Lexus RX Prototype Spied

The Lexus RX prototypes spotted in the past have all been heavily camoflaged, but this latest prototype has shed much of the black clad padding giving us our best look yet at the eventual styling.

The Lexus designers have clearly focused on evolution rather than revolution for the next generation model, the overall body profile remains the same, but we will see a more modernised design using the LF-Xh Concept as inspiration.

At launch the engine line-up which includes the 3.5-liter V6 will stay largely unchanged but further down the line we should see the introduction of a 400 horsepower powerplant. Production for the new model will commence in late December before going on sales early in 2009 as a 2010 model. We should see its worldwide debut at the Paris Motor Show in September.
