AutoExec Summary
John Pappas, CEO of Lexus Australia, confirmed that a new large luxury SUV, the RX PHEV, is in the works. The RX PHEV will likely be the second most expensive model in the range, with details on timing, variants, and pricing still being finalized. The RX PHEV will feature a 2.5-litre petrol engine combined with e-motors, offering a total output of 227kW and an electric-only range of up to 65km. However, there are no plans for a seven-seat RX L replacement, with Lexus focusing on expanding their lineup to meet customer needs. Additionally, Lexus Australia will be launching the RZ 450e battery-electric SUV and the upgraded UX 300e mid-year in an effort to achieve record sales.
