Sunrise to sunrise – with Elsa Bleda and the Lexus UX self-charging Hybrid SUV. New Horizons with the self-charging hybrid.

Lexus UK boss Ewan Shepherd said: "The UX is a very significant launch for us in the premium SUV segment, delivering a great driving performance with a distinctive design. We wanted to make an impact with this ad and urban explorer, Elsa Bleda, was the perfect choice to deliver this with her distinct and memorable photography which perfectly captures the spirit of adventure while driving the UX."

Dave Bedwood, The&Partnership, executive creative director said : "The new Lexus UX was designed for people who live in the city and who love discovering new ideas and places. Elsa Bleda is a photographer that embodies this spirit; it’s clear that she sees the world differently, always searching for a new horizon. Through selecting her as our protagonist, we take the audience through a journey of discovery; never quite knowing what she’s looking for, but experiencing a place, a person, a moment with her"
