Lexus LX570 launched in India at Rs 2.32 crore

Lexus India has launched its flagship SUV LX 570 in the country. The 2018 LX 570 luxury SUV is the petrol-engined 8-seater petrol version of its diesel sibling, the LX 450d. As the name suggests, the LX 570 comes powered by a 5.7-litre V8 petrol engine producing 360 bhp and 530 Nm of torque. Mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, 100kph is achieved in an impressive 7.7seconds. 225mm of ground clearance and multiple multi-terrain adjustment systems for the four-wheel drive (4WD) is ideal to take its occupants in luxury to just about anywhere they desire. Using a body-on-frame production technique, the LX 570 aims to reduce noise and vibration to a minimum by separating the suspension from the body.

In terms of design, the new LX 570 will feature signature style design elements such as the spindle grille and the eye-catching Lexus L-shaped illumination of the triple LED headlights. Inside, the mark of the Takumi is evident with the superior semi-aniline leather interiors and Shimamoku trim on the steering wheel.

State-of-the-art entertainment is provided by a premium 19 speaker Mark Levinson surround sound system delivering home-theater quality in-car entertainment along with high-definition 11.6-inch liquid crystal AI (Artificial Intelligence) displays for rear seats.
