Lexus launches a futuristic minivan in the business segment

Keeping up with the latest technological innovations and design trends, car manufacturer Lexus is launching its latest model, the LM, a minivan with the comfort of a private jet. This new and luxurious minivan of the future has everything passengers need to experience the highest level of comfort during their journey, with a futuristic blend of technology and modern luxury.

As the manufacturer points out, the sophisticated Lexus LM is designed to stand out. In developing this model, the car manufacturer studied the private jet customer segment to offer them a first-class ground travel experience. It offers the highest level of comfort for those who can appreciate modern design combined with the comforts of a private jet.

The Lexus LM is available in two versions, the four-seater VIP comfort and the classic seven-seater. The overall length of this model is 5130 mm, width 1890 mm and height 1945 mm. The car’s spacious interior, boxy body and 3000 mm wheelbase allow for maximum room in the rear. This is perfectly complemented by the rigidity of the massive body and the most advanced drive, braking and adaptive suspension technologies, which provide outstanding safety and dynamics while maintaining driving comfort.

The four-seat model is a showcase of business comfort convenience and modern technology, with two multifunctional airline seats and a myriad of modern features to make every journey exceptionally comfortable and enjoyable. The classic seven-seat model has a middle row of seats for comfort, while the third row can be raised and lowered as required, providing space for luggage.

The Lexus LM is equipped with a next-generation 2.5-litre self-charging hybrid petrol engine and all-wheel drive, offering 184 kW (250 hp) of power for an ultra-smooth ride and a top speed of 190 km/h. It accelerates to 100 km/h in just 8.7 seconds. This shows that comfort and power can go hand in hand in the minivan segment. The LM features the third generation Lexus Safety System, which includes a driving assist system and a fatigue monitor to improve driver focus on the road. It also features an advanced collision avoidance system that recognises and helps avoid crash situations. The car itself recognises obstacles ahead and will never let the car crash into a slower vehicle.

From the outside, the expressive exterior of this limousine-like car shows glimpses of Lexus and other car manufacturers, as indicated by the massive and robust contours of the car, making it look like a boxy lump. And the Lexus-specific radiator grille, visible at the front, is even larger. But it should be remembered that it is comfort and the latest and most advanced technologies that are valued more highly than visual contours.

Inside, passengers can feel uniquely comfortable and enjoy the journey to the fullest, whether relaxing in the comfortable leather seats or working, thanks to the LM’s ultra-sleek design and everything needed for a modern working environment, making it a mobile luxury office on wheels. This level of comfort is unrivalled even by the most elite cinema seating, because the manufacturer wanted to give its customers the comfort of a private jet, and it has succeeded. It is not for nothing that they call it “the plane on the ground”.

LM has focused on the four-seat model. It offers an unforgettable driving experience, complemented by exquisite interior details, making every journey a special occasion. Its multifunctional and ventilated air seats offer the highest quality and comfort piloting that will be appreciated by everyone who can afford it.

The most advanced technologies that run through the cabin are certainly worth mentioning. If things like a refrigerator, air quality and temperature precisely controlled by thermal sensors and state-of-the-art lighting are no longer special in the business class segment, then the 48-inch widescreen display and the Mark Levinson 3D Surround Sound audio system, specially developed for this model, which can be controlled via touch-sensitive control panels in the armrests, are particularly noteworthy.

Also noteworthy is the glass panel between the driver and passengers, which can be blacked out for privacy. For longer journeys, this combination will provide cinema lovers and music lovers with HD-quality video and a superb audio experience akin to a private concert hall or home cinema. Even the finest businessmen and VIPs will be impressed.
