Lexus TX SUV’s Design Element Revealed In Teaser, Global Debut Soon

Lexus has unveiled the first glimpses of its much-awaited TX SUV. The teasers feature a rear quarter panel, offering a look at the ‘floating’ roof design of the premium SUV. Lexus TX will reportedly be the brand’s more premium take on the Toyota Grand Highlander. The upcoming SUV will be offered in a three-row seating layout with improved space compared to the previous-generation RX-L three-row.

According to a Car and Driver report, Lexus has filed trademark applications for the monikers TX350, TX500h and TX550h+. This essentially means that the TX SUV will be offered in three powertrains which include petrol and hybrid powertrains.

Furthermore, the TX is expected to be mechanically similar to the Grand Highlander.

Toyota’s Grand Highlander is available with three engines. The engine on the base variant is a 2.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder. There’s also a hybrid-assisted 2.5-litre four-cylinder. Hybrid Max is the range-topping powertrain that generates 362 horsepower and can sprint from 0-100kph in just 6.3 seconds.

The Grand Highlander is pitched as a ‘perfect’ SUV for outdoor adventures. Lexus will likely market its TX SUV on similar lines.
