Think of it as a Land Cruiser if the land you are cruising is the country club. ​Brian Cooley test drives the 2014 LX 570 and checks the tech.

Two things: 1:) You don't have to manually drop the 3rd row headrests. The back release button will also release the headrests. 2.) The suspension is hydraulic, not pneumatic.

I agree and it would elevate the LX line (and sales) but I don't know if Lexus/Toyota will put in the R and D for such substantial improvements. They have a tendency to observe the trend and build on reliability then to push limits and lead in the automotive trend. They also need to add some of form force induction to keep the 5.7 competitive. If they go all out with the next LX570 it will send the Range Rovers and Mercedes GLs back to the drawing boards. That will be a good thing. - I have a 5.7 Tundra btw.

my friend has one of these as his first car at 16. it was a hand me down after his mom got a new GLS and it’s a sweet first car for him to drive our friend group around in. i still enjoy my ML350 a little more; just don’t love how upright the dash is in these LXs. The back seats are also surprisingly uncomfortable.

@@Alex-kt6hx the 2nd row was mainly what i was referring to, but both suck. the 2nd row is very upright and the seats aren’t very well padded, which is odd for Lexus. the third row seats seemed like an afterthought, awkwardly folding away and sitting mere inches off the floor, leading to your knees ending up in your face. they’re no good for anyone over like 5’ 2”. much worse than the third row seats in my 2017 GLS550.

Or I'd just get a Land Rover or Escalade, as those those are somewhat well established models in luxury full size SUV segment compare to this one.

If your going to spend 90k on a luxury/off-road suv, I think you'll be better off getting a range rover sport. in my opinion the rover looks better, will be just as good if not better off road, has the incredible jaguar supercharged v8, a lovely interior, and is seriously quick for a 5000+ pound machine. But then again I don't have 90k to blow on a suv.

Except it's not. It's funny how people who know nothing about vehicles tend to have a very swaying opinion. 2 very different chassis, suspensions and build quality. Even the Sequoia is only 80% Tundra. Can you say an F150 is practically a Mustang with a bed because they share the same engine albeit a different tuning? No. RangeRovers use Jaguar engines, GM's pushrod V8s are practically the same in design no matter what vehicle they're going in and a lot of everyone else's V6s and 4 bangers all are the same. So your "honesty" is as honest as the tooth fairy.

Just because other manufacturers put out tons more hp compared to this Lexus doesn't mean is inadequate. I guarantee you this is a well balanced vehicle throughout rather than built for useless 5-600hp suv's.

Or they can "keep it simple, stupid" because the LX/LC doesn't need a bad rep from failing technology. This is why the Japanese have a huge reliability track record. While the other auto makers seem to dive into new tech in hopes of swaying people to buy the latest and shiniest thing on the market, the Japanese make incremental improvements to existing technology in the favor for the enduser. Take Toyota's first in the market 8 speed auto tranny. Nobody thought it was cool but now that everyone has it and Toyota isn't implementing it into their trucks, everyone knocks Toyota for not upping their gears and being competitive. Toyota build extremely reliable and durable trucks so just throwing stuff to make it competitive isn't their way of doing things. There's a reason why you see LXs and LCs with very high mileage with nothing more than standard maintenance. The first DOHC in a truck was done by Toyota in 1998. It took over a decade for them to do this because they were testing the tech on a passenger car to make sure it can meet durability and reliability standards. People laughed at the thought of a 32 valve V8 in the truck but fast forward today and everyone except GM has a 32 valve DOHC V8 truck. Direct injection is a pretty noisy and complex system so I'd imagine that Toyota doesn't really want that in a truck motor. Im pretty sure when that method of fuel deliver matures some more, it may make it into the truck market. Aluminum will not be used for structure because this is a world class vehicle. Repairing aluminum isn't something you can do in the outback, the sahara or the Serengeti. You have to keep that in mind because I'm pretty sure Toyota has these as a top priority.

CACressida they would put the full driver assistence in and also with reliablity. Japanese cars are always reliable so it probably would still be reliable. Japan made the car! Asians made it so they would be smart enough to make it safe and more advanced and reliable. Germans are just not smart as asians. And germans dont know how to design interiors. Especially mb and bmw
