Lexus India has officially reopened bookings for its ultra-premium MPV, the Lexus LM 350h, after a pause in September 2024 due to overwhelming demand and supply chain limitations. With prices ranging between ₹2.10 crore and ₹2.63 crore (ex-showroom), the LM 350h is positioned as one of the most luxurious and expensive offerings from the Japanese brand in India.
Lexus LM 350h Bookings Reopen in India
Why Were Bookings Halted?
Bookings for the LM 350h initially started in August 2023, and within just a month, Lexus received over 100 orders. This strong early demand, combined with global supply chain issues, forced the brand to temporarily halt bookings in September 2024.
A Luxury Version of the Toyota Vellfire
The Lexus LM 350h is built on the same platform as the Toyota Vellfire but takes the luxury quotient several notches higher. From the outside to the inside, every element screams opulence and exclusivity.
Variants, Seating, and Color Options
- Seating Configurations: Available in both 4-seater and 7-seater layouts.
- Exterior Colors: Sonic Titanium, Sonic Quartz, Graphite Black Glass Flake, Sonic Agate

Feature-Packed for the Elite
The Lexus LM 350h comes with an array of luxury features, including:
- 14-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
- 48-inch rear entertainment screen
- 23-speaker premium audio system
- Heated armrests, fold-out tables, reading lights
- Vanity mirrors, umbrella holder, refrigerator
This extensive list ensures a truly first-class experience on wheels.
Performance and Powertrain
Under the hood, the LM 350h features a 2.5-litre, four-cylinder petrol hybrid engine producing 190 bhp and 240 Nm of torque. The engine is paired with a CVT automatic gearbox, offering smooth and refined performance suited for chauffeur-driven luxury travel.
Lexus LM 350h: Closest Rival in India
Though it has no direct rival, its sibling — the Toyota Vellfire — remains the LM’s closest competitor in the Indian market. However, the LM 350h is clearly aimed at a more exclusive, high-end clientele.
Final Thoughts
With bookings now reopened, Lexus is ready to meet the demand of India’s ultra-luxury segment once again. Whether you’re looking for supreme comfort or wish to make a statement with your next vehicle purchase, the LM 350h delivers on all fronts.
