@@unknownanimist2200 Fact is this and the landcruiser 300 are compromised products. The previous gen were better even with their drawbacks. This generation they just killed the design heritage. Thankfully today the new lexus gx550 has been launched and it looks like the most beautiful suv launched this year. Lexus has finally designed something good. This looks bad especially in white . Better. To. Go for nori green if you are paying so much.
Perhaps the most underrated, but SURELY THE BEST Auto Journo in India. Sirish Chandran is an absolute legend. The sheer passion he has for all things automotive stands out in all his videos and by God he can speak as well as he writes.
Might not have a panoramic sunroof or massage seats, but what you get for that money is a car that will probably outlive anyone. Rocksolid reliability which the cars like Range Rover fail to give. A 3.3 litre diesel ❤️ Heaven! And the instrument cluster looks very much like an LFA. The proper Ladder on frame SUV with body roll and nose dive,with the bells and whistles. Bonkers ❤️
Not even a single proper review was not available in the youtube. Thank you evo india for this review. Hope the review of og lc 300 will up in the future.
Boy oh boy what a massive and muscular looking SUV. Built like an absolute tank💪. Interior screems luxury. I was there for the fan meetup at Lexus Meraki and got to experience the 500d. The feel of the driver's seat was just wow!!!
3 crore car and just 50 available, and almost all of us are here just to have feeling. Extreme rich people with so much money will find it out of stock even when they can easily buy. So we people have no chance but we r still here watching this video.
Wow thanks for this video Shirish. Was worth the wait. Its really the big daddy of suv's. The 2nd row leg room is disappointing though for such a large car. The screens are just staring at one's face. Next video pls compare the RR Vogue vs LX 500d.
Great review Shirish. Lexus never had the brand cache that RR/MB/BMW have but what it brings to the table is bullet proof reliability. Even that seems to have been let go of late in these latest iterations with overdose of electronics all around. Even then Ill take the Lexus any day over RR. I also feel looks of the new LC are much more palatable then this LX with Darth Vader grill. The recently launched Lexus GX 550 with twin turbo V-6 is far better looking. The pricing is obnoxious though not that it will matter to its intended target audience.
Most of Japanese car manufacturers are reliable.Mazda,honda,nissan etc are also well known for their reliability rating as per the consumer reports other than toyota.Japanese engineers won't release any car part until has been perfected. This focus on perfection has resulted in more durable, reliable, and ergonomically designed car parts that edge other manufacturers. Japanese are also known for their OCD(obsessive compulsive disorder), Because they perfects anything. If an employee in a factory found some error while manufacturing a car or any other things,The entire manufacturing process will stop and resolve that issue and again starts from the zero. These are some reasons for their unmatched reliability...
While LC or LX doesnt have that wow factor in the cabin, or those fancy features. But do LC or LX customers really care about that ? The only thing that matters to them is the indestructible quality and also the insane comfort driving
Lol...who'd get a 2.8 crore diesel car today when the GoI is so against phasing out diesel cars? If I had that kind of money, I'd wait for the petrol model to come to India.
The biggest ever Grill 😂😂 ! Hmm when grills became the top spec 😅😅😅 ! Btw the waiting period of three years is the only thing that stopping me from buying one 😂
3 CRORE! I cant even comprehend the income bracket one needs to be in to drop this kind of cash on a car. IMO this car does not feel that special and does not look as good as the LC 300. If I had this kind of money, with my sensible hat on in fantasy land I would go for the Range Rover.
@@ShubhoBose its fantasy land so Range Rover has Corolla like reliability 😬😬. If I really was in that end of the market its G-class or X7 for me. Scratch that, If I can afford one I can afford both in fantasy land. 🤣🤣🤣
@@KirkLazurus Better buy a current generation NISSAN PATROL WHICH WILL GIVE YOU BEST OFBOTH WORLDS. You can buy it in india s the suv is made in japan. It will cost you 1.6-1.8 cr . Get the beige interior and it will feel just as good. The size can be a problem because it is thebbiggest amomg landcruiser,Ranfe river or lexus.😊
$410,000 😅 for la lexus that you can buy for $150,000 in the usa. All lexus are built in japan i mean the lexus but you see the price difference. Taxes.
Disappointed with the styling. They could have had better looking wheels atleast. If you think I ak wrong then check out the new Lexus gx that launced today. That suv although isnt the flagship lexus but looks better than this. It even looks better than all of range rovers and land rovers. Thats how you design a car not this. Esp this lx500 is priced at 3.4cr on road. Disappointed. No thrid row seats too
I don’t think I’ve seen a worse car review than this, please do better For reference please watch car wow. Honestly expect more deapth in the character of the car.(shockers, dampers, agility, ability, diff lock, suspension) just dive in the technology or something, educate the audience more about pros and cons of Lexus lx500d and its predecessor with a flow. Just conduct some tests(off road, drag, brake tests) content is so vague and scattered, neither it’s entertaining or informative. It’s a request to get a guy/girl who shows emotions whilst driving. It’s a 3 crore car but the guy is barely happy. There has to be excitement, information, emotion to content. In my personal opinion it lacked everything.
What kind of shallow people buy a spiced up LC. Why not buy an LC. And to think of it, why not buy a 20 or 30 year old LC instead, IF reliability and dependability is what you're looking for. Overpriced junk.
Nowadays toyota has the guts to overprice their cars without even having anything promising, people should change their options to some other brands, then only they're gonna come down to reality
What do you think of LX 500d's styling? Let us know 👇
In Mumbai words...
Faduuuu...👊
Best review channel for me, always love from ODISHA
it’s just 🤮🫠
Ugly is the word....
It should have bigger wheel base
In USA even LX 600 Ultra Luxury $130,905 which is approximately around 1,07,92,000 INR. Too much tax in India 😢
When Sirish mentioned, we aren't going to do stupid things, I was laughing uncontrollably as the only thing stupid to do is to buy this 😂
When u have stupid amounts of money ...no purchase is ever stupid 😂
It is not for you people.
@@ac.bhartiya Yeah, right. It's for stupids.
Yeah say the same thing when your range rover shows air suspension malfunction warning after going through a pothole

Thank you Abhijith! We shall definitely try for that review as well. Meanwhile, do give this video a like and a share.
The best dailog is ' THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW THEY KNOW '. thats it. no need to explaine anything. always BIG LUV for this beauty...
That's true isn't it? This is not everybody's cup of tea.
@@evoIndia so true. Waiting for GX 550 review. Only you guys will make it possible.

