McGregor said that he does not think that their company is currently behind in terms of EV drivetrain technology.
He explained that analysts and experts would see Lexus keep up with what they need to keep up with in the marketplace and the company will remain at the forefront of driveline development.
He pointed out that if one looks back at the range of hybrid vehicles that Lexus offers, it’s one of the best in the industry, especially in terms of vehicle by vehicle in the range because there is usually a petrol and hybrid outcome.
The Lexus LX is a full-size luxury sports utility vehicle (SUV) sold by Lexus since January 1996 having entered manufacture in November 1995.
Three generations have been produced, all based heavily on the long-running Toyota Land Cruiser SUVs.
The first generation LX 450 started production in 1995 as Lexus’ first entry into the SUV market. Its successor, the LX 470, premiered in 1998 and was produced until 2006.
The latest, third-generation, LX 570 debuted at the New York International Auto Show in April 2007 as a complete redesign for the 2008 model year.
The LX is not available in Japan where it is manufactured. The LX name stands for ‘Luxury Crossover.’ However, some Lexus importers use the name, ‘Luxury Four Wheel Drive.’
