What is the difference between Lexus and Toyota if they are the same?

I could not find any difference between Lexus and Toyota besides the logo. Everything is similar just one called Lexus other Toyota.

Not really much. One is just more luxury. Lexus is just a glorified Toyota while a Acura is just a glorified Honda.

That’s pretty much it! They are made by the same company but you have to pay more for the Lexus logo. And Lexus probably offers better upgrades/options.

The platform is same, but that’s about it. Same as Firebird/Camaro
Avalanche/Escalade

Why, the Price of course!!!
That is the only difference, both come down the same factory assembly line, and its only the marketing department at the mother company, TOYOTA, that has people thinking these cars are different. Its the same thing with Nissan and Infiniti or Honda and Acura. a marketing ploy for people to spend more on a car thats not worth it.

Yes but this is true for most car makers.
1. They have the luxury line.
They add a few things internal and external to make them somewhat different. You are also buying the name.
2. They have the cheap line.
Same engine, same body type, just different grill, lights, egnition key, little upgrades.
When it comes to gas purchasing, they are both the same.
Lincoln = Luxury
Ford = Cheaper car.

About the same as Ford and Mercury. Just another branch with different trim levels.

Lexus is the luxury car built by Toyota.Just like Cadillac is the
luxury car for General Motors and Lincoln being the luxury car
for Ford Motor Company,etc.Hence the reason why it all looks
the same.(Toyota Lexus)

Lexus is manufactured by Toyota just as Scion is as well. Some Lexus models are similar to its Toyota counterparts like the LX470 is to the Landcruiser. But other models do not have a toyota counterpart. These cars are manufactured to those that want the reliability of a toyota, but also want to pay a little more for the name and or extra luxury features they come with. As with a Scion you get the reliability of a Toyota at an even more affordable of a cost due to the cars being manufactured with not so many extras and getting a little retro of a look that is focused towards the younger generation that might not be too keen on driving the same commuter car as Dad would. Hope this helps. So its a personal preference on which one you get if you are debating on a vehicle that is badged toyota or lexus. If you like the look of the lexus badging go for it, if not don’t. It will also decide what dealership you want to go to for service. Hope this helps.
