After killing the LS sedan and ahead of the Japan Mobility Show, Lexus teases a new LS as a minivan with 6 wheels


Lexus recently signaled the beginning of the end for the LS with a Heritage Edition honoring the car that essentially launched Toyota’s luxury brand. But much has changed in the 36 years since the original LS debuted. In 2025, some buyers would rather drive, or be chauffeured, in a minivan.

This dramatic shift in customer preferences is reflected in Lexus’ decision to introduce the LM (Luxury Mover) as a high-end version of the Alphard. But that’s not all. The LS itself is now getting the minivan treatment, at least in concept form. Formerly known as the Tokyo Motor Show, the Japan Mobility Show will host this surprise debut: an LS-badged minivan with six wheels.

The face and the rear of roof are doing some active things there.

Well, the less bending down to not wrinkle your suit or crumple your dress, the better. Not to mention if driving distracts people from social media, give them room and a nice backdrop when on the go.
 
It's like Toyota saw that breadbox van concept Musk was waving around last year and said "How about we do that, but make it actually functional?"

It'll be a nice shuttle transport for the business class set, anyway. Wouldn't want to be seen arriving to the hotel in a dented Ford Transit like the other plebs, right?
