Lexus released a teaser for the concept of a new minivan in the LS line, but with an unusual detail: the vehicle will have six wheels instead of four.
The concept will be officially presented at the Japan Mobility Show (formerly known as the Tokyo Motor Show), which begins on October 29.
While preparing for the presentation, Lexus has already released a teaser for the LS Minivan, which appeared briefly during a 90-minute live stream by the brand.
The shadowed images suggest that the van will have a large electric sliding door instead of a passenger door. And speaking of electric, while Lexus has not released any details, it is safe to assume that the LS Minivan will be 100% electric.
This assumption makes sense as an electric vehicle helps save space in the cabin, something that seems to be the focus of the new Lexus minivan, whose interior, combined with the boxy design and high roof, resembles more a living room on wheels.
In addition to the six wheels, the LS concept also innovates in lighting. Inside, vertical LED daytime running lights extend the full height of the front panel, while the rear light bar extends upward, emphasizing the considerable height of the vehicle.
Whether Lexus really intends to bring this three-axle vehicle to production remains a mystery. But at its core, the concept seems to have achieved its goal: to attract public attention.
