Lexus LX

  • The new Lexus LX

    After introducing the new NX in June, Lexus has now promoted a new generation of the larger LX model as well.

    The new Lexus LX is based on the latest Toyota Land Cruiser 300 Series (built on the new GA-F platform, so it weighs up to 200 kg less, has a lower center of gravity and about 10 percent lower CO2 emissions).

    The vehicle is 4985 mm long, the wheelbase is 2850 mm, and the wheels are from 18 to 22 inches.
    With a new exterior design, as well as a more modern interior (12.3 and 7.0-inch screens), the new LX will also offer a long list of safety and driver assistance systems (including adaptive cruise control, automatic braking system, pedestrian and cyclist detection...).

    Under the hood of the LX 600 is a 3.5-liter V6 twin-turbo petrol engine with 305 kW / 415hp and 650 Nm of torque, along with a new 10-speed automatic transmission.

    Among other things, the LX 600 Ultra Luxury variant with two individual rear seats will be offered, as well as the F Sport version with modified suspension, Torsen LSD differential, 22-inch wheels and a honeycomb front grille with a dark chrome frame.

    The new Lexus LX will officially hit the US market from the first quarter of next year.
