Matt Harrison acknowledged that Lexus was unable to keep up with growing demand for the new NX due to a shortage of electronic components. The waiting time for the crossover is 12 months. The thing is that the NX turned out to have many unique components, and Toyota might not rearrange the missing parts from more affordable models.
Lexus looks to 2023 with optimism, but top managers refused to give a sales forecast. The key task for the next year is to ensure the supply of cars. “This is even more important than our sales numbers,” said Pascal Ruch, head of business planning at Lexus Europe.
