Overview

The 2021 Lexus LX 570 SUV is a proud member of the full-size SUV segment, locking horns with cars like the Land Rover Range Rover, the Mercedes-Benz GLS 580 SUV, and the Infiniti QX80. Spread across three trims, the LX 570 SUV starts off at a base price of MSRP $88,275 and carries on to $104,318. Its 5.7L V8 engine 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 14 MPG, a poor number for the class, giving its rivals an edge. It also has a ground clearance of 8.9 inches.

Buying Advice

The 2021 Lexus LX 570 SUV is one of the most offroad-ready full-size SUVs you could buy now. It is available in both two-row and three-row configurations. Among these options, the two-row version would be the ideal choice as the third row isn’t spacious enough.
