2008 2009 Lexus LX 570. The phrase conspicuous consumption was made for vehicles like the Lexus LX 570. This hulking, eight-passenger SUV takes up a sizeable chunk of the roadway and its fuel economy numbers top out in the high-teens. It also offers all the luxury and style expected of a Lexus, making the LX570 an obvious choice for well-to-do buyers who need a large SUV or just believe that bigger really is better.
The Lexus LX 570 competes with such luxury-SUV luminaries as the Cadillac Escalade, Audi Q7 and Land Rover Range Rover. Lexus hopes its rugged capabilities, luxury amenities and swanky style make the LX570 a success in the ever-shrinking SUV market.

This is one of the worlds TRUE great SUVS.
A silky 5.7 v8, a beautifully constructed interior, and an understated exterior appearance that exudes prestige.
If i were to buy a large SUV, this would definitely be it.
I would get one with a pearl white exterior and light beige interior.

i own one :) it is so amazing. i have the 2010 version and its silver. the interior is comfortable. the seats feel so soft and the v8 engine just rips up the road.the cameras on the sides and the sensors on each side help when parking.if u need a good 80k car just buy this car and u will know u made the right decision :D
Gjergj ruks your first like took 8 years to happen haha
@@rigobertogarza7945 his fourth like took a decade
@@karmveer240 hahaha 😅
@@rigobertogarza7945I came in clutch with the 6th like 3 years after yours. Wonder if they still even have this SUV and how reliable it's been lol.
Ok, the Q7 is a mid-size SUV, the LX is FULL-size SUV. The Q7 compete with the X5, FX, JX, ML, MKT, MDX, etc. The LX compete with the Escalade, Navi, QX,G class etc.
I can't believe this reviewer actually dared to say this vehicle was in the same class as a Escalade, seriously, the Escalade is more like a minvan. Matter of fact I would choice the Honda Minivan over the Escalade any day of the week.
There are no comparisons to this SUV. Not even the Rang rover. No other vehicle can handle the amount of abuse, performance, luxary, resell price, and reliability this SUV offers. Everything else is a copy.

i acknowledge that lexus should have done something that makes the exterior stand out from the landcruiser but i think it still looks amazing. the interior is such a step up from our LX470 which is already hugely impressive. great work to lexus once again. elegant looking design, rugged qualities yet still a smooth and comfortable ride without compromising driving experience. the variable gear ratio system is a godsend. it makes driving the LX even smoother than some of lexus' low end sedans.
i think lxus is an awesome car even though i like german cars
temperature indicator. Optional features include remote engine start, DVD entertainment system, premium sound system, adaptive cruise control, and cooled front seats. Competitors include the Cadillac Escalade Platinum, Range Rover, and Mercedes-Benz GL550.
It's toyota they own the three most reliable companies Scion, Lexus, and Toyota are top 3 most reliable vehicles on the market.
Eric Powell lol RIP scion
so smooth that if you're doing 120 Mph , you wont know if the car is on or off ;)
I want to see more reviews hosted by this lady. Wondering if she still works there...
A colleague of mine has this car. It's amazing. Much better than bimmer x5, maybe because it's much bigger. It makes make wanna trade in my new sports sedan for a huge SUV.
Standard features include air conditioning w/4-zone climate controls, interior air filter, power tilt/telescopic wood/leather-wrapped steering wheel w/radio controls, cruise control, leather upholstery, heated front seats, 14-way power driver seat, 12-way power passenger seat, memory system, keyless start, power sunroof, navigation system w/voice recognition, rearview camera, 6-disc CD changer, universal garage door opener, power liftgate, and outside-temperature indicator.
It's all great, but my family gets 11.5 average mpg in this thing! That's sooo bad!

what are the main differences between this and
the LC v8?
and the price difference?
same here , i owned a 02 sequoia , it was totalled , so i got the 06 limited sequoia , only cause i can not afford the land cruiser or the 570. but if i had the money i think i would own 2 of them. i had the 02 for 4 and a half years, and its never been in the shop , just changed the oil and i had a set of tires put on it. it had 106000 miles on it . you cant say that about these other cars in toyotas class
the best car i have ever owned its great, smooth and looks great. but it cost a lot i got it with all the upgrades for about $79,000
i dont know why people like the escalade but the exterior is not only ugly, but it looks funny and cheap. The interior is made of cheap plastic, and cheap leather. the LX should not compare to the Escalade because it is way out of the LX range. The lx looks great inside and out.
