The 2008 Lexus LX 570 replaces the LX 470 as the largest SUV in Toyota's luxury brand. With several first-in-class features, the LX 570 offers perhaps the most compelling combination of refinement, safety, on-road smoothness and off-road performance of any vehicle in its segment. Super-sized luxury liners in its class include the Audi Q7, Cadillac Escalade, Mercedes-Benz GL-Class and the Toyota Land Cruiser.

Take your ideal weekend with you — with ease. Hosting a 383-horsepower 5.7-liter V8 engine and 6-speed automatic transmission, the LX 570 gives you a towing strength of 8,500 pounds. The Crawl Control lets you go places you’ve never gone before. Climbing uphill, the LX can automatically be raised three inches to prevent bottoming out. Conquer steep declines with confidence as the feature maintains a low speed to grip difficult terrain.

Versatile seating ensures eight adults will enjoy a luxury ride that includes countless seat configurations. For added legroom, the power second-row seat slides back. Touch another button, the third-row seat rolls to the side as the spacious cargo area lets you accommodate life’s larger necessities (although visibility is hindered somewhat). The power rear door and tailgate combo can make loading and unloading precious stuff easier. Also newly standard are the keyless entry/pushbutton engine start, and 20-inch wheels instead of 18s.

The Four Zone climate control is considered the best in its class. Front and second-row passengers can hand-pick their own temperature settings. That’s four perfect climates under one roof.

The dashboard’s Wide-View Front and Side Monitor is easy to use and helpful. Cameras on the front grille and passenger side mirror help drivers maneuver in tight spaces. Audio cues help avoid parking mishaps.

Ample options include a 19-speaker Mark Levinson Reference Surround Sound audio system, and a rear-seat entertainment system (descending a 9” LCD). Lexus' Pre-Collision Safety System is new, as is remote engine starting.

While it shares the basic redesign of the 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser, the Lexus LX 570 has more sophisticated off-road electronics, lots of interior gizmos and gadgets, enhanced safety, performance and comfort. Sporting $73,800 as its base MSRP, you may just call it “King of the SUV.”
