Lexus Australia has confirmed pricing of its revolutionary LBX luxury compact car and highly anticipated GX off-roader ahead of their respective launches in coming months.
The chic LBX urban SUV arrives in showrooms on 18 March, priced at $47,550 plus on-road costs for the LBX Luxury 2WD.
Customers wanting greater levels of comfort and convenience may select the LBX Sports Luxury 2WD priced at $52,990 plus on-road costs1.
The ultimate expression of style and dynamic performance is the LBX Sports Luxury AWD, which blends superior grip and handling with premium Lexus luxury, priced at $56,990 plus on-road costs.
Lexus Australia Chief Executive John Pappas said the LBX is a game-changer.
“The LBX is the first car in its class to combine hybrid efficiency with big-car luxury, making it a small car that is truly premium in every respect,” Mr Pappas said.
“It has all the luxury, craftsmanship, high quality and signature driving experience you will find in any car wearing the Lexus badge – at a remarkably tempting price.
“The LBX will attract affluent younger customers to the brand as well as provide another option for existing Lexus customers wanting to either downsize or have a second Lexus vehicle for casual weekend fun.”
When the GX off-roader arrives from mid-2024 it will be the ninth all-new, or new-generation Lexus, to be launched in Australia in just over two-and-a-half years.
It caps off a remarkable product offensive that has revitalised the brand, with annual deliveries above 10,000 expected for the foreseeable future.
The imminent arrival of the GX expands the Lexus luxury SUV lineup to seven models, each one distinctive to meet the diverse needs of discerning Lexus customers.
Mr Pappas said Lexus is pleased with the strong interest shown in GX through the Expressions of Interest (EOI) page on the company’s website.
“We are delighted with the response to GX so far,” he said. “It has genuine appeal in the way it delivers trademark Lexus luxury and craftsmanship with rugged off-road performance suited to tough Australian conditions.
“The GX in Luxury and Sports Luxury grades also provides customers with the flexibility of a third row of seats for urban family adventures.”
The lineup opens with the GX 550 Luxury priced at $116,000 plus on-road costs1 riding on 20-inch alloy wheels. GX Sports Luxury is differentiated with its 22-inch wheels and suite of additional omotenashi comfort features, priced at $128,200 plus on-road cost1.
Slotting in between Luxury and Sports Luxury grades is GX Overtrail, designed especially for the rugged outdoors with unique off-road driving features and all-terrain tyres fitted to 18-inch wheels. It is priced at $122,250 plus on-road costs.
All GX and LBX customers can expect an unrivalled ownership experience.
In addition to Vehicle Owner Benefits of free Lexus service loan cars, vehicle collection & drop-off and capped price servicing, GX and LBX customers are gifted complimentary three-year membership to Lexus Encore.
Encore adds a thoughtful touch of personal luxury with VIP offers through Lexus partner hotels and restaurants, invitations to exclusive events, movie and Ampol fuel offers, and DriveCare 24/7 roadside assistance.
On-sale date for GX will be announced closer to its launch.
