Lexus is bored of being the car your dentist’s plastic surgeon’s golf coach drives. So it’s gone properly bonkers.

Not content with reinventing the LS as a six-wheeler sanctuary of van-based calm, Lexus decided it was a bit big. Especially for Japan’s cramped and congested cities.

'Perhaps,' it pondered, 'we should also create a last-mile vehicle for getting stressed rich types to their destination in something small and wieldy.'

Enter this giant art-deco lighter: the Micro LS Concept. It’s a single-seater self-driving three-wheeler. And the idea is you clamber into this for the last little stint of your urban trip, and let AI take the wheel.

Inside you get bespoke glassware, a reclining chair and the windows are slatted to promote privacy. Range? Price? Top speed? All unknowns. Because this isn’t a car, it’s an idea. It’s a mood board for Lexus, figuring out what might be the must-have luxury product of 2050 and beyond.

We reckon it salutes the Peel P50 – the Top Gear hero car which was so light and small you could carry it to work like a suitcase. The Lexus looks a tad too heavy for that. But we’re very on board with the new Lexus ‘we’ve gone mad’ era.
