The Lexus LF-1 Limitless Concept is putting on a light display just in time for the holidays.

Set to make its debut at the 2018 Detroit Auto Show early next year, the Lexus LF-1 Limitless Concept will serve as a flagship crossover for the Japanese luxury automaker. Little is known about the concept, but Lexus did previously tease the design of its rear. The blue emblems suggest the concept will be electrified and the front end is surprisingly influenced by the Toyota Mirai, a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle.

Earlier, Lexus said the concept will reflect “the next genre in luxury crossover vehicles,” and that it is created by its CALTY design studio in Southern California. For the past few years, Lexus has been focusing on the sporty RC and LC models, and is now switching gears to bolster its crossover and SUV lineup. Recently at the 2017 L.A. Auto Show, Lexus rolled out the three-row RX, a model that has been in demand and rumored for quite some time.
