Our Wise-Ass Commentary of the New Lexus Concept Video

(A photo gallery of Lexus’ new, electric LF-30 concept is here.)

Part of my job is to post news of design concepts. And while I’ll play ball and show you the video, I also can’t help subconsciously captioning various scenes.

Here’s Lexus’ promo video of the LF 30:

And some thoughts that occurred to me while watching it:

“Since I have to draw the brand’s logo on the mirror every time we want to summon the car, I’m glad we didn’t get a Subaru.”

“We had to get rid of Puddles because he kept attacking the luggage drone.”

“Jesus, Sharon–are you using Tinder right in front of me? That’s so disrespectful.”

“Here’s my impression of every religious basketball player after they score the game-winning shot.”

“I like the autonomous driving part…”

“…until the conversation gets dull. Then I grab the wheel and pretend to be concentrating on the road.”

“Best thing about the future: Zero traffic, even in the middle of the day in a bustling metropolis.”

“There’s also no pedestrians, thanks to that zombie apocalypse.”

“Hey, that car in front of us has something stuck to the bumper. Should I alert them?” –“No, honey, I think that’s part of the design.”

“Here we are, at the Lexus Secret Escape. Out back there’s an area where you can crush Mercedeses with a hydraulic press and push the crumpled forms into a ravine.”

“Hey Gisele, I just thought of something…”

“…Why are there four of us, but only Dylan and Sharon got to bring a suitcase? Are you and I not allowed to stay overnight?”
