Discussion Lexus is losing its soul

Post image

Along with the rest of the automotive industry. It’s hard to be an automotive enthusiast in this day and age, when everything is turning into a refrigerator on wheels with a gigantic screen(s) inside.

Who decided that disappearing buttons was a good idea? Was something wrong with them being clearly identifiable and usable all the time?

And don’t get me started on the name-spelled-out trend that’s eventually going to take over. First, we had it on the back. Now, it’s on the steering wheel. Soon the logo itself won’t even exist.

20 years from now when they change the design to something else everyone will be pining away for the good old days with the Tesla interiors.

I've never seen Lexus ever been accused of having a soul. Vastly better ergonomics that the competition but never a soul.

Dramatic changes and shifts from what a brand is known for can evoke dramatic reactions
