I disagree with you. Owning one of these is much less expensive as compared to German SUVs in terms of maintenance. For example, you can drive up to 10,000 miles before being due for an oil change whereas you only get 5,000 miles on a Mercedes or BMW. Also, you have to change the transmission fluid, brake fluid, etc more frequently on the German SUVs as compared to LX.
@@saadmahmood5396 Yeah I get it, that is the only complaint with owning a GX 470 is it gets 12 MPG and now at 4.50 gallon for premium it gets tough, not really a communter car unless you live on dirt roads. I know petro is much more expensive elsewhere, so it is a local problem.
@@saadmahmood5396 i disagree on what you’re saying, my dad’s friend is suffering from the Lexus lx 570 because that car is so thirsty. But it’s a capable off roader
Great review! This shape certainly looks dated but you did it a great service throughout. Chasing Cars is continuing to lead in the the vehicle review scene.
I just love the way you review and your dialogue and commentary is so soothing. Almost like ASMR. You did, however, nicely talk me out of buying it . lol. I can't wait until the 2022's or 23's hit the road. Hoping they make all of the suggested changes in the forthcoming model.
Good review but you downgraded the fuel economy on this marvelous suv. I have been getting on highway 21 mpg at 62 mph speed on cruise control and premium fuel so a lot more than what the 16 mpg Lexus reports for highway! In city it is actually lower than the 12 mpg Lexus claims. Regardless, it is a superb suv and much better than the LX 600.
@@nkgudih I have a feeling by the time this car becomes affordable for the average person (under $50k) there will be likely big taxes on cars like these. As it is I could barely afford the rego let alone the fuel consumption (20.2L/100km in the city acclaimed)
Currently own a no 300 h sports luxury, more than enough for our family of 4,if we ever want more room then the RX 450h will be superb choice.but I can’t see we will ever need a LX.however I do love the look of this vehicle .
In south Africa its actually way more expensive than the Toyota, same as Mercedes gls450 d. Its just too expensive 4 what u getting. The engine is too thirsty and most people can't afford such cars anyway.
@@МаксутКадырбаев-и9х in some aspects, yes. No car beats Toyota/Lexus over comfort and reliability. Infotainments are bad yes, but hey, American and European cars have even worse problems.
At the risk of sounding condescending but who in their right mind would pick those over a range rover, GLS, X7, Q7/Q8? This does everything worse except off roading which we all know no one will be doing with their $180k+ SUV. I have never understood Lexus's appeal unless is it cheaper?
The answer lies here... Compare the current condition of an average 2004 LX with average 2004 X5, ML and Range rover. You can find solid LX with 350k+ kms all day long, while most BMWs, RRs, and mercs are falling apart at 150k kms.
Those buying the germans switch out their vehicles after 3-5 years either because they got bored of it or because the repair bill was getting too much... and thats saying something when those who can afford GLS/X7/Q7/Q8/RR think the repair bills r too expensive. And i know a guy who owns a cayenne. He sold it off when the repair bill after 1 year couldve bought him.. well.. another car. U want a luxobarge that can easily do half a million clicks and last for a decade atleast... u get these babies. The price didnt go to overengineering. The germans overengineer their vehicles. And thats not a bad thing. But toyota “overbuilt” the landcruiser model and its derivatives.
I couldn’t bring myself to purchase a “has-been” model like this or the LC-200. Yes, the LS is good but everything about the new model will be better. Ancient technology has no appeal. This car was designed 15 years ago........ In any case the V8 Touareg or X5 V8 is a vastly superior car for similar money 💰
Deer fuckin lord, this thing is hideous, Hesus Krist.... It's so ugly even his mother doesn't praise it..... Maaaaan, is there a prize for the worst looking car ever? We've got a contender.
The Powerful The Reliable The Luxurious The Emotion...The Lexus Lx570...❤️
Now that the new LX is out, I’ll keep my 570.
Crying out for a complete refresh.
Riding to the sunset, I am holding my breath for next years all new LX based on LC300, must be a real deal to the g wagon
As they say, buy once and cry but the joy of owning one of these you can cry every time you refill it.

