The 2021 Lexus LM 350, a fully-imported (CBU Japan), four-seater MPV (yes it seats only four) is now officially open for booking in Malaysia, with prices starting from RM 1.15 million.
With this price tag, the LM 350 is circa RM 135k dearer than the beautiful 2020 Lexus LS 500 Luxury, which is priced from RM 1.013 million.

Lexus Malaysia is expected to launch the LM 350 in May 2021, with deliveries starting in June 2021.
For what is essentially a Toyota Alphard at heart, the LM 350 is quite the looker. Tri-beam LED projector head lamps flank the Lexus signature spindle grille.
Round the back there are redesigned tail lamps too which looks really exclusive.

Capping off the looks are 18-inch wheels wrapped in 235/50 profile tyres and tons of chrome accents everywhere.
The LM 350 is powered by a 3.5-litre 2GR-FKS naturally-aspirated V6 engine making 300 PS and 361 Nm. Power is sent to the front wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Lexus terms the interior as 'mobile first class lounge' and well, it shows. There's space for four occupants only (captain seats for the 2nd-row), with AdaptiPedic comfort foams wrapped in semi-Aniline leather.
These fully-reclinable seats are also equipped with Ottoman massage functions, allowing passengers to enjoy air-cooled or heated seats through the touch countrols on the rear central console.
But that's not all - there's a 26-inch full-HD display panel mounted just in front of the rear seats, allowing one to partake in business discussions, or even just watch a movie - which'll be quite the experience considering it's equipped with a 19-speaker Mark Levinson surround sound system.
There's also a fold-out magazine rack below it, along with a mini fridge for your cold drinks.
Besides 7 airbags, there's a slew of ADAS features including forward collision warning (FCW), dynamic radar cruise control (DRCC), lane-departure assist (LDA), blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert (BSM, RCTA) and auto high beam (AHB).
With humble beginnings collecting diecast models and spending hours virtually tuning dream cars on the computer, his love of cars has delightfully transformed into a career. Sanjay enjoys how the same passion for cars transcends boundaries and brings people together.
