Lexus

Lexus entered Britain as Toyota's luxury marque, initially challenging established executive saloons with quiet petrol engines, high equipment levels and a strong focus on refinement. The range later expanded into SUVs, coupes and hybrids, with petrol electric drivetrains becoming a defining part of its UK identity. Its register is therefore younger than those of European prestige marques but covers several generations of cars bought primarily for comfort, quality and understated luxury.
