It can be said that Tibet is a "holy land" that countless people yearn for, a place that carries dreams and hopes. If I use a poem to describe it, I think "life is not just the rough things in front of you, but also poetry." "And the distance" is so appropriate. But for ordinary people, "entering Tibet" first requires a means of transportation. I think most people still put reliability and comfort first. In this regard, Toyota's models are definitely very good at it.
Whether it is a Toyota Prado or a Land Cruiser, they are all qualified to be called "artifacts in Tibet". Of course, today there is a new hard-core off-road vehicle also built by Toyota that will be released soon, and it is also a... With the Lexus logo, it can be called the "ultimate artifact" due to its strength. Then this model is the new generation Lexus LX.
In fact, I think everyone will be familiar with the LX. It is a full-size SUV model under Lexus. This model was officially introduced to the domestic market in 2004, 15 years ago. It is reported that Lexus has registered patents for new models in overseas markets in order to enrich its LX product line. Recently, a set of renderings of the Lexus LX 600 model have also been exposed on overseas websites. The new car will be built based on the TNGA-F1 platform and is expected to be officially launched in October 2021.
It can be said that Lexus’s purpose this time is very clear, which is to specifically target luxury SUVs such as Mercedes-Benz GLS and BMW X7. First of all, in terms of appearance, the new generation LX will continue the tough appearance of the current model, but the details are more refined than the old model. The middle air intake grille still adopts the family-style spindle design, and the arc area is wider and larger. The headlights on both sides are also sharper. The LED daytime running lights also adopt an underhook design like other models.
On the side, the vehicle adopts tougher body lines, arched front and rear fenders, and a popular suspended roof, which seems to show that it is a genuine off-road large-size SUV. The wheels also adopt a multi-stripe shape. At the same time, the rear of the car also adopts a flat design of modern cars. The small rear wing shape on the rear roof, combined with narrow LED rear taillights on both sides, makes it more recognizable at night. The editor also took a look at the dimensions and found that the length, width and height of the new LX are 5080*1980*1900mm, while the old model is 5070*1980*1910mm. From the data, it is not difficult to find that the new LX is longer than the old model.
In terms of power, the new car may be equipped with the same 3.5T V6 twin-turbocharged engine as the US version of Lexus LS, and the transmission system will also be matched with a 10AT manual transmission. In addition, such as four Driving assistance functions such as drive, differential lock, and adjustable driving modes are also indispensable. According to the official news, Hybrid power will be launched in the future, which means that a 2.5L V6 hybrid system will be added. , and this system has also been widely used in vehicles such as the 10th generation Camry, Lexus ES, and Toyota RAV4, and has received rave reviews.
Written at the end:
Although the interior has not been exposed yet, it is not difficult to see that it is equipped with the TNGA platform and its appearance is a great improvement compared to the old model. At the same time, this is also Changes made in order to comply with the development of this young car market. Secondly, in terms of power system, LX also adds a 2.5L V6 hybrid system for the first time. This can indeed be said to be the most anticipated new Japanese luxury SUV. What do you think?
