A photo of the Lexus UX Concept has hit the internet a few weeks before the vehicle will be officially unveiled at the 2016 Paris Motor Show.

This new UX Concept is teasing a crossover that will be smaller than the NX and likely based on the new Toyota C-HR. Designed by Lexus’ European design center, the concept shows off angular lines and large wheel arches.

Though no details were released, one feature that is clearly on display is the camera setup which replaces both of the side mirrors. These cameras will project what they capture onto a screen inside the car, effectively replacing the mirrors.

Lexus has already filed for trademarks on UX 250 and UX 250h, suggesting that the brand will be moving forward with production plans for the subcompact crossover.

Watch for the UX Concept to make its official debut at the Paris Motor Show at the end of September.

    maybe they should just rebadge a Mazda CX-3 instead of developing it for decades like the Supra
