Lexus aims to be a luxury lifestyle brand and the flagship luxury yacht is the embodiment of the Lexus design philosophy "Crafted."
The concept for the luxury yacht is "to feel like a hideout in the middle of the sea, providing a space where discerning customers can feel free and at ease."
The LY 680 exterior embodies the Lexus design philosophy of L-finesse, and the interior has been crafted to provide a comfortable living space. In terms of performance, Lexus aims for confidence inspiring cruising performance, offering stable maneuverability, excellent ride comfort, and quietness.
The LY 650 was introduced in 2019. It had a composite hull and was powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS engines.
The LY 680 is still very much the same as the LY 650 except for a few updates.
The flybridge has been extended by 1,400 mm and features a spacious lounge sofa and a barbecue grill, allowing guests to relax and enjoy the fresh ocean breeze.
In addition, the swimming platform has been extended by 700 mm platform, which allows you to enjoy a wide range of offshore activities, including personal watercrafts.
Production was carried out by the Taiwan-based Horizon Group, which has a reputation for its advanced technological capabilities that have been honed through the construction of superyachts.
A 1/20 scale model of the LY 680 will be on display at the Japan International Boat Show 2024 which is being held at Pacifico Yokohama from March 21-24.
Order-taking has begun and they are accepted only in Japan through Toyota Marine sales offices and other select dealers.
Delivery is scheduled for the spring of 2026. Sales in additional overseas markets will be considered in the future based on customer demand.
