The Lexus LBX has just been made a little more expressive thanks to a series of styling upgrades developed by Modellista. None of the custom touches are particularly dramatic but that’s probably a good thing as a sub-compact SUV like the LBX is already quite the looker.

Modellista‘s first upgrades for the LBX consist of a new front bumper extension, side skirts, and a rear bumper add-on. These tweaks come as part of the Advanced Luxury Package and add new high-gloss silver trim to the bumpers and the skirts. Were Lexus to ever build an ‘F Sport’ version of the LBX, we imagine it could look a little like this.

The Toyota-owned accessory company has also crafted a small piece of silver trim that can be attached to the front quarter panel, just behind the headlights. Additionally, a curved silver trim can also be added to the tailgate and sits right below the LED light bar.

Modellista Adds Some Fire To The Lexus LBX Baby SUV

The most overt upgrade available from Modellista is a special set of 19-inch wheels. These wheels have silver spokes and suit the LBX perfectly.

Underpinning the Lexus LBX is Toyota’s GA-B architecture and it is unique from other Lexus products as it will be sold solely as a hybrid. The entry-level model has a 1.5-liter three-cylinder petrol engine, two electric motors, and front-wheel drive while the flagship variant uses three electric motors and has all-wheel drive. Total output sits at 134 hp and 136 lb-ft (185 Nm) of torque, allowing the tiny SUV to hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in 9.2 seconds.

Lexus has outfitted the LBX with an impressively premium cabin. Key features include a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a 9.8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wired Android Auto, ambient leather, and the option of semi-aniline leather and Ultrasuede.
