If you’re of a particular type of customer who needs the ultimate in Japanese luxury and off-road capability, you’re essentially stuck with just one option: the . Not only is it the only option for a buyer in the U.S. of the kind of vehicle I just described, it’s also the only way to get a Land Cruiser in the U.S. though .

This generation of LX was . While the huge “Predator” grille had been a part of the LX since its 2015 refresh, it was carried over and updated for ‘21. The biggest change though was the loss of the V8 engine, something the LX has had since the late 1990s. Power for the LX — now called LX600 — comes from the same twin-turbo V6 found in the Toyota / and however in the LX it doesn’t receive hybrid tech. It makes 405 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. That gets paired to a full-time four-wheel drive system and a 10-speed automatic transmission.

Of course with this essentially being a luxury-laden Land Cruiser all the capability is there, with features like an adaptive variable suspension and six-mode Multi Terrain Select System. But this specific LX is more luxo cruiser than jungle-traversing, trail-attacking SUV.

This LX600 is the ultra-luxury trim. With a $132,630 MSRP, it comes with seating for four in diamond-stitched leather, four-zone climate control, chilled center armrest, and, best of all, dual reclining and massaging captains chairs, the right of which fully reclines and turns into an ottoman. With a price tag that makes it the most expensive Lexus on sale and with some of the most luxurious features you’ll encounter at the luxury brand, what do you want to know about the Lexus LX?

You believe you are, in fact, "Professional Grade." You've got a taste for honeycombed chrome, but not enough to go straight to the level of Cadillac Escalade. Your job requires you to drive around with at least five large men (or women) daily at a time, their various instruments of...

I first became acquainted with the 2008 GMC Yukon Denali when I called up the folks at the General in January and said "Hey, we need a mobile command center for the Detroit Auto Show...and oh yeah, it's got to seat six plus gear." GM's media fleet people claimed they...
