2024 LEXUS LX REVIEW I THE LUXURY LX 600
If you are looking for luxury and comfort in an SUV, the 2024 Lexus LX 600 is the choice for you. It combines the expected elegance of Lexus design details with off-road durability. This flagship vehicle is known for its longevity even when it spends hours conquering rocky roads on the weekends after taking on the city for the workweek.
The LX 600 brims with features like advanced technology, ample cargo space, ride comfort and proven safety. This review will detail standard amenities and more. Read on to learn how the Lexus LX 600 has become one of the most coveted SUV’s on the market.
Lexus Flagship SUV Power and Performance
Having been fully redesigned from the ground up in 2022, the Lexus LX 600 is known for power without sacrificing the comfort expected in a luxury cabin. The 3.4 liter twin-turbo V6 engine gives off leader-of-the-pack energy delivering an amped 409-horsepower going from zero to 60 in just over six seconds.
The powertrain generates a potent 479 lb-ft of torque giving the LX 600 driver a sporty, powerful ride. This level of acceleration is essential when going off-road to power up hills and over stone.
Four-wheel drive and direct shift 10-speed automatic transmission are standard on the LX 600.
The ten choices ensure a calculated accuracy at each speed and gives the driver an acceleration similar to the feeling of a manual transmission. Quicker shift times are a given with the cross gear ratios and the transmission has lockup capability at most speeds.
Lexus provides a 4-year/50,000 mile warranty AND a 6-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty. Plus every new Lexus including the LX 600 comes with Lexus Care. These are benefits not found on rivals like BMW and Mercedes Benz.

Luxury off-roading with the LX 600
Who knew off-roading could be enjoyed in an SUV as elegant as the Lexus LX 600? For a day or trip filled with outdoor sport and fun, this land cruiser has 45-degree climbing ability with a maximum 44-degree inclination angle and it can cross water up to 27.5 inches deep.
Its multi-terrain system allows the driver to be in complete control selecting from low to high range or using auto mode. Four wheel drive will help the Phoenix driver handle Southwestern terrain, whether it’s rocky, loose dirt, sand, deep mud, or snow. Even the Crawl control has options with five speed settings, managing the throttle while you steer.
Four cameras surround the vehicle providing added safety while allowing the driver to see what is coming on the trail. You can watch the front, sides and rear cameras along with the back underfloor view which reveals possible tire obstacles. Lexus LX drivers have observed that the camera system keeps an eye on blind spots as well.
Lexus utilizes a GA-F platform to ensure that the load is balanced and its stability can assist with safe driving whether on or off-road. The double wishbone suspension is mounted high for ground clearance with the travel length required for bound and rebound.
Performance Innovation - LX 600 and LX 600 F Sport
The Lexus Driving Signature is the philosophy guiding the development and innovation of Lexus vehicles. Its aim is to provide the perfect balance of luxury and performance while giving Lexus owners an exceptional driving experience.
These additional features further enhance the harmony between the LX 600 and its driver. Electric power steering provides light steering when going slowly on the road and an extra weightiness for higher speeds allowing the driver to focus on the road. The EPS gives you more refined control of the flagship SUV whether navigating paved routes or going off-road.
Exceptional stopping power is provided by the Electronically controlled brakes. The brake sensors detect the degree of pressure on the pedal ensuring linear braking. The ECB gives detailed control on the trail when working to counter slipping or spinning.
Both the EPS and ECB are a part of the Lexus Driving Signature’s goal of delivering seamless integration of acceleration, steering and deceleration.
Another performance feature is the stylish spindle grille fine tuned by engineers to ensure proper cooling for the high-output engine. The large side radiator grilles add additional air for cooling. Both provide striking visual impact.
The LX 600 F Sport, in addition to robust interior cabin styling, provides the assistance of a rear Torsen® LSD. This Limited Slip Differential targets brakeforce to reduce slippage to either rear wheel. This evens out each wheel’s RPMs, helping the LX glide through curves and turns. On straighter stretches, it ensures stability without slowing the SUV down.
