Model Review

Lexus has kept things simple with the LX570. There is really only one trim level and it comes extremely well equipped. Standard features are the name of the game with this vehicle. Four- zone automatic climate control, an electronic moonroof, power tailgate closer, electronically height adjustable suspension, a wood and leather trimmed interior, a 14 way power adjustable driver's seat, a navigation system, Sirius XM radio and a 9-speaker sound system are just some of the highlights on a very long list of standard equipment. All LX570s come with V8 power and full time 4-wheel drive. This means that even in its most basic form, the LX570 is a seriously nice vehicle.
