Wow. All the traffic noise outside, closed the door, and absolute silence! That's the type of opulence I totally dig. 😍 Thanks for posting.

[@user-sk7jo2cz4i]

13:44-14:15 Sorry, sir, your video got a little problem.

[@ShahabKhan-dx6ng]

Outstanding vehicle and Outstanding review

[@josephwilson3930]

That's a nice Lexus jeep, everything is spot on and the grill is so amazing. Thanks 4 the great video.

[@boombox4037]

Now this is luxury

[@adamharb9233]

Very fancy! 🔥😮‍💨

[@ballaki]

Love it

[@thatcorollaguy]

Nice video

[@javierjavier-ht3yu]

Nice ride around the town.

[@nimdanilox7783]

Now this is a car worth its pricetag.

[@naveenthemachine]

😆😆😆😆😆😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. You can’t be serious…🤦🏻‍♂️

[@zoomzoom3839]

I wouldn’t spend 130k on a the ultra luxury trim. I’d probably swing for either the premium or luxury trim. You still can option those out and you get 7 seats and more cargo space.

[@zoomzoom3839]

oh yeah I forgot about that F sport trim. I still think the LX needs to be improved. There’s a lot of things I’m a bit disappointed for a 100k SUV. You don’t get a panoramic roof like most of its competitors, the interior still looks outdated compared to its competitors.

[@weirdshibainu]

​@@zoomzoom3839exactly. I need a 2nd row bench

Hi Winding Road magazine, can you please do a 2022 gmc acadia slt at night and i love your videos

[@d_99a94]

ماشاءالله تبارك الله الله يرزقني

[@MAKII724]

It’s sad that they removed the V8 from this vehicle, especially from the Tundra.

[@busraksu]

It's a beautiful place where is it

[@Slythey]

A bit silly that in order to use the footrest, you can't see the screen anymore, lol (features that jump the price 20 or 30 grand mind you)

[@joshgalka9414]

cool

[@martink7945]

This car is a castle

[@pofrof4910]

[@faheemabbas3965]

Then what about an Escalade ESV?

[@bg1379]

Anyone else think this $130k model is getting considerably less cool than the rugged models of the mid-2000s?

[@rpm773]

Lexus needs to make that grill just a little bigger, and then maybe it will start to look good /s

[@joshgalka9414]

it's perfect as is

[@AlannPhong]

land cruisers have bigger grills

[@AgentSmith911]

Probably the last generation without hybrid or BEV, as with many other cars.

[@user-ps6hp7qi8u]

Where is it place?

[@naashuman5503]

Epic 🏆 Icon.

[@Yourcallisimportanttous]

Love the front but hate the back! They screwed up on the back of this model

[@uraloffroad]

Best SUV

[@naveenthemachine]

Wrong on every single front. Imagine all of us laughing at your comment The best suv is the Escalade GLS grand wagoneer navigator X7 G Wagon Cayenne etc

[@AgentSmith911]

@@naveenthemachine Are you kidding me? Escalade is a glorified gangsta wagon with people looking to mount customized 26" rims with spinners on them, while riding around in the ghetto. No, this Lexus is the way SUVs are ment to be.

[@user-ht8po4tv1c]

@@AgentSmith911hat’s an opinion not fact. Now anything you say means nothing. Also people in the ghetto can’t afford a new Escalade. Maybe a 15 year old one with 120k miles

[@AgentSmith911]

@@user-ht8po4tv1c It's all about image. The Escalade is seen as the car rappers drive around in (usually people with no taste) who often put on ridiculously large rims to make it look like of something straight out of "Pimp My Ride". Meanwhile, the LX is an executive luxury SUV, with style, finesse and a good reputation, often driven by smart, educated and well mannered people with good taste.

[@ballaki]

@@naveenthemachine @AgentSmith911 😂😂 we are in middle east region in asia. here if you say escalade and jeep is better than lexus and land cruiser it is a crime.

[@MusicLuv80]

I am 5ft 11in and my head touched the ceiling when I sat in the driver seat. The salesman was shocked too. If I lower the seat then it gets uncomfortable.

[@zviadzag73]

i am over 6 ,3 ft. this car and G class not for me. Infiniti qx80 or Nissan Patrol more comfortable for me

[@pavel_cargo_industry1023]

The Ultra Luxury trim is pointless unless you have a full-time chauffeur and you don't need to transport your family around.

[@torsung81]

Why not the V8 tho?? Would make the car much, much better.

