Psst – want to know all about Lexus future models and platforms? We’ve got you covered. Our well-researched article this week takes a very comprehensive look and proved as popular with readers as our earlier examination of parent company Toyota’s models. Well worth a read if you have not reached either yet.

Also very popular this week – why motorsport has greater relevance outside the motor industry, and some great post-Brexit investment news (affecting our local region) regarding a new stampings plant supplying UK vehicle manufacturing. There was also some, surprising, growth in UK new car sales in August, typically a ‘slow month’ ahead of 1 September ‘plate change’.

Alliances continue to be announced and, this week, we had news of Navistar and VW Truck and Bus getting together and our own analysis of the deal.

From Our Man in Brazil came news of the local BMW assembly plant’s sixth model in the two years since opening – the X4. We also had news of FCA talking with Samsung over a possible sale of Magneti Marelli.

Have a nice weekend.