Aye! We were glad to have you at the meet up!
Now you know exactly what Sirish is talking about! ;)
I can spot a Rolex on your wrist..I must say ,you have a incredible taste for watches offcourse along with automobiles 🚘☺️👌👏
Sirish definitely has a great taste!

My city has a lx500d but the owner do some kind of illegal business 😳as I heard this from someone

Hey glad to hear you liked the review! We hope you liked it enough to hit that Like button!
@@evoIndia that goes without saying.
Toyota is asking outrageous price for its large SUVs as there is practically no competition in this space!
GOOGLE LEXUS GX.
Damn that is a cool looking car.
Yes! It's a nice looking car! We did post about it on our Instagram (@evoindia). Do check it out if you haven't yet!
Entire video i kept looking at your watch ❤
Haha! Happens to us too!
This video was shot in front of TCS Sahyadri Park at Hinjewadi 👍
Sharp eyes!
We can listen to Sirish talking all day 😂
This is not the first review of lx500d in india. A youtuber from kerala, Najeeb Rehman KP uploaded a review of this car 3 months ago.
2.8Cr for this is Highway robbery. Can never wrap my head around why thr LX & LC is so expensive, yet sells well enough.
Lexus means reliability. But can anyone explain what makes this reliable compared to others. Is it engine, or build quality or after sales service

It's a combination of everything!
The previous lexus lx570 was far better than this current shit.
Off-road practicality at its best 😂😂 Crazy review though ❤
2:43 its 3.5 v6 twin turbo for petrol
It is not about it will never ever breakdown, it is all about making a Statement for the wealthy !
I had LX too in 2004 it was my alto LX 😅
Aah well, we hope your journey from that LX to this LX is complete soon!
Dude do a watch check in every video
While LC or LX doesnt have that wow factor in the cabin, or those fancy features. But do LC or LX customers really care about that ? The only thing that matters to them is the indestructible quality and also the insane comfort driving
That's so true!
Background music on point...Bossy!
Eknath Shinde owns one.
Genuine Reviews= Done by sirish sir
True ( Closing Statement! Invincible )
It's beast ❤
That it is!
We have got two of those in mlore😊
Oh that's crazy!
A Defender may be a better choice
Imposing was a word invented for this car!
Haha! So true!
75 lakh rupee car in the US is 3.5 crore on road in India. I will leave you with that.
That's the taxes and duties!
Diesel engine is always 💪🏻
There is no exterior category in the video.
Compare it with NISSAN PATROL . PATROL is more value for money though its not available in india.
We can try if we get our hands on one!
I would like to know how will a Land Cruiser compare to it?
You know the car is huge when sirish looks like a mouse from inside
How are the brakes? They look absolutely tiny with respect to the absolute size of the beast.
They are sufficient.
Why bother using brakes
That's what salu bhai said 😅
Lol...who'd get a 2.8 crore diesel car today when the GoI is so against phasing out diesel cars? If I had that kind of money, I'd wait for the petrol model to come to India.
Its just a taxi in Dubai.
Common man left the chat. Including me 😅
Haha! We know that feeling!
Land Cruiser's elder brother
Posher elder brother!
The biggest ever Grill 😂😂 ! Hmm when grills became the top spec 😅😅😅 ! Btw the waiting period of three years is the only thing that stopping me from buying one 😂
You can earn and collect 3 crores in 3 years and then take the Car 😂
Nikku coupler ko kaho ki honda elevate ke liye ye kit laaye. Laa dega 😅
Money can buyy
i will rather spend my 3cr on range rover sports
Its an irony that this stuff is built to last but fuddu indian govt rules it wont be able tolast more than 10 years .😅
Middle class' LX 500d : Scorpio N
Super
3 CRORE!
I cant even comprehend the income bracket one needs to be in to drop this kind of cash on a car.
IMO this car does not feel that special and does not look as good as the LC 300.
If I had this kind of money, with my sensible hat on in fantasy land I would go for the Range Rover.
Haha! Insert the math calculation gif here.
If you had your sensible hat on, you would stay away from Land Rover as much as possible and only buy Lexus.
It's way way more overrated
But x7 aur gls aur range rover land rover
Similar to this Lexus if not better

Harrier still wins , harrier is badass
A car whose insurance premium is more than my salary 😂
Haha! We know that feeling!
I want to see how will it compare with its cousin Land Cruiser?
Too much money , too much tax ...
People who evade tax can buy it , as well as good revenue.

Even with reliability it's not comfortable or big or quick as a gls or x7 which are less than half the price of this car
👍
Thank you!

For reference please watch car wow.

Why !?
It’s not worth it.
I think Diffender is Greater than this 😁laxus
The Defender is a different segment.
@@evoIndia Laxus looks bavander suv but laxuri wise 🤪it same as Diffender,and it can't make off roading like diffender⚔️

Overpriced junk.

Sigh!
As good as this car is, it’s ridiculously overpriced.
What do you think would have been a good price for this?

Sooooo expensive of its worth
Not a good idea of buying it soo
