Lexus LM 350h Bookings Reopen in India After 8 Months

Lexus India has officially resumed bookings for the LM 350h, the brand’s ultra-luxurious MPV, after an eight-month pause. Initially launched in March 2024, the LM 350h made a strong impression in the premium MPV segment. However, in September 2024, Lexus temporarily suspended new bookings due to ongoing supply chain challenges and a growing backlog of orders.

With production and supply now stabilizing, interested buyers can once again place orders for the LM 350h either through the official Lexus India website or by visiting authorized Lexus dealerships across the country.
