Lexus LF-Xh

The Lexus LF-Xh concept will make it’s debut at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show next week, and is most probably a preview of what the production version of the next generation Lexus RX SUV will look like.

The new Lexus LF-Xh concept is 4800mm long, 1895mm wide and 1650mm tall with a 2850mm wheelbase, which makes it slightly wider and longer but shorter than the current Lexus RX/Toyota Harrier (4729mm x 1844mm x 1679mm), but with a significantly longer wheelbase of 2850mm versus the current RX’s 2715mm.

It will be powered by an all-wheel drive system incorporating both a V6 petrol engine and a high-output electric motor hybrid system.

Plenty more photos after the jump.

    don’t think the interior is going to be like that. Nice mazda front headlamps. Or was it the Alfa brera or something like that

    Wow there a lot of LED used in everywhere!
    Front looks very evils with those bold and sharp lines!
    Those wheel already extended to their very four ends means its has bigger interior! This translate to better grip too(wider and lengther stances)….
    The rear view too bland!
    The side rear view mirror looks sissy!

    Awesome!!. I think this should be the replacement for the RX. Menacing look and sporty. Should rival BMW X6. Just put a normal dash and side mirrors it should do very well!!!

    Wow..I like this! It’s sleek, modern, sharp and all-round menacing. Notice the wing-mirror has been replaced? I think there’s a camera there, like what we saw with the Honda Civic Modulo. At first glance, it immediately reminded me of the Harrier.

    Nice concept car. I like the way the future looks. hehe… For a while, I always though Toyota makes boring looking car which only emphasize on more interior space and consequently a fatty exterior looks.

    Note they are using cameras for the rear view mirrors. I wonder how well will that work? I wonder if this will solve the blind spot problem.

    I like to see a fuel efficient SUV for once. Not just a nametag Hybrid.

    Current Harrier 2.4L is selling around RM 240K, without NAP, fair price should be around RM 150K! This new car if available in the market say in 2010, it shall be lower than the current price if NAP tax is gradually phase out!
