The all-new 2023 Lexus LM was recently launched in Thailand following the launch of the AH40 generation Toyota Alphard and Vellfire luxury minivans in the Kingdom. Fully imported from Japan, the all-new Thai-spec LM is available in two variants: LM 350h Executive 7-seater – THB 6.29 million (~RM 833k) LM 350h Executive 4-seater – THB 7.59 million (~RM 1 million) Essentially a pricier AH40 Alphard/Vellfire with a 4-seater layout, the second-generation Luxury Mover sits on the TNGA-K platform and

Less than one month after the 2021 Lexus LM 350 was launched in Malaysia, Lexus Malaysia has confirmed with WapCar.my that it has collected nearly 20 orders for the luxury minivan, more than half of it has already been delivered to its elite customers. As you would’ve expected, the Lexus LM 350’s asking price of RM 1,106,513 is hardly a deterrent. Nor is the fact that the Lexus LM costs twice as much as the more plebian Toyota Alphard 3.5L (RM 446,609) but has only half of the latter’s seating c

Despite being an all-new model, the latest C8 generation Audi A6 hasn’t been as well received by customers as Audi had hoped. The all-new Audi A6 made its global debut at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. In that same year, the Lexus ES, also a new generation model and now riding on Toyota’s TNGA-K platform, also made its debut at the 2018 Beijing Auto Show. 2019 was the first full-year sales for both models. According to the latest data compiled by Felipe Munoz (Twitter handle @lovecarindustry) of Ja

USA is Lexus’ biggest market, contributing nearly 40 percent of its total sales worldwide, followed by China at 25 percent. Since the Lexus ES was launched last year, the model has been very successful in the all-important US market, outselling the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. According to data compiled by Jato Dynamics, the Lexus ES sold 51,336 units in USA last year. This compares against the BMW 5 Series’ 38,707 units, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class’ 25,180 units and Audi A6’s 17,799 un

If your regular Toyota Alphard and Vellfire aren’t posh enough for your liking, you might want to pay attention to the 2020 Lexus LM 300h. The luxury people-carrier comes in two variants, a 4-seater and a 7-seater variant. The 4-seater costs a cool 6.5 million baht (RM 874,556 in the current exchange rate) while 7 seater is 1 million baht lesser (RM 740,107). Mind you, a Mercedes-Benz S350d Exclusive is priced at 6.39 million baht (RM 859,790), thus making LM 300h as one of the priciest car in T

Remember the BMW Concept 4? Some were surprised, put off, or even amused by it, thinking that it's just a concept. But we'll get back to it in a moment. Peter Henrich, who is the Head of Product Management at BMW, told Autocar that the feedback from customers about the change in styling on recent models like the 7 Series and X7 has been positive. It would seem that the bold move to introduce a huge grille on the 7 Series and X7 has paid off then, and BMW doesn't plan to stop there. In 2018, BMW
