Lexus LM Hybrid review: Singapore's most expensive new MPV offers superlative luxury for captains of industryWhen Toyota introduced the Vellfire Hybrid last year, it amazed many because of how even more upmarket the model had become. From its silence, its comfort to its drive, everything was taken at least a notch higher.
For starters, the LM is 120mm longer, with an overall length of 5,125mm further magnifying its presence. Its front end is also more unique, with a spindle-shaped, body-coloured grille as opposed to a shiny one. The sharp daytime running lights, seen on other Lexus models, are a particularly striking touch.
Interestingly, there are two sets of controls for the powered sliding doors. This redundancy doesn't seem to make sense, but in the luxury world, convenience matters. A user who's opening/closing the shades may wish to open or close the sliding doors without having to look for the switches beside the steering wheel.
"Remote is not connected to the vehicle. Operation is restricted." These were the messages displayed on both devices, which meant that the 14-inch screen facing rear occupants couldn't be deployed. Temperature, lighting and audio functions were unavailable on the remotes, too. Indeed, the ride is plush and remains silent, so long as the driver doesn't decide to pin the accelerator pedal to the floor. Woolly surfaces won't upset the LM, especially not when it has Adaptive Variable Suspension , which Lexus says reduces vibration over a wide range of frequencies.
