The automotive world always pays special attention to limited editions, especially when it comes to models that are at the intersection of luxury and performance, and this is exactly what the newly introduced Lexus LBX Morizo RR Original Edition is, which has become not only a spectacular car, but also a real symbol of individuality, because the company decided to release it in the amount of only one hundred copies, which will not appear in traditional retail, but will be distributed exclusively by the results of a special lottery, which makes each such car not only rare, but also practically inaccessible even for those who have a sufficient level of income and would like to simply buy this crossover as a collectible or as an emotional car for every day. At the same time, the very essence of the concept of this Lexus is based not so much on commercial interest, but on the desire to emphasize the idea of automotive individuality and give fans of the brand a sense of involvement in the inner world of the brand and its philosophy, because the design of the car and the details of execution refer to the personal taste of Akio Toyoda - the head of Toyota, a man for whom a car is not just a means of transportation, but an object of passion, engineering research and emotional drive.
The Lexus LBX Morizo RR Original Edition is painted in a rich gray color called Sonic Chrome, thanks to which the body looks aggressive and technological, and the bright yellow accents on the front body kit and brake calipers not only visually emphasize the sporty character of the car, but also make a reference to the unique Lexus concept car, which was demonstrated at one of the motor shows last year and caused a lot of discussions due to the atypical combination of a compact format and categorical dynamics, becoming a kind of manifesto of the brand, which decided to show that crossovers can also be real sports cars. The interior of the special version, oddly enough, remained identical to the basic version of the LBX Morizo RR, but in this case this is not a drawback, but rather a continuation of the philosophy of minimalism and focus on the technical stuffing, because under the hood there is a really interesting unit that can surprise even those who are accustomed to "charged" models with nameplates from other manufacturers.
The car's power is provided by a three-cylinder turbocharged engine with a volume of 1.6 liters, which develops an impressive three hundred horsepower and four hundred Newton meters of torque, which is an absolutely non-standard indicator for crossovers of this class, especially considering that we are talking about a power unit with three cylinders, and all this in combination with the ability to choose either a six-speed manual transmission or an eight-speed automatic transmission, working together with an all-wheel drive system, which provides the car with confident acceleration from zero to one hundred kilometers per hour in just five point two seconds, which puts it on a par with full-fledged sports coupes, while maintaining all the advantages of a crossover, including an elevated landing, comfort on uneven surfaces and the convenience of everyday use, which is traditionally appreciated among fans of the Lexus brand.
However, the availability of this car is still in great question, because, as already mentioned, it will be impossible to purchase it in the standard manner - the company decided that all one hundred copies will be distributed exclusively by the results of a special draw, the details of which have not yet been disclosed, which means that even potential buyers with high financial capabilities cannot count on directly purchasing this crossover, which, on the one hand, makes it a status object of desire, and on the other hand, demonstrates how much Lexus is ready to experiment with marketing strategies, creating not just cars, but stories in which the car becomes part of an emotional experience associated with luck, passion for the brand and the opportunity to touch a product directly related to the worldview and personal taste of one of the most influential people in the modern automotive industry.
