2020 Lexus LX 570 4WD Automatic Sport Utility

Model Highlights

Lexus has kept things simple with the LX 570. There is just one trim level, but it comes extremely well-equipped. Extensive standard features are the name of the game with the LX 570. 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 LX 570s come with V8 power and full-time 4-wheel drive. Lexus offers a couple option packages for those wanting even more. An aptly named "Luxury Package" includes a heated steering wheel and heated second row seats. Front seats are fully climate-controlled with perforated high-quality leather. A refrigerated cool box has been installed in the center console and a parking assist program has also been added. The Luxury Package also addresses in-car entertainment, swapping the stock stereo for a 19-speaker Mark Levinson unit and adding a couple of screens in the headrests to entertain rear seat passengers. The "Luxury package with pre-collision system" is just that. Everything included in the above-mentioned Luxury package is included, along with Lexus' pre-collision system, adaptive cruise control and a set of unique 20-inch wheels. The LX 570 is powered by a 5.7L V8 engine producing an impressive 383 horsepower. More importantly though, the LX 570 makes 90 percent of peak torque at just 2,200 rpm, great for towing or for off-roading. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission and transfer case. Utilizing a Torsion limited-slip differential, the LX 570 ensures that power is sent to whichever wheels have the most grip. The LX 570 is equipped with ten airbags, traction control, anti-lock brakes and stability control. The side curtain airbags can sense an impending rollover and cover all three rows potentially protecting a full load of eight occupants. Also aiding safety are the Active Front Headrests, which are designed to move upward and forward during rear-end collisions to minimize the chance of spinal injury. Owners who opt for the pre-collision system will also get front and side wide angle cameras to assist in the prevention of minor fender benders while parking. The pre-collision system works by using radar detect an incoming collision and automatically apply the brakes in order to minimize the speed of impact.
