AIMS preview: Lexus LF-Xh hybrid SUV Concept

September 11th 2008 04:45

Japanese luxury car maker Lexus will headline its 2008 Australian International Motor Show line-up with the LF-Xh performance hybrid SUV concept. The LF-Xh made its debut at the Tokyo Motor Show last year and features a V6 petrol engine mated to a high-output electric motor hybrid system for sporty performance while staying environmentally friendly.

Designed by Lexus' Shuhei Miyashita, the concept aims to capture the essence of Lexus' unique L-Finesse design philosophy for an SUV with an aggressive stance and edgy design featuring large LED headlamps, handleless doors and distinct blue hybrid badging.

Interior design has also been heavily influenced by Lexus' L-Finesse design language, featuring a large flowing centre console and wrap-around dashboard housing hybrid-inspired blue instruments.

Lexus Chief Executive John Roca said the Lexus stand at the 2008 Australian International Motor Show would be its biggest ever in Australia.

"In particular, the LF-Xh concept demonstrates our ongoing commitment to hybrid technology as a core Lexus power-train."

"Lexus hybrid drive is a core strength for us. We have already incorporated it into several production models, and our intention is to continue to grow our hybrid vehicle line-up," said Mr Roca.

"While others continue to talk about their moves to new power-train technologies, Lexus has been making it available to consumers in Australia since 2006," said Roca.

The hybrid concept will be one of two all-new Lexus vehicles to be displayed at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney starting from October 9.

Lexus Australia has unveiled a special edition of its luxury RX 350 SUV this month featuring additional extras worth more than $8,500 including free on-road costs.

Dubbed the 'Winter Warmer', the special edition RX 350 features exclusive 18-inch shadow chrome alloy wheels, three unique exterior colours - Arctic Blue, Burgundy and Onyx carbon - and an accessories pack featuring roof racks, nudge bar, tow bar, headlight covers, rear bumper protector, cargo mat and reverse parking sensors.

Interior-wise, the special edition RX 350 features the full leather treatment (seat and door trim), leather and wood steering wheel, heated power-adjustable driver and front passenger’s seats, dual-zone climate control, cruise control and a raft of safety features including seven airbags, anti-lock brakes and vehicle stability control.

Lexus Australia chief executive John Roca said: “RX 350 SE is a very attractive package for active couples or families, and with the onset of winter RX 350 SE couldn’t arrive at a better time,

“On the financial front, RX 350 SE will offer purchasers additional value in the order of $8500, a significant saving as we head towards the end of the financial year.

“The RX has long been one of Australia’s most popular luxury SUVs - and we expect RX 350 SE with its added extras to be one of our best sellers over the coming months.”

The special edition RX 350 will be offered in a strictly limited supply of 250 examples, with each vehicle featuring unique SE badging and numbered build plates.
