Index of Lexus LX 570 Reviews
- NewCarTestDrive—On the move, the Lexus LX 570 is smooth, quiet and untroubled. The higher seating position permits long-range forward visibility, keeping occupants and passengers above the flow of ordinary traffic, and eye-ball-to-eyeball with full-size trucks. The commanding view, combined with the lack of noise and vibration, combine to create the sensation of a protected cabin, and a sense of well being.
- Auto123—Great Visbility.All the comforts you might want.Ride and handling are quite good for a vehicle of this size;Very big to Drive.Split tail gate can be annoying to use at times.Third row of seats are a bit tight on space;Running boards do not keep the side clean in bad weather so you get dirty getting in and out.

I use the Sportster 5 and boombox at home (which I love), but I also wanted to have a device ...

This LX 570 replaced a 2005 LX 470 with 100,000 miles. Although the LX 470 was great, no problems, the new 570 truly is a completely new vehicle. The technology, power, features and actually gas mileage has been improved. Highway mileage is as high as 19 mpg at 75 mph w/ac on. The LX 470 topped out at 17 mpg under same circumstances. The 570 will move with the best of the with the larger engine.
Costly to purchase, but you get what you pay for!
Great vehicle!

I have had two LX’s before. they were great quality and, while at the high end, I could justify the price. This one, almost $15,000 higher than last year’s model, is priced such based on new power to pull. Unless you are towing, it is difficult to justify.
