Tom, I agree with you, selling the 200 Series Land Cruiser for virtually the same price as the LX was a 'no-brain' error. Having said that, why should other markets get access to the basic $60,000 Land Cruiser 300 while we in North America are denied the opportunity? Like every other TNGA redesign, the rear seat headroom in the LX seems to have dropped. I hope Toyota does not pull the same trick with the next GX, 4Runner and Prado.

Hey Tom, great review as always! I love a lot of things about this luxury SUV, one thing I dislike is the frequent stops at the gas station which will ruin the luxury experience. A PHEV set up with at least 40+ miles EV range will fit this SUV better just like the Range Rover without the reliability issues.
Way back in the 90s, I went into the outback in a Landcruiser with a CALM ranger and other researchers. The Landcruiser was perfect and smooth off road.
This is 1990s (or earlier)-type “luxury”. It doesn’t cut in 2023 when every Escalade and Navigator let alone Range Rover is far more luxurious- quiet and comfortable.
@@akathetruthteller lol at people who's says "overpriced, not luxurious enough, buy a German or genesis or caddies". Let people buy what ever they want. Lexus buyer keep buying lexus over and over.
After 10 yrs, lx still delivers the ride and quality as new this is proven fact. Others in junk yard. This is main diff. Others might be more luxurious but also who(rich) cares reliability over luxurious? As the current owner of gx460 2021, i would always buy lexus over other brands for my hard earned money, if i had millions i would buy german.
Yeah, and good luck maintaining a Range Rover. People are so obsessed with brands and prestige, and forget that reliability is a form of luxury. Not worrying about break down really gives you a piece of mind and stress-free ownership experience, and to me that's real luxury. I always compare car ownership to having a girlfriend, would you like having bitchy 10, or a pleasant 8?
Aside from a chauffeur situation, this is perfect for going on cross-country road trips. It would work wonders for rest if you could have drivers swap regularly and be able to get real rest in the back seats. Ironically, it would be great for a particular kind of fast-paced film crew that regularly needs to move around but also have a really comfy camera car.
I would like to test drive the LX 600 in the Premium trim, but the supply is very limited here in the DFW area. When the dealer actually gets one in, it has already been sold. Lexus supply remains extremely tight.
Best time to invest? that's funny though because in the last four months I have lost more than $47,900 in stock market which is the biggest I have loss since I ventured into stock investment.
you could be right or wrong . i once had similar problem but now its a different ball game for me because I was lucky to have met FLORENCE YAGODA , a financial manager and stock expert, I have made more than $165,000 in 6 weeks under her supervisions
Great review as always Tom. I'm surprised that you didn't mention the engine stop/start button located on the display. Seems like a stupid place to put this...
I'm a Lexus fanboy, but I feel like the LX600 is priced ostensibly high given the lack of competitive features, mess of a center stack layout and cheapness of the gauge cluster.
Lexus has been outclassed by the Germans, and now Genesis, for a long time and doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to actually make a competitive product anytime soon.
Oh my...Lexus has been by favorite automaker since their introduction in 1989. However, I totally agree with you. This, ultra-luxury, at $130,000, is not "ultra" especially when compared to the equally all-new Range Rover. This LX 600 is ultra "outclassed."
Having owned a GV80 Prestige for a year…. Genesis is JUNK! In fact, we replaced it with a 2022 Lexus RX350 and although style and performance are a yawn…. the ride comfort and reliability have been miles ahead in the Lexus. No regrets!
Porsche garage queen? I resemble that remark. I don’t race my 911 because (1) its a convertible and I don’t want to install a roll bar and (2) the nearest track is four hours away. I do like carving up the roads here in northwest lower Michigan. Call it what it is. Good review Tom of an aging and not so nice looking vehicle. Happy New Year. Looking forward to lots of great reviews in the year ahead.
Great review. I've been seeing some hype about the cooler in the center console, I'm not sure how some people think it's luxury in 2023 while my 1994 land cruiser came with a cooler and ice maker from factory! Lexus will outlast all other luxury SUVs out there but still the price doesn't add up.
@@DrivenCarReviews not necessarily for the fuel efficiency, but for the added horsepower and torque. Those seem to equal luxury; with the most "luxury" model getting the highest powered driveline, either ICE, hybrid, or electric.
It looks great from outside. Too bad it lacks a V8. And interior seems like a after thought. What’s up with two LCD setup. Does Lexus not even care about how interior looks? I pass and go straight to Escalade.
My 2021 4Runner TRD Pro was $57k out the door. I can’t see $70k more in the luxury or the features of this car. MPG are about the same. The windshield wiper on the rear is better than the one on the 4Runner that is tucked under the rear spoiler which does not work well at all.
Toyota makes more profit in the US than any other market. That should give American consumers access to all Toyota's best products which meet regulatory requirements.
It's really refreshing to see an actual new product from Lexus, but it's not worth that price. It seems like it merely catches up to the class, not leading it in any way. Infotainment is still slow and features are missing. When is Lexus going to debut something state of the art? It's really nice truck though, and I still like the old one.
Well Lexus won’t create anything state of the art Because it looks like they may eventually go out of business. I wouldn’t be surprised if that actually happens. If you want a state of the art Lexus go genesis or Acura

Tom, I love your videos.. But when was the last time we saw any reviewer drive the "base model" of any luxury brand or mainstream. Guess that's why I love Consumer Report, because they only buy the mid-tier models for review.
I’ve heard a couple reviewers mention it being on the manufacturers; giving out fully-loaded (or close to) cars so all the features are on display. You can find some base model reviews here and there if you dig enough, especially on smaller channels.
Press vehicles tend to be fully loaded because they typically have innovative features that the company is trying to show off. So just ignore the flashy options and you have yourself a base model review, No exactly, but kind of.
@@juststuff5216 Hmmm. LeBlanc = Star of Friends. Known by all. Voelk = C-list TH-camr. Best claim to fame being confused with Seahawks coach Pete Carrol.
Narrow roads, lol, that’s an A road with 60mph national speed limit. Looks nice, but $130k… not where I’d put my money if I had that much to spend on a vehicle. Irrelevant though, because i don’t and won’t and I know Americans love Toyota, so I’m sure it makes perfect sense there.
Should have saddle interior. No power side bars. No liners in giver box or maps. Too narrow. Not t roomy enough. How are they trying to sell this as luxury amd as large. It should be a Toyota. Not a Lexus. So sad. So poor.

Ugly and not worth the money. Front end looks so frail; trail capable my foot. Whatever happened to bumpers, especially on vehicles with off road pretensions?
Well that’s already failing. Their sales are tanking and losing market share to the Germans Acura and genesis Give them time. Lexus will be out of business soon
There is nothing ultra luxury about this Lexus, maybe ultra plastic fantastic, ultra ugly too. Once upon the time Lexus used to be a luxury car manufacturer now all the got left is the L logo nothing more, KIA TELLURIDE AND HYUNDAI PALLISADE are more luxurious than any lexus minus the LC500 Series
