When Lexus decides to develop a spacious executive vehicle, you are assured that they will envelop you in total luxury and style ensuring that your every journey is filled with an aura of prestige.
Enter the Lexus LM350, an exquisitely-crafted MPV with the Lexus expression of Omotenashi hospitality. This mobile first-class lounge articulates the sense of a Luxury Mover where passengers arrive in better shape than when they left.
From the outset, the Lexus LM350 cuts a dynamic outlook that expresses elegance and confidence in motion. The large spindle grille contrasts the ultra-compact 3-beam LED projector headlights while the high waistline impresses a vehicle of strength and spaciousness. Elegant 18-inch noise-reducing alloy rims finished in hyper chrome metallic blend perfectly with the chrome accents sprinkled sparingly around the vehicles.
A powerful 3.5-litre quad cam V6 pushing out 296hp and 361Nm of torque ensures that this full-sized MPV is able to cruise sedately with ample power to spare when needed. Transmitting power to the front wheels through a direct-shift 8-speed automatic transmission, the Lexus LM350 makes light work of any journey as it whispers along in quiet confidence.
Undoubtedly, safety remains a priority for all Lexus models and the LM350 comes with no less than the Lexus Safety System + (LSS+). It features the Pre-Collision System (PCS), Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), Lane Tracing Assist (LTA), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), Adaptive High-Beam System (AHS) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) among others while seven airbags including two side curtain airbags reduce the risk of serious injury in a collision.
Inside the Lexus LM350 is where the pearl is truly found. The driver undoubtedly gains many of the features available in other Lexus models including a 12.3inch touch screen with controls that be activated through a touch pad, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity and plush semi-aniline leather seats. But much of the focus is placed on pampering the rear passengers.
By placing just four seats in the Lexus LM350, there is an abundance of space to accommodate the pair of VIP lounge seats with generous legroom available even when the Adaptipedic seats are fully reclined. Activate the Ottoman massage function in the air cooled or heated seats through touch controls on the rear central console to sooth you after a long day in the office. Enjoy too the dynamic full-bodied sound stage created by the 19- speaker Mark Levinson reference sound system that is able to offer you opera-house clarity.
Every journey in the Lexus LM350 is never just idled away as there is a 26-inch full HD display panel mounted between the two rows of seats. The screen has numerous playback functions and connectivity options so you can catch up on your favourite series or even conduct meetings in Lexus comfort. To ensure your privacy, Lexus engineers have included a glass partition that can be raised or lowered at a touch of a button.
With space comes the ability to indulge. A fold-out magazine rack ensures that your daily readings can be tucked away neatly while large cubicles on both sides of the vehicle allows you to elegantly stow a handbag or an attache case out of the way. A mini fridge ensures your drinks are kept chilled at the optimum temperature that you prefer.
“In true Lexus fashion, the engineers have crafted a vehicle that heralds a new level of dignity in luxury motoring. From the immense road presence of the vehicle to the finite details of each interior component, the all-new Lexus LM350 is crafted to exceed the desires of those who appreciate the highest level of style and comfort on the move,” said President of Lexus Malaysia Mr Ravindran K.
“Lexus has once again delivered on the promise of elevating executive-class travel on the road. Whether your journeys are for urban commutes or inter-state travels, the notion of being transported in sophisticated elegance, top-level comfort and advanced safety is not compromised. Few vehicles on the road today are able deliver you in such a capable and dignified manner as the LM350 does,” added Deputy Chairman of Lexus Malaysia Mr Akio Takeyama.
With the official launch of the all-new Lexus LM350 expected to be held in May of 2021 with the first owners receiving the keys a month later, Lexus Malaysia is encouraging eager buyers to place their bookings now to secure their vehicles.
