Lexus logo
Toyota paid $35,000 for the name of the brand from an American naming company, because the pronunciation of "Lexus" is similar to the English word "Luxury", which conjures up the impression that the car is a luxury sedan. The Lexus logo is capitalized with the letter "L" of the car name "Lexus", and the "L" is surrounded by an oval on the outside. The ellipse represents the earth, indicating that Lexus cars are all over the world. The new Lexus logo was unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show in January 1988.
