Lexus LM 350h Deliveries Begin in India, Starting at Rs 2 Crore
Lexus has officially commenced the deliveries of India’s most expensive MPV, the Lexus LM 350h, which starts at Rs 2 crore. This ultra-luxury MPV has generated significant anticipation since bookings opened in August last year, following its launch in March.
Lexus LM 350h: A New Benchmark in Luxury
The Lexus LM 350h introduces unparalleled luxury to the MPV segment. Built on the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA), similar to the Toyota Vellfire, the LM 350h is available in two distinct variants: the LM 350h VIP and the Ultra Luxury.
The LM 350h VIP, priced at Rs 2 crore, is a seven-seater designed for families, offering ample space and comfort. The more premium Ultra Luxury variant, priced at Rs 2.5 crore, redefines opulence with its four-seater configuration, featuring interiors akin to a first-class airline cabin. This variant includes a partition with a 48-inch ultrawide screen separating the front seats from the rear cabin, which boasts two lounge Ottoman chairs. This setup is ideal for a chauffeur-driven experience, ensuring maximum comfort and privacy for passengers.
Both variants are equipped with top-tier features, including a 23-speaker Mark Levinson sound system and a multi-operational armrest with remote controllers. The dashboard in the front houses a 14-inch HD touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and a 10-inch head-up display, ensuring that both drivers and passengers have access to the latest technology and convenience.
Performance and Specifications
Under the hood, the Lexus LM 350h is powered by a 2.5-litre petrol hybrid engine, delivering a combined output of 190 bhp and 240 Nm of torque. The drivetrain is all-wheel-drive, providing a smooth and stable driving experience regardless of road conditions.
