Travel like an executive with the Lexus LM

MANILA: Lexus Philippines continues to offer the comfortable and highly exclusive LM350, the brand’s first luxury minivan.

The LM, which stands for Luxury Mover, exhibits the best of takumi craftsmanship. The van’s sophisticated interior design is inspired by omotenashi, the Japanese art of remarkable experiences and hospitality.

Both the four-seater and seven-seater variants come with reclining captain seats with a choice of seven different massage settings with five levels of pressure. The rear passenger seats are made with AdaptiPedic foam that absorbs vibrations and adapts to the shape of the occupant’s body to provide premium comfort even on long rides.

If the passengers would like to have some privacy, they can simply push a button to raise a glass panel between the first- and second-row seats. The cabin is also equipped with a Mark Levinson surround sound system and a mini fridge that can accommodate up to two bottles of champagne.

Although it is packed with luxurious details and premium features, the LM350 does not compromise on power and performance. It is motivated by a high-powered 3.5-liter quad cam V6 engine that generates 296hp. It has the ability to accelerate from a standstill to 100kph in seven seconds. The LM350 is also equipped with 18-inch noise-reducing alloy rims finished in hyper chrome metallic.

Since Lexus always prioritizes safety, the LM also comes with an adaptive high-beam system, pre-collision system, lane-tracing assist, dynamic radar cruise control, blind-spot monitor, parking support brake, and rear cross-traffic alert.

While the LM carries a more luxurious price tag than most high-end minivans, Lexus has certainly succeeded in transforming an essential into something exceptional.