Suspension System Driving Advantages
Due to a redesign in 2023, the Adaptive Variable Suspension on the Lexus SUV Flagship is cutting edge in the way it accurately and quickly responds. It adjusts to take on whatever toughness the auto faces on the open road like ruts, bumps and erosion.
The AVS has a linear solenoid valve system and it reacts in milliseconds to both road and trail conditions. Whether it stiffens springs for curves or slackens them for straight roadways, it is done with exceptional precision.
Active Height Control suspension assists the driver with ride height positions to adjust to road conditions. There are three settings for the AHC while the LX 600 is in motion - normal, Hi1 and Hi2. In addition, drivers can choose a low setting to help with loading people or cargo.
The AVS and AHC are part of the reason for the SUV’s smooth and comfortable ride Lexus’s owners have come to expect.
Lexus Safety Feature Standards
A host of features make up the Lexus Safety System which is standard on all vehicles including the LX 600. The Pre-Collision System (PCS) has Frontal Collision Warning and Automatic Energy Braking along with bicyclist and pedestrian detection. PCS also has Emergency Steering Assist which can be prompted by the driver.
When driving above 30 mph, the All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control can be used to execute vehicle-to-vehicle distance down to 0 mph. This adaptive cruise control can guide the Lexus to evenly pass slower vehicles on the road after being notified by the turn signal.
Lane Departure Alert and Lane Tracing Assist are used above speeds of 32 mph and are designed to keep the driver safely within the center of the lane. The LDA alerts the driver with steering wheel vibrations or sound notification. The LTA is used when cruise control is on and provides alerts and steering aid to center the vehicle in the lane.
In addition, the safety system includes intelligent High Beams that switch to low when detecting oncoming traffic and Road Sign Assist conveniently displayed on the multi-information display.
Elegant Color Choices for Interior and Exterior
Everyone has a favorite car color and when choosing your LX 600 packages, you can pick one to suit your style. Unique shades of Manganese Luster and Caviar are available along with pearls in exclusive Atomic, Nori Green or Eminent White. Black Onyx or Ultra White are the primary F Sport model exterior colors.
Of course, it’s always exciting to choose your Lexus interior. For the flagship SUV, there are brown shades of Palomino, flash and fire of Circuit Red, and distinctive caramel of Sunflare. For a sleek look, you could choose traditional black or a stylish white and Peppercorn combination.

Cutting Edge Technology and Trim Levels
The high-tech interior of the LX 600 has a two-screen infotainment system providing for full navigation and the latest in infotainment technology. A gauge panel assisted by a 7-inch touch display allows eye level viewing of the ride height and other important navigational tools and a 12.3-inch upper screen provides more information or map views.
The Voice Assistant is the primary way to interface with the multimedia system. There are two microphones, speaker customization, and noise-cancellation options. The voice prompted program allows the driver an enhanced driving experience as they access vehicle control settings, navigation, media or phone.
F Sport Handling trims are all about combining luxury with a sporty vibe. Lateral g-forces are offset by the uniquely crafted and comfortable front seat. The interior wows with Circuit Red semi-aniline leather and Hadori Aluminum trim.
Ultra Luxury Trim Level for the Flagship SUV
The LX 600 Ultra Luxury trim level provides the height of elegance and technology combined to give the driver and guests an incredibly comfortable ride. The supple leather interior offers a 10-way adjustable driver’s seat and eight-way adjustable passenger seat. Both are climate controllable with a heated steering wheel for the driver.
The VIP second-row seating has more than ample leg room with a pop-up footrest. Posture is controlled with the push of a button and the entertainment system comes with wireless Bluetooth headphones.
The Ultra Luxury headrests, cushions and seat backs are all crafted for ultimate comfort. Sunshades block unwanted glare and reading lights are available for nighttime drives. The air conditioning has overhead vents and a flat work surface is provided when the cup holders are closed.
