Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Need a vehicle that can do it all? The 2017 Lexus LX 570 can seat up to eight and has the ability to tow a trailer. You can tackle a backcountry trail with it, too. But read more to learn how some rival SUVs can achieve similar feats without as much compromise.The 2017 Lexus LX 570 carries over unchanged.

Pros
A smooth ride over rough roads
Advanced off-road capabilities
Plenty of standard features.

Cons
Impractical third-row seat lacks passenger space and doesn't fold flat
V8 engine's poor fuel economy and sluggish acceleration
Infotainment interface can be distracting to use.

Amazingly refined, the Lexus LX 570 hides its utilitarian roots exceptionally well.
Think of the 2017 Lexus LX 570 as a UN Peacekeeper in a tuxedo. Underneath its glitzy, eye-catching exterior and behind its soft leather and glossy wood sits a Toyota Land Cruiser, one of the most capable and over-engineered vehicles to ever hit the road.

Pros
Brawny powertrain
Softer, warmer cabin materials
Real towing capability
As spacious inside as the exterior suggests

Cons
Clunky third-row seating can't be removed
Dismal fuel economy
Clumsy handling
Pitching-and-heaving ride

The 2017 Lexus LX ranks 6 out of 8 Luxury Large SUVs. The 2017 Lexus LX is as rugged as it is luxurious, offering exceptional capability when the pavement ends and an opulent cabin. It also has an excellent predicted reliability rating. However, many of its competitors have more cargo space and better fuel economy estimates.

Pros
Exceptional off-road ability
Top-notch interior
Great predicted reliability rating

Cons
Poor fuel economy estimates
Less cargo room than rivals

Available on the mid- and upper-level EX and SX Telluride trims, the Nightfall Edition package gives the SUV altogether darker vibe in keeping with the industry's various blacked-out "night edition" models. The Telluride's roof rails, skid plates, front bumper air ducts, and logos have all been painted black. A black-painted grille features an eye-catching pattern unique to the Nightfall Edition, and Kia tops it all off with unique 20-inch black wheels and LED headlamps and fog lamps with black inner bezels.
Even though every Nightfall Edition wears the darkened exterior trim, customers can order it with paint in shades of white, silver, gray, dark red, or dark green.
