What does luxury look like from inside? Interiors of the entire Lexus line up compared

When luxury comes as standard, the only thing left to ask is, which model would you choose?

When a name confers an image, evokes a meaning or creates a perception, the associative imagery demonstrates the power of the company's branding. Companies work very hard to pursue a singular brand identity because the human brain can only create, retain and recall one meaning at a time. The stronger the recollection of that meaning, the more successful that brand has been at creating consumer awareness. 

In the cluster of Australasian countries, Lexus has kept to just one branding statement. You'll find it on billboards, advertisement insertions and even on the back of the business cards handed out by the sales consultants. The statement reads: Only Lexus promises the true luxury.


True to their word, every Lexus since the inaugural and iconic LS 400 of 1989 has lived up to the promise of peerless luxury. Every Lexus cabin is a silent chamber on wheels, affording occupants unequalled isolation from the world outside. And every Lexus brims with technology which operates quietly in the background, but works to an astonishing degree of intelligence to keep you safe at all speeds the vehicle is driven at. 

What can you expect when you step inside the cabin of a Lexus? That's what I decided to find out. What follows next is an invitation into the cabin of every Lexus from the base line CT to the top of the line LS.

DRIVEN: Lexus ES 250 Luxury

It's supposedly Lexus Malaysia's bread and butter model. Did they get the formula right? I had to find out for myself.

So here it is: The Lexus ES 250 Luxury. A car I've always considered to be the replacement to my IS 250. In contrast to the IS 250 which targets young executives and small families, the ES 250 offers more space and appeals to the matured you. 






Age-wise, I'm flirting with the wrong side of 30s. Allegedly, this is the time when you're supposed to take things slower, dial down the pace of life and slowly take your lead foot off the pedals. I'm prepared to trade in some of that hard-nosed brisk performance for a vehicle set up for comfort and relaxed cruising, while losing none of the onboard gadgetry the IS 250 offered. 

So let's take the Lexus ES 250 for a spin. If Lexus got their calculations right, this car should speak to me like a mother cooing at her newborn for the first time.

I decided to pop over to the Lexus Showroom @ Jalan Sultan Ismail today...


I'm so used to the bigger Lexus showroom at Mutiara Damansara that it made me think, 'I wonder what it's like at the KL showroom.' Today was a relaxing Saturday and I didn't have much on my plate. On a lark, I decided to hop over to the Lexus KL Showroom at the Life Centre along Jalan Sultan Ismail to see what's going on and what Lexus models I can drool over. 







This particular dealership, by virtue of the premium space it commands, plays second fiddle to the Mutiara Damansara showroom which is easily three times larger. I had to manage my expectations to avoid disappointment in case they didn't have every model currently sold by Lexus Malaysia.

Service was a bit slow in the beginning to be honest.
