The only SUV that matters
db, 10/08/2017
2017 Lexus LX 570 4dr SUV 4WD (5.7L 8cyl 8A)
I have a 2017 LX 570 and this is my third LX dating back to 2002. My previous vehicle was a 2006 LX; I absolutely love the upgrades both internally and externally. I would not comment on the mpg as a negative--especially considering this is a full-time four-wheeled drive vehicle that weighs over 7,000 lbs--poor mpg is to be expected. I considered purchasing a Mercedes G Wagon or a … Range Rover Autobiography...regardless of the curb appeal for those vehicles, none can compare to the LX's reliability and resale value. Having an attractive SUV that only looks good but cannot withstand the test of time (unreliable) is an oxymoron. I look forward to additional LX upgrades in time. The only SUV that matters.

2020 Lexus LX 570 Two-Row 4dr SUV 4WD (5.7L 8cyl 8A)
I am one of the rare luxury SUV owners that occasionally uses the vehicle in true off-road conditions while on my gentlemen's hunting trips. The LX is luxuriously beautiful both inside and out, which pleases my wife, but also has plenty of room for my dog and equipment. It readily goes where I need it to go. It has a locking differential to put it in "mountain goat" mode. which is … more and more difficult to find on large luxury SUVs. Mercedes GLS doesnt have it; Even Range Rover no longer offers a locking differential unless you opt for one of the higher end trims with a bigger engine... (that was my second choice of vehicle.) The LX has plenty of power and mass to tow my boat. And, it has Lexus reliability too. Happy! -----UPDATE AFTER THREE YEARS OF OWNERSHIP----- Everything I wrote above in my initial review still holds. As expected. the reliability of the LX has been perfect. Absolutely no problems. My only trips to the dealer have been for regularly scheduled maintenance. I previously had a GX 460, which gave me six years of perfect reliability. So, that's a total of nine years of perfection in the reliability area... Thanks, Lexus! So after this time, what else do I like? My two-row version gives me a cavernous fully coverable cargo space behind the second row. I have no use for a third row and am so glad I had the option for a well-appointed two-row version. What don't I like? The mandatory "optional" 21-inch wheels and tire size are stupid. The odd size yields very limited tire-replacement options. (Update... Michelin recently came out with an excellent replacement tire in the size I need... Defender LTX... which is what I bought) I also think the wheels and tires are not matched well to the vehicle's suspension as it had a tendency to wander on the highway, requiring regular minor adjustments in steering. The tires and wheels are the only issue that I find annoying. Otherwise it continues to be a very good, reliable vehicle for my needs. Still very happy after four years. ------UPDATE AFTER FIVE AND A HALF YEARS OF OWNERSHIP----- All of the above still holds true. My 2020 Lexus LX 570, with the two-row only option, has been perfectly reliable and perfectly functional in all this time. Not one malfunction or flaw in any way... nothing, nada, zilch. It just works. It has been a nearly perfect vehicle for my needs. I am considering trading it on a new vehicle early next year, for no other reason than it will be time for something new after six years. I will consider a new Lexus LX 700h. But one disadvantage I see is that there is not a 'two-row only' option offered on the "Luxury" trim level like I have on my current LX 570. Even though there is a two row option offered on other trim levels, I don't care for them as much as the "Luxury" trim level. From pictures it appears that the third row stays partially elevated when folded on the new LX 700h, intruding on cargo space. That's an unfortunate negative and may force me to look elsewhere for my next SUV. Elimination of the split tailgate is also a negative on the new LX700h. But, if Lexus can satisfactorily address those issues on the new LX 700h I would be highly inclined to purchase another Lexus LX. ------- Update after six full years of ownership..... STILL PERFECT. Everything I wrote above still holds. I am in the middle of buying a replacement vehicle, simply because it's time after six years. I would have bought another Lexus LX in a heartbeat. But, the unfortunate thing is that the new LX 700h won't work for my needs. Lexus did stupid things by creating an intrusive hump in the cargo area and by forcing a mandatory third row in the "Luxury" trim level. It leaves very little usable cargo area. There is an off-road version that offers two rows only, but I don't care for the mandatory "adventure-boy" looks at all...maybe if I was still in my 30s. But in my 30s, I couldn't afford a $120k vehicle. So, I'm looking at BMW X7 M60 or Mercedes GLS 580 as a replacement.
Best Large Luxury SUV Sold!

2016 Lexus LX 570 4dr SUV 4WD (5.7L 8cyl 8A)
If you're looking to purchase a strong, reliable, luxurious large SUV, the LX 570 is truly the BEST choice available. This is my third Lexus vehicle. I've owned the 2016 LX for a few months, and it is truly confidence inspiring. It feels strong and solid, without sacrificing luxury and comfort. It feels as though it was built to go the ends of the Earth and, more importantly, MAKE IT … BACK unscathed!
Great Rig

2019 Lexus LX 570 Three-Row 4dr SUV 4WD (5.7L 8cyl 8A)
I own a 2019 LX 570 with all the options except the cooler and rear entertainment system. My previous vehicle was a 2017 Platinum Tundra with a leveling kit and custom wheels/tires and a bunch of ad on's. I'm use to driving larger vehicles. I could see the LX 570 being an intimidating vehicle if you are not accustomed to driving a truck or larger SUV. I don't have any serious … complaints about the vehicle. However, I do have a few points of criticism. First, the infotainment system "mouse" is just down right stupid. We live a time where touch screen gesture rich interfaces are a maintstay. Lexus should take not of that fact and consider how to integrate that kind of a platform into the vehicles. Second, for me, the 21 inch wheels and 285/50/R21 wheels are just ridiculous. You can't get very many replacements wheels for the rims, and with all this offroad capability, you throw it out the window with this setup. I replaced the stock wheels with 275/55/R20's rims with offroad tires. This required removing the small front wheel well mudflaps and make a small adjustment to the wheel well plastic to avoid rubbing issues. The vehicle looks(to me) a lot better and has more utility for luxurious outdoor adventures(though the approach angle is still far inferior to the Land Cruiser). Lastly, braking is a bit touchy. There is a point at which the brakes appear to feel underengaging, then rapidly overengage with slightly more pressure. This took some getting use to to avoid stopping faster than I'd like. Maybe it's just related to how little wear the vehicle currently has on the brake pads, etc. All in all, I would highly recommend this, but would advise you to avoid going with the 21inch wheels stock. You have a lot more options with the 20 inch wheels if utility and use, vs around town driving will play an element in your ownership of this vehicle.
