Toyota introduced a new SUV Lexus LX, which, following its fellow Land Cruiser, also lost its V8 engines and received a new generation of V6 biturbo engines. You can choose from a diesel version with a volume of 3.3 liters (300 hp) and a gasoline version of 3.4 liters with a return of 415 hp. Both versions have a ten-speed automatic transmission.
The new Lexus LX has a lot in common with the Land Cruiser: the frame, transmission and the old wheelbase of 2850 mm. The maximum wheel diameter is now 22 inches, and the weight of the frame with the body, like that of the “Kruzak”, has decreased by 200 kg. However, the Lexus LX has its own design for the front and rear windows, and the body shape is slightly changed. The interior of the car is also different. There are two screens inside: the upper one by 12.3 inches (media system, navigator and car settings) and the lower one by 7 inches (climate control and driving modes). The buttons on the center console are analog, the instruments are digital. Also installed is a Mark Levinson audio system with 25 speakers.
The new Lexus LX has LED headlights with BladeScan AHS adaptive control, adaptive dampers at the rear and front, adjustable hydraulic suspension, all-round cameras, standard fingerprint start system and a sunroof. Separate climate control, heated and ventilated seats are available for rear passengers. The petrol version has a third row, which will then be added to diesel cars.
The most top-of-the-line equipment is the VIP version with a four-seater saloon, which has two separate seats with individual adjustments and a retractable footrest at the right passenger, a touchscreen display in the center armrest, media system screens, additional air ducts and lighting on the ceiling.
Production of the new Lexus LX for the Russian market is scheduled to begin in December. The car is expected on sale in February next year.