[@MikeKayK]

Emissions and fuel economy. Per government regulation. Nothing they can do, sorry. In case you haven't noticed, everyone is swapping V8's for turbo/hybrid V6's and V6's for turbo/hybric I4's.

[@Naginc]

I don't know why people just scream v8..There are plenty of V8's that suck. This turbo charged V6 has more power and better fuel economy. The truck is super fast.

[@MikeKayK]

@@Naginc It also has more complexity, more stress, more things that can go wrong, more vibration, less refinement, less linear power delivery, etc. There's more to a vehicle than horsepower and full throttle acceleration numbers. There's no replacement for displacement.... except maybe full electric.

[@MrPlamor]

Not more than 60k, this is not even close to luxury, they just want to money out of us so bad but we don’t have jobs that match today prices 😂

Odd how Lexus got this so right and Toyota got the new Sequoia so wrong.

[@theanlong7854]

This Lexus is designed and made in Japan. Sequoia is designed and made in USA

[@weirdshibainu]

@@theanlong7854 Doesn't matter. Same company. Same product appealing to different but not mutually exclusive customers.

[@user-kt1mb8ok7e]

Go land cruiser 300

[@brq4cars]

The legroom is not good for a vehicle that costs 130k, but it’s a Lexus, so you’ll be getting reliability at least.

[@MikeKayK]

With the new motor and all the new(ish) tech, even the reliability is now questionable.

[@brq4cars]

@@MikeKayK Probably, but they should have used the v8 still. If you’re paying for a 130k vehicle, gas mileage won’t matter. Maybe they should’ve switched to the v6 in a few years because of emissions.

[@MikeKayK]

@@brq4cars If they will need to switch anyway, then might as well start working on the V6 sooner rather than have to scramble later and put out an even worse product

[@brq4cars]

@@MikeKayK The V6 is probably still reliable though

[@MikeKayK]

@@brq4cars Time will tell how reliable it is long term. It may turn out to be acceptable but there's certainly zero chance of it being anywhere near as reliable as the old school, overbuilt, low tech V8s.

[@mexykpietrov]

$130k for a Lexus with V6 and tiny trunk… You must be a hardcore Lexus fan to buy this…

[@bigdlife86]

Or just appreciate the shorter length and leather lined military grade war tank of silence vibe of it. Not for everyone, but is very unique. And most buy the $100-110k models.

[@mexykpietrov]

@@bigdlife86 I highly doubt its „tank” capabilities. I’m pretty sure G-class or RR Sport are much better offroad.

[@bigdlife86]

@@mexykpietrov Not remotely. G wagon yes, but no to a Range Rover. Do a bit more research on why this also is so popular in the Middle East.

[@mexykpietrov]

@@bigdlife86 Land Cruisers is popular in the Middle East, not Lexus LX. It’s not the same. Range Rovers are very capable off road but the problem is just their shitty reliability.

[@AndrewLewer90]

Only an american would think having a V6 is an automatic negative...

[@zanosik5684]

Land cruiser from 80s with Bentley price

[@ryoryo1315]

After all, electric cars are no good. A car with a large displacement is the best.

[@naveenthemachine]

Look at it. It’s ugly outside, outdated inside, forget calling the interior luxurious. It’s not even premium. Tech isn’t great, it lacks features, cramped seats and it’s way overpriced Nobody’s going to care about reliability or take this off road Typical Toyota and Lexus letting us down with almost every redesign. This is no exception

[@torsung81]

Please describe how the interior is outdated. You mean practical and easy to use? Which features are missing? Nobody cares about reliability?? Lexus has the world's most satisfied customers, and it's not because of the grille..

[@kevij371]

Come to middle east will see lot of toyota and lexus off roading . No matter how much u hate toyota and lexus they r still top sellers

[@mike7743]

Laddies and gentlemen, this is naveenthemachine, the guy with Aspergers and mental issues. He’s found negatively commenting on each and every lexus video on KZbin. It’s a mental illness as a result of a non existent and pathetic personal life. Laugh at him and move on 😂

[@naveenthemachine]

@@torsung81look at the gauge cluster and the dual screen setup. Not to mention mediocre materials for a 100k car

[@ericharrison619]

@@naveenthemachineIndeed, there are quite a few Camry bits noticed. They are charging 80k for the suv and adding 20k for the badge on the grill. Don't get me wrong, It looks like a nice place to be...For around 60k.
