Lexus has dropped another teaser image of its upcoming TX model, a U.S.-built SUV aiming to compete with three-row German heavyweights. This time, we get a better look at the front end of the TX that boasts a new interpretation of the spindle grille.

Previously, Lexus has given us a glimpse of the interior, showcasing a three-row seating arrangement in what appears to be a 2+2+2 layout, as well as the distinctive Lexus-style door panel cards and a portion of the dashboard. The company also confirmed that the official reveal will take place on June 8. (Updated 6/6).

We first wrote about the TX in April 2022, but Lexus didn’t officially acknowledge the project at that time. Fast forward a year and Lexus has confirmed the TX name and given us a little look at the car that will bear that badge.

The exterior profile image is tightly cropped on the rear half of the new SUV and shows only the rear door and C-pillar. There’s enough detail contained in the picture to confirm that the TX will be twinned with Toyota’s new Grand Highlander, as early reports suggested, but it also shows that the Toyota-to-Lexus conversion will involved more than swapping the badges out and adding some extra leather.

Although the rear door and door handle looks the same on both cars, the rear quarter window opening is slightly different on the TX and the Lexus SUV’s rear lights wrap further around the corner, cutting more deeply into the quarter panel.

Lexus hasn’t released any details about the technical makeup of the TX. However, to help us fill in the powertrain blanks, we can look at what’s under the hood of the 201.4-inch long (5,116 mm) Grand Highlander.

Toyota offers three powertrain options: a 265 hp (269 PS) turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and a 245 hp (248 PS) 2.5-liter four-cylinder hybrid available with either front- or all-wheel drive, and a 362 hp (367 PS) 2.4-liter turbo’d four banger that’s lifted from the Lexus RX and comes exclusively with all-wheel drive.

Unlike Lexus GX and the even bigger LX, which both feature traditional body-on-frame construction, the TX is a unibody SUV that uses Toyota’s TNGA-K platform, something that should give it a better chance of matching the driving dynamics of other unibody 3-row offerings like the BMW X5 and X7.
