Is Lexus about to show off a six-wheeled minivan?

Lexus. Manufacturer of sensible, extremely reliable and worthy automotive fare, shot through with the occasional foray into outright lunacy courtesy of V8 and V10-engined heroes.

Now, it appears Lexus is also looking to become a manufacturer of six-wheeled minivans, and our day has been immeasurably brightened. Hopefully yours too.

Six wheels! On a Japanese family transportation device! Lexus has not released any actual information about its minivan concept, other than this single image that clearly depicts a set of big wheels on the front axle, and two sets of slightly smaller wheels on the rear.

All of them look like they’re fuelled by some sort of nuclear fission – they’re literally glowing, might make fill-ups tricky – while the shape features Lexus’s fascination with slashed, angular bodywork as evidenced by the production-spec LM.

Also, there are some headlights and some taillights, which will come in handy. More as we get it.
