The business provided us an concept of what to expect from the newcomer with the striking, angular LF-NX idea at September’s Frankfurt motor Show. Every aspect of the style triggered a stir, from the huge spindle grille as well as split headlights up front to the muscular flanks as well as deep slashes running down from the tail-lamps at the rear.
Our special picture shows exactly how the final production design will accept the concept’s questionable look. as well as while the styling won’t be to everyone’s taste, it’s even more proof of Lexus’ sharp style language, very first seen on the most recent IS.

The large spindle grille remains, ensuring that the cars and truck is still instantaneously recognisable as part of the Lexus family. however the lights have been toned down, as well as now look like those of the new Jeep Cherokee. The flared wheelarches as well as rippled bodywork along each flank remain, although the production NX’s wheelbase is a bit longer than the concept’s to guarantee there’s lots of area for occupants, front as well as rear.
