From October 1 to 6, 2024, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., you can see the Lexus LBX at the basement of the Central Exchange (TRX), the smallest Lexus SUV imported entirely from Japan (CBU). The LBX was developed to meet the requirements of Toyota's Chairman and master driver Morizo.
The Lexus LBX comes in a monochrome version and a two-tone version, with the latter being more expensive. Currently, there are two models of the monochrome version on sale in the country. Positioned as a B-class SUV, the price range is between RM 238,888 and 268,888, the high-end model has larger 18-inch rims. All Lexus LBXs come with a five-year unlimited mileage warranty and an eight-year unlimited mileage battery warranty, with an option for an additional two years of warranty.

This smallest Lexus SUV model measures 4190mm in length, 1825mm in width, 1550mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2560mm, making it smaller than the BMW X1 and Mercedes-Benz GLA.
The high-end Lexus LBX Luxury will perform better in intelligent driving, equipped with assisted driving and automatic parking features to save parking trouble. In addition, it also has a Head-Up Display to help the driver focus on driving. The high-end model is also more luxurious in terms of audio and video entertainment, with the cabin equipped with a 13-speaker Mark Levinson sound system.
The power system option of Lexus LBX is the M15A-FXE 1.5-litre naturally aspirated Atkinson cycle three-cylinder engine. This engine generates 91 PS power alone at 5,500 rpm and 120 Nm torque between 3,800 and 4,800 rpm. The driving force is transmitted to the front wheels, enabling the LBX to accelerate from zero to 100 km/hour in 9.2 seconds.

Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?
Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.
Perodua Myvi and Bezza may undergo major upgrades in 2026
After the update, the Bezza will no longer be just a low-cost alternative but a core model in the Perodua system with greater market competitiveness and brand premium potential. The upgrade of the Myvi is not to be unconventional but to strengthen the brand and market, ensuring that the Myvi continues to maintain its irreplaceable position in the new round of product competition.
Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?
Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.
Will the Toyota Yaris Cross come to Malaysia? If it comes, how much will it sell for?
The launch of Perodua Traz indicates that the market size of small SUVs in Malaysia has been expanding in recent years. However, the question naturally shifts back to Toyota. As a brand with the most comprehensive product line and a strong foundation in both the SUV and hybrid sectors, will Toyota choose the Yaris Cross to participate in this small SUV competition?
Why is the Toyota Sienna so popular with so many people?
In Malaysia, most family MPVs choose Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, or Kia Carnival. These models each have their advantages in luxury, space, or brand influence, but models that truly balance large space, multifunctional practicality, fuel efficiency, and reliability are rarely seen.
