The strange action of Lexus to produce a very different car! + Photo

According to the online economy report, Gadget News wrote: Takashi Watanabe, the president of Lexus, recently announced in a press conference in Japan that if there is a good demand for a luxury and practical pickup truck from customers, we will also order the design of an electric pickup truck. We will do our work, which of course will be different from all Toyota pickup trucks.

The Lexus pickup is on its way

According to the head of Lexus, the pickup of this company will be completely different from Toyota pickups such as Tundra, Tacoma and Hilux; Because Lexus plans to produce an electric pickup, and therefore will not develop it based on Toyota’s current internal combustion pickups. Also, the Lexus pickup will be designed to meet the needs of different customers, and if there is enough demand for this product, its construction plan will also be on the agenda.

Since Lexus, as Toyota’s luxury brand, focuses only on passenger products, producing a pickup truck is a strange move. Of course, in 2019, this company showed that it can include such utility vehicles in its product portfolio by introducing the LM minivan.

Minivan LM as a luxury and expensive car was initially released only in the Chinese market, from the beginning of 2023 in its second generation, it made its way to more than 60 countries of the world, including Japan, Australia and some European countries.

It should be mentioned that until now none of the luxury brands could appear in the pickup market; For example, the Lincoln company with the Blackwood pickup and the Cadillac brand with the Escalade EXT pickup did not achieve success.