Fantastic vehicles, long time LX owner here and can’t fault them, and its hydraulic suspension not air

Just get a slightly used one since nothing has been changed for years.
Done, got a 21 LX570 for a sweet deal w only 40Kmiles
Well done, Tim! Likewise, we just got a CPO LX 570 with 21k miles.
Omg. My favorite man and car at the same time.
I always enjoy your review.
Jacket change noted!
I prefer this old school look. reminds me of the land cruisers from 2003
With the crazy prices for the LandCruiser, has it affected LX values where they are really close now?
LX has barely been affected. This LX is cheaper than several Saharas on the market right now
@@chasingcars What would you choose Tom?
LX diesel with an aftermarket front bar so it can trail-bash
As pointed out ironically cheaper than the Landcruiser at the moment including the diesel
@@chasingcars aren’t the approach and departure angles a lot less son the LX than the land cruiser?

This is the king in South East Asia countries
bloody beautiful car but that price tag... woah. If I had the money and wanted a reliable luxury SUV that actually lasted I'd buy one of these.
The 2nd hand buyer always gets maximum value, in cars this price range

140k ridiculous, but its only around $95k in my country
It has a fridge which is cool........ dad joke Tom.
Are you filming this with a samsung s6?
The Lexus' base is from 2008, kind of dated. Still, excellent review, and I like the car nevertheless. Very luxury and long reliability!
Great review! Thanks 🙏🏽
We need sport version of Lexus LX 570 comes with 2 row seats to compete with Rang Rover sport.
everyone asking for a new design. what? do u think they can pump out completely new cars every year?
GREAT $$$ price, I might buy 2!!!
V8 will be gone and a turbo charged V6 to be used instead?
Highly likely
What is the gearbox in this beast?
Toyota/Aisin 8 speed auto.
good car no 1
Is it on an air suspension or hydraulic?
Air suspension
Hydraulic.
Definitely hydraulic

it doesnt drive like a truck but drives like a large suv?? whats the difference?
Lexus lx S super car
Hard to get this over the GLS
That lexus driver tells the world I am rich and your not.
haha, maybe can try to make facelift, will make same face.
True hahaha..
TOP LUXURY OFFROAD 😎👍🏻
Lexus have removed the diesel option from its website so the new model must be close
In south Africa its actually way more expensive than the Toyota, same as Mercedes gls450 d. Its just too expensive 4 what u getting. The engine is too thirsty and most people can't afford such cars anyway.
If you can afford it, fuel consumption is not the issue, I guess...
Greetings from Germany
Keep Groovin Tom 🎭
Превосходно ! Молодец !
i wish we get this car in uk
People should know the history and the capability of Land Cruiser, then they understand the price.
Better than Jeep rubicon or Land Rover defender you think??

Is it with electric parking brake?.
Yes it is.
@@chasingcars Ty Dear🙏🙏👍
It's a bit thirsty and the technology is a bit out of date better too go for something half the price
King road in Cambodia all yearly #LX570 and price USD $226,000
so high! also we can try to facelift the car as LX570,very beautiful too.
My "19 200 Series is more than adequate for my needs

Hi, The juicemedia from AUS presented EV sistem in the future few days ago and I hope, they don't see review of this car, they will cry.
The suspension is hydraulic! Not pneumatic.
OK, same result though.
10:17 pause
Canyonerooo . Yah.
Aus most independent car reviewer : You can choose black, but I'm not sure why you'd.
Haha. Well, I have always said design is subjective. If you like the black, you go for it.
I couldn’t bring myself to purchase a “has-been” model like this or the LC-200. Yes, the LS is good but everything about the new model will be better.
Ancient technology has no appeal. This car was designed 15 years ago........
In any case the V8 Touareg or X5 V8 is a vastly superior car for similar money 💰
Yes the Toureg and X5 are supremely superior in terms of technology for maybe 2 to 4 years but the lexus is supremely superior in terms of reliability
Nobody buying a 200 or LX would consider a “hi-tech” German Shizen-Box though.
BMWs and VWs are fragile compared to this tank
x5 is ybred hybdebes yevhiy
V8 will disappear and we be replaced 3.5 l litre hybrid
What is with these grills? It truely ugly and a reason not to buy this car. I enjoy my 2002 Lexus LX470 with 35 inch rims even more....

Buy a Lexus. When you service it. I get charged out at $220 an hour. And when the Toyota Land Cruiser comes in. I’ll get charged out at $120 an hour.
For the price, the interiors are trash lol
This SUV is only for legends.

The ultimate waste of money
wrong
an overpriced land cruiser....which is old and outdated
Ugliest car on the road.
Deliberately ugly
I actually think it looks better than the Landcruiser which looks a bit dopey.