OrlandoMagicFan1011 I yeah Go Magic! I,m 100% agree with you the Escalade is nothing but a Chevy Tahoe with a Cadillac badge. Lexus LX570 is Toyota made is one of the best if not the best vehicle ever made
I bet this thing won't stop at the time you need to most.
are the brakes bad or something?
@Polynesian576 Isnt this the sister vehicle to the Toyota truck where the gas tank brackets were rusting causing the gas tanks to fallout??
i just got a 2009...its a awesome suv but they lie about the mpg i get about 13mpg but i will never give this car up
What's the difference between lx570 and gx470
why do you compare it with Q7? Range Rover, Mercedes GL and Lexus LX - there is no other SUV to compare with.
Best car in it's class
yes, i know that Lexus is owned by Toyota but my point is why not separate both stylings if your offering the consumer a better and luxurious car. But i understand where your coming from, their styling will always resemble the Toyota to a Lexus, a Honda to an Acura and so forth.
i agree, ive driven an older one. and i must say , if felt like i was driving a LS
Precisely.
The Land Cruiser is a full-size luxury SUV, do God the $65,000 price tag, but the LX570 has just a few more standard features, and I think more power.
Same engine and same power, comment from 14 years ago.
A Land Cruiser sent to Lexus camp.
Nice review...
Thx so much for uploader..
I wouldn't even choose this over the Linc. Navigator...although, the interior is nice. I think, Lexus should've done a better job with the third row if, they're going to price this truck that much!
2023 here 😊
It competes with the Range Rover, Mercedes GL550, and Cadillac Escalade Platinum.
LOL, at 2:18 she loads a disk and on my side "Firefox Software Update: Update Failed" lol
Instead of comparing this to the Escaladr, Range Rover and Q7, you should have better compared it to the Infiniti QX56 in detail.
Why no newer review
@MegaG15 really? even though the lx is just a land cruiser in a suit?
Could someone explain why, for all this money, the LX cannot be optioned with HID headlights yet the $33000 is250 can be ordered with them? The GX in premium grade has them but their most expensive SUV does not. Yes, I know I can plug in a cheap hid kit but they never look as good as using a projector that was designed for an HID capsule.
Okay... The Lexus will outlast the Infiniti anyday, and has a more established name.
your uncle is a smart man, the question is what are you thinking?
the only thing i hate about suv's is the fuel economy, very bad!!! but besides that i like it!
My dream car!
@sacdude20 Let me guess, you turned in quickly and let off the gas at the same time. If so you encounted the same problem consumers reports did with the lexus lx460, or in other terms, lift off oversteer. This makes sense considering they both use simular technology.
the buick enclave is a nice car...i am in love with the buick and lexus
why cant lexus make a luxury minivan? Most of us will not use its off-road capabilities at all.
Now this is what makes you look rich! :)
agree
What is it
the audi and the rangie are good no doubt, but drive both of them off-road for one day straight and see what will happen ;)
@68hinduhammers actually this is not much more. the inside is much nicer than the land cruiser and really everything is stepped up. to get wood on the land cruiser you have to pay the full price which is the same as the starting lx price. land cruisers are work horses and lxs are work horses that work for moms also!
Lexus LX is 100 times more safer and 100 times more reliable and 100 times more practical and also "cool-looking" and more prestigious than gay, deathtrap, cheap honda odyssey and toyota sienna vans. LX has better handling, power, is more solid than vans. Does anyone else agree? And, the LX is a more ideal family vehivle than minivans
it's incredible car i ride it once it's amazing car
I'm getting this when I get out of college lol range rover just isn't my thing
I know these 2 cars don't really compete, but I'll take a Porsche Cayenne GTS, period.
Looks like a Seqoia (sp?)...
@r3edso4x you probably love all the American cars from the late 70's too.
yes you are right. NOT! Are you telling us that the ES is The EXACT same as the Camry? THE LX is SO DIFFERENT FROM THE LANDCRUISER
@Truemoderate 19 speakers is great if you're a music fan!
