Every Lexus is based on an uncompromising approach to creating premium automobiles. Inspired by our ‘Yet’ philosophy, we seek innovation in every facet of engineering through a sophisticated fusion of seemingly incompatible ideas such as ‘high performance yet high fuel efficiency’. In addition, unique Lexus styling is born of our L-finesse design language, a fine balance of ‘Leading-edge’ and ‘finesse’, which ensures every Lexus is not only captivating and luxurious, but also highly refined. Finally, every new Lexus model is also measured against a set of internal standards covering design, performance, specifications and equipment, to ensure it is distinctive and worthy of the Lexus emblem. 63 TA K U M I This pursuit of perfection is evident at every stage of the manufacturing process. Every Lexus vehicle is created with a masterful skill and attention to detail inspired by both traditional artisanship and state-of-the-art engineering. For example, at the Tahara plant in Japan, precision components made using leading-edge digital technology are assembled and finished by master craftsmen called Takumi, whose technical expertise and sure senses are honed by decades of rigorous experience. 64 L E X U S ENVIRONMENT Our commitment to the environment is embedded into all our activities and vehicles.

Our focus on the environment drove our development and global leadership of hybrid luxury vehicles, and the knowledge we have gained is applied in all of our vehicles. Our commitment to recovering, recycling and re-using permeates the entire company. To reduce waste to a minimum, we carefully recycle various materials in our offices, factories, and sales facilities, reducing CO2 levels beyond our achievements on the road. 65 ENVIRONMENT Specific initiatives to enhance the environment include integrating a keen environment-friendly focus on the entire life cycle of each vehicle, from design and production, through to the recycling of vehicles at the end-of-life. To reduce CO2 emissions, at the design stage we specify extensive use of plant-derived plastics for components, instead of petroleum-derived plastics. During production, we make repeated use of reusable items, work hard to efficiently use resources to minimize waste, and recycle any waste produced. 66 EXTERIOR & INTERIOR COLORS The noble elegance of intriguing exterior colors and distinctive trim combinations exude a seductive and glamorous depth befitting ‘The Progressive Luxur y SUV ’.
