Officially this is just a concept, but the Lexus LF-NX is supposed to preview an upcoming competitor to the BMW X1 and Audi Q3. Using the familiar 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid powertrain, the LF-NX will be available in FWD or AWD variants, though specific figures like power output have yet to be announced.

I am a huuuuge fan of Lexus's previous L-finesse and now their new design language. BUT this is honestly a very ugly vehicle. I just can't see any beauty in this design. I almost think it is more of a shock & awe approach that will be significantly toned down on the concept.
Ahhh, Batman's Boy Wonder's vehicle.
I didn't know Leepu was working for the Lexus design studio now!
If you look at the back area above the wheel, the RAV4 underpinnings are a little more clear. This is just a design mess. I don't think we're moving forward here with design, even though this is a concept. Think about what the original RX concept looked like! http://testdrivejunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/1997-lexus-slv2.jpg
