will be build here too, so maybe it wont be the Mark x Zio.
