With a comfortable ride and a wealth of versatility. The Lexus LX has been seen as a hallmark of luxury SUVs since its launch in 1995. As of August 2021, the Lexus LX series is sold in more than 50 countries around the world, with cumulative sales of more than 500,000 units.
In mid-October of this year, Lexus officially released the new Lexus LX600, when it was predicted that the new car would be the first to be sold in the United States in the first quarter of 2022. However, according to relevant news, the first batch of Lexus' new LX 600 models are about to arrive in Tianjin Port, and new cars have also been booked.
As a full-size luxury SUV, the new car is based on the new GA-F platform, with a redesigned exterior and interior.
The new exterior further optimises the body proportions on top of the new Lexus NX, the front face design becomes more aggressive, the grille becomes larger in size, and is complemented by transverse silver chrome trims. The new headlights are still composed of polyline-shaped LED daytime running lights and three LED light sources.
The side of the new car adopts a relatively simple, smooth line design, and the wheels use 22-inch forged aluminum wheels. A hidden exhaust layout was used at the rear of the car, and a set of through-line LED taillights similar to that of the NX model was selected above the tailgate.
Inside, the new car adopts a symmetrical center console design, continues to provide configurations such as LCD meters and HUD head-up displays, and for the first time adds dual-screen displays, which consist of a 12.3-inch upper screen and a 7-inch lower screen. In addition, the vehicle start button is set on the side of the central control screen and for the first time equipped with fingerprint recognition.
In terms of seat layout, the traditional 7-seater version will continue to be available, and the second row passengers will still have access to a rear entertainment system with a large screen. In addition, the new car is available in a variety of interior leathers as well as wood grain panels.
In terms of power, the Lexus LX600 is equipped with a 3.5T V6 twin-turbo petrol engine (V35A-FTS engine), which is smaller than the upcoming naturally aspirated V8 engine, with a maximum output of 415 horsepower and a peak torque of up to 650 Nm, which not only has better power output when driving on the road, but also makes it easier to maneuver when driving off-road.
The drivetrain is matched with the Direct Shift-10AT transmission, which has a tighter gear ratio, faster gear changes, and can provide better driving force when starting at low speeds, while controlling the speed at a lower range at high speeds, driving quieter and consuming less fuel.
At present, there is no news about the pricing of the car, but according to the previous 19 Lexus LX570 (price: 129.10-141.70 million yuan) has long been increased by hundreds of thousands of sales, it is predicted that the price of LX600 will go to 2 million yuan, or even higher!
