Lexus Australia now has a full range of LM people movers, with the range now capped by the four-seat LM 500h Ultra Luxury.
The LM range, launched late in 2023, opens with the seven-seat LM 350h Sports Luxury which Lexus says is “perfect for families and executive transport.”
It’s available with either front- or all-wheel drive, and is priced from $160,888 before on-road costs.
It combines a 2.5-litre inline four-cylinder engine with an electric motor for a combined power output of 184kW.
The top-spec LM 500h Ultra Luxury features a more powerful hybrid powertrain which utilises a turbocharged 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine, with a total system output of 272kW.
Lexus says the four-seat LM 500h Ultra Luxury variant was designed “to offer a level of indulgence and cocooned refinement normally experienced at 35,000 feet”, and ditches the third row of seating while offering a more luxurious second row.
At $220,888 before on-roads, the Lexus LM 500h Ultra Luxury is the brand’s most expensive model, pipping even the Lexus LC 500 convertible and Lexus LX 600 Ultra Luxury SUV.
All prices exclude on-road costs.
LM 350h models are powered by a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine with a series-parallel hybrid system producing system outputs of 184kW and 270Nm. It’s available with either front- or all-wheel drive.
The all-wheel drive LM 500h on the other hand is powered by a Direct4 hybrid system which combines a 2.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 202kW of power, a 64kW electric motor on the front axle as well as a 76kW eAxle electric motor which is mounted on the rear axle.
Total system outputs are 272kW.
Both models use a nickel-metal hydride battery to operate their hybrid systems.
The Lexus LM 350h 2WD uses a claimed 5.5L/100km on the combined cycle, while the Lexus LM 350h AWD uses a claimed 5.6L/100km and the LM 500h uses 6.6L/100km.
All models have a 60L fuel tank.
The 2024 Lexus LM measures 5130mm long, 1890mm wide, 1950mm tall, with a 2870mm wheelbase.
The Lexus LM 350h has seating for seven passengers. Lexus claims the LM 350h has 110L of boot space behind the third row.
The LM 500h can seat four passengers and has 752L of boot space.
All models come with a temporary spare tyre.
The 2024 Lexus LM is covered by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty, like all new Lexus models.
Lexus Australia will charge $695 per service every 12 months or every 15,000km for the first five years or 75,000km.
The Lexus LM is yet to receive a safety rating from ANCAP or Euro NCAP.
