AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/09 Report--

Recently, Lexus officially released a preview chart of the new LX, which shows that the new car uses through taillights, and its overall shape is consistent with the previously released new IS, NX and other models. The tail is marked LX600. It is understood that the new car will be launched on October 14.

From the spy photos of the new Lexus LX road test released earlier, we can see that the vehicle is relatively large, and the new generation of Lexus LX is built on the same TNGA-F platform as the new Rand Cool Luze. The side design is very similar to Toyota's Lande Cool Luze model. In the interior of the net, you can vaguely see the use of banner design, fog lamp area designed vents, the overall body lines are relatively strong. In addition, the test car is also equipped with large-size blackened rims and hidden exhaust.

In terms of power, with reference to the current Lexus LX570 with a 5.7L V8 naturally aspirated engine, according to the trailer of the new LX, the power of the new car may be upgraded, and the possibility that it will carry a 6.0L V8 engine with higher engine displacement cannot be ruled out. However, some media pointed out earlier that the 600 may also refer to a six-cylinder engine, the new Lexus LX and Toyota Landku Luze are based on Toyota TNGA-F platform, and the new Lexus LX may also be equipped with a 3.5L V6 twin-turbocharged engine code-named V35A-FTS, with a power of 305kW and torque of 650Nm, matching a 10-gear automatic transmission. There is no letter "h" on the trailing mark of the vehicle in the trailer picture of this exposure, so it is inferred that the new car will not use a hybrid system.

Earlier, overseas media revealed that the flagship version of the new Lexus LX will have a layout of three rows and six seats, and the second row of seats will also have an armrest control area and seat massage functions. According to the relevant information exposed by overseas forums earlier, in addition to continuing to provide LX570 configuration levels, the new generation of Lexus LX will also launch new LX600 models, and there will be three specific configurations, namely, the entry-level version of 4X4, the sports version of F-SPORT, and the top version of VIP. Of course, the specific information about the new Lexus LX will be officially released on October 14th.

With regard to the competitive Lexus LX, the car can only be sold domestically through parallel imports. With reference to the positioning of Lexus LX570 as a luxury large SUV, it is in the same class with Mercedes-Benz GLS, BMW X7 and other models. However, from its previous domestic announced prices, Lexus LX570 and Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz G-class will form a competitive relationship.
