Lexus SUVs increase in popularity

Lexus sales have increased by 12 per cent in 2016 - from 641 vehicles sold in 2015 and 720 in 2016. According to senior general manager of Lexus New Zealand, Paul Carroll, an increasing share of the luxury market is SUV sales. "Our SUVs – the NX, RX and LX – have made up 73 per cent of all our sales.” “Lexus has progressively evolved its model range to meet our customers’ insatiable desire for premium SUVs,” Carroll
 says. "The growth in the SUV segment in New Zealand's luxury market is even more pronounced than at the mainstream end of the market," says general sales manager, Steve Prangnell,.
