Lexus has provided the first look at a new model lineup to be called the LBX, which will debut on June 5 in Milan, Italy.

Two teaser photos show part of the front end of the car and the signature taillights.

The LBX is believed to be a new subcompact crossover sitting below the compact UX and aimed at the European market, which means it probably won’t make it to the US.

Lexus has been hinting in a new model positioned below the UX for years, and in 2021 teased a subcompact crossover with design features similar to those shown in the LBX trailers.

Lexus LBX Preview Debuting June 5, 2023

Any subcompact crossover from Lexus will probably twin with the toyota yaris crossa subcompact crossover based on Toyota’s TNGA-B platform and sold outside the US.

The Yaris Cross is 164.5 inches long, making it about 9 inches shorter than the compact C-HR. An available hybrid powertrain offers a maximum of 114 hp. Similar specs should show up on any Lexus twin.

While the US is likely to miss out on the LBX, Lexus has two new SUVs heading to local showrooms shortly. one is a 2024 GX redesigned and the other is a new three-row SUV that will be called the tx. The GX will be twin with a redesigned Toyota Land Cruiser Prado sold abroad, while the TX will be twin with the new 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander.
