Overview

The 2017 Lexus LX 570 is a proud member of the fullsize SUV segment, locking horns with cars like the Cadillac Escalade, the Toyota Land Cruiser, and the INFINITI QX80. Spread across 2 trims, the LX 570 starts off at a base price of MSRP $85,630 and carries on to $90,630. Its 5.7L V8 and an 8-speed automatic transmission give the SUV 383 horsepower and 403 lb-ft of torque. With that, it manages a 0-60 of 7.2 seconds and boasts a towing capacity of 7,000 pounds. Moving to fuel economy, the LX 570 manages to get a combined EPA rating of 15 MPG, which is below average for the class, with most of its rivals reaching slightly higher numbers. It also has a ground clearance of 8.9 inches.

We'd go with the Three-row trim level when shopping for a 2018 Lexus LX 570 SUV. This trim level offers better interior space than the two-row trim level, but not only that, it also offers access to packages not found in the two-row trim.
