Lexus is gearing up to reveal their most popular selling and crucial model to their lineup: the ever so ubiquitous RX crossover.

The crossover will be entering its four generation when it debuts on April 1st in New York.

Not much is know, but don’t expect much change under the skin since this is Lexus’ most popular selling model–this sort of group is fairly resistant to change. That means the typical use of Toyota’s 3.5L naturally-aspirated V6 with 270hp with a new eight-speed automatic.

Styling however is expected to be modeled after the Japanese-version of the RX, which is called a Toyota Harrier.

Check out the press brief and teaser below.
