Brian Fox takes on the Lexus LS 600h L

Although hybrids are becoming more and more common in our day-to-day lives, it is still not very common to see a tuner interested in one of them, especially in something as large and iconic as a Lexus LS 600h.

On the occasion of the SEMA Show, the American tuner Brian Fox has just unveiled his latest project which, if they wanted to grab attention, they have certainly achieved, since destroying a model as sleek as the LS 600h to show off this beast is not exactly a very logical thing to do.

Among the new details, you will surely notice the new fiberglass aerodynamic kit, in which perhaps the only part that has turned out more or less well is the rear, where they have achieved a more sporty presence without losing the rounded lines that Lexus created for this model.

On the other hand, you will surely also have noticed the huge 20-inch alloy wheels painted red, specifically in Candy Cooper, a color that stands out and perhaps does not match very well with the dark green Glacier Green of the bodywork.

To complete the whole setup, Brian Fox has installed a new air suspension as well as a set of brakes slightly larger than the factory ones. Unfortunately, all the changes have been made to the bodywork of the model, so the cabin has remained as it was, except for some modifications trimmed in the same exterior green.

As for power or mechanical modifications, everything remains the same, so the hybrid system of this model, made up of an electric motor and a 5.0-litre V8 petrol engine, keeps its factory 445 CV.

In my opinion, it is a build that does not do this model any justice at all, although SEMA is SEMA and perhaps this is one of the most restrained modifications that will be presented at this particular event.
