Intro

Due to the lifespan and powertrain of the LX, it is described as a powerful vehicular monster by many. Since 2007, the current generation LX570 has received three facelifts. The LX is built for a relaxed and comfortable drive, with the company focused on continuing this trend. The 2018 LX570 boasts first-class finishes.
