Lexus Europe had much to celebrate when its Q1 sales were announced. The brand has achieved its best Q1 sales result ever! Lexus Europe saw its sales increase 37% when compared to the same period last year for a total of 15,800 units.

There were two major factors in Lexus Europe's sales growth. The first is a substantial increase in Lexus hybrid sales. Lexus hybrid sales increased 40% in Q1 to 10,600 units. This confirms the growing demand for hybrid technology in Europe. Lexus Hybrid Drive represents 67% of total Lexus sales further showing that hybrid technology is on the rise.

The other thing that contributed massively to Lexus Europe's success was the Lexus NX. The NX sold 6,500 units in Q1. That number represents 40% of Lexus sales for the period.

Karl Schlicht, executive vice-president of Toyota Motor Europe said, "Lexus delivered an impressive year on year growth thanks to strong demand for our more recent models, and better availability."

These sales results put Lexus on track to reach its goal of selling 60,000 units this year. And to think, its almost half thanks to the NX. :D