It looks good
Ever shrinking suv market didn't age well. 😅
Toyota Landcruiser with lexus badge
4:39 aaaaaahhhh ...... nice
totally true
lexus is the best
Yea it is in the interior bbut not the exterior. the Lexus is more refined and its noticably quiter
@MrDanielBliss consider yourself lucky. here in sri lanka this thing costs around Rs. 50 mn. with taxes, thats like $500,000 @ current exchange rates. I can only dream of owning one.
this should not be compared at all to an escalade
Who the people or ranger rovers
We shall trade the land cruiser,lexus rx 2nd generation,acura tl 3rd genertaion reviews for a r class,glk class,m series,6 series,7 series,4runner,gx,and xterra.
she's cute
No, it's not, maybe you're looking for the wrong model! i've seen them both
what if you dont even have 7 friends...? 1:03
la verdad no me gusta mucho el diseño exterior como que queda la sensación de la generación anterior del LX por otra parte para el tamaño del motor como que deberia dar unos cuantos caballos mas...... por lo demas como no se puede esperar menos de Lexus vaya realmente es lujo por los cuatro costados
wat about the Range Rover, it has only 5 seats and can cost over $100,000
@sacdude20 Well thats exactly what Consumer Reports did with a simular issue that occured in the LX570's little brother, the GX460. They exploded the issue, and Lexus quickly corrected it.
its not ugly,just c it for real not from video !
It felt cumbersome & rotund on the road, very much like a Toyota Landcruiser - The name says it all - isn't a cruiser a big lethargic vessel.
If you have to drive a truck, do you really think spending all that extra cash on a Landcruiser with an "L" on it is really worth it.
and when you see people holding their finger & thumb, in the shape of an "L", on their forehead, it doen't mean "Hey Lexus"
navigator??? you must be kidding me, when looking for luxury suv, look no further. if you ever get the chance to drive this thing , youll spit on a navigator the next time you see one
I would probably go with the Cadillac.
LOL, ask him for a test drive ;)
This does'nt compete with the range rover,range rover has 5 seats.
good choice, but dont be amazed if a piston breaks out of the fckin" engine!!! Thats what happen to a friend of mine! My suggestion, sell it and by this baby. its LEXUS!
@saboobuu Are you kidding me? The Lexus LX is safer & better than the odyssey & sienna in every which way shape and form. V8 engine, 383 horsepower, 4wd, luxurious leather, wood finish, high quality steel, mark levinson sound system, navigation, heated seats in 1st and 2nd row, higher safety ratings than any minivan
I can see its not worth my time to continue this conversation. I would care if the lexus was the one with slower engine. You cannot mention fords name in the same breath as Toyota nore lexus.
Fuck yeah high 5!
I usually respect the majority of luxury car brands for what they offer and look like, but this Lexus looks not almost or kinda, it Looks exactly like a Toyota Land Cruiser. Is it Lexus's goal to aspire to look just like Toyota?? If its such a car that states success why not make it stand out from other SUV's not blend in with a vehicle that's not even in the same categorie of luxury cars. Just another Lexus gone wrong.. I love the car just wouldnt pay for the twin called lexus.
Type in "God needs a bailout" and fast forward to 1:15.. What Saint Peter says is my response to you..
Ever shrinking suv market
this is a toyota landcruiser that has been pimped out inside
I even think it's a german car somtimes
Why
I know same with my mom its ridiculous hahah
Possibility because Lincoln is half the price.
@ihci That was mature.
Thats A LOT of money why buy a Land Curiser when you can buy a Lexus the standard costs the same as the land cruisers fully loaded and the standard in the Lexus is better than the toyota anyway
LOL in what ways exactly?
19 speakers! Really? Seems a bit too much. This is basically the new Land Rover.
Well it's a toyota so they probably wanted to make their 2 full size suvs the same.
I think people Buy Lexus' just because they have a real pretty name.The name kind of just rolls of the tongue like a pretty lady. I can't really see any other reason for owning one, much less paying $80k for this monstrosity.
@sacdude20 ok this car saved my life when a uhaul truck pulled into my lane and hit me head on (about 45-50MPH). This is the best car i've ever had and Lexus has been in my family for 9-10 years. This is my first car and i love it and have never had any problems with it. You should have been in more control over your car next time and stop blaming everyone else for you mistakes
