- Lexus will reveal the new LX luxury SUV on Wednesday, October 13, at 12:30 p.m. ET.
- It’s the more upscale version of the new 300-series Land Cruiser, which won’t be sold in the U.S. Lexus has confirmed to Car and Driver that the LX600 will be sold here.
- The new LX is expected to use the same 409-hp twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V-6 that powers the global Land Cruiser.
Toyota won’t sell the new 300-series Land Cruiser in the United States, likely because previous versions didn’t sell well here. However, we will be getting the new model in the form of a more luxurious Lexus, the luxury brand has confirmed to Car and Driver. The LX600 will be revealed on Wednesday, October 13, at 12:30 p.m. ET.
It’s likely that the LX600 will replace the current LX570 model’s 5.7-liter V-8 engine with the new twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V-6 that’s found in the global version of the Land Cruiser and the new Toyota Tundra full-size pickup. In the Land Cruiser it makes 409 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque, and a hybrid version could arrive later. It will use a 10-speed automatic transmission and have standard four-wheel drive.
A teaser image from earlier this year (above) revealed similar L-shaped headlights and the famous Lexus spindle grille, but this new image shows the SUV will have a similar boxy shape as the Land Cruiser—at least in the rear. Unlike the Toyota, however, its taillights are connected by a light bar, and the rear window is slightly more canted forward.
Check back here for all the details on the 2022 Lexus LX600 next week. We’ll update this post with a link to the live reveal when one becomes available. The new LX should go on sale early next year starting at around $90,000.
