Does Lexus Have Domestic Production Cars?
2 Answers
Lexus does not have domestically produced models. Below is more information about Lexus: 1. Lexus is an imported car brand under the Japanese Toyota Group. The brand is most renowned for its efforts to cultivate a luxurious image. A typical Lexus dealership features large floor-to-ceiling windows in the service department, allowing customers to observe their vehicle's maintenance process. Services sometimes include complimentary loaner cars, free car washes, and convenient shuttle bus services. 2. The Lexus ES Excellence Edition is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power output of 127 kilowatts, a maximum power speed of 6,600 revolutions per minute, and a maximum torque speed ranging from 4,400 to 5,200 revolutions per minute.
Currently, all Lexus vehicles sold in China are imported, with no locally produced versions. As someone who has long followed the automotive industry, I've noticed that their cars are shipped directly from Japanese factories, adhering to production in their country of origin to maintain that premium sense of quality and reliability. In contrast, German luxury brands like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, or Audi have long been localized, produced through joint ventures in China, which makes them cheaper but may also introduce some variations in assembly. There are many reasons why Lexus chooses not to produce locally: Toyota executives might be concerned that local production could affect the brand's image, especially since it emphasizes Japanese craftsmanship and global uniform standards. Popular models like the ES or RX, despite being subject to high import taxes and higher prices, offer exceptional durability. Are there plans for local production in the future? There are industry rumors that Toyota is evaluating the Chinese market, but there's no concrete news yet. If local production does happen, I suspect quality control would be the primary challenge.
