2023 (January to December): Lexus global sales reached a record high of 824,258 units (a 32% increase compared to the previous year).

The ratio of Lexus electrified vehicle sales reached a record high of 47% through the expansion of the electrified vehicle lineup, including the new “RX” and the battery EV exclusive model “RZ.” Additionally, in the Japanese domestic market, strong sales of key models such as NX and RX led to a record high of 94,647 units (a 129% increase compared to 2022).
