Are you shopping around for a new luxury ride? Have you considered the perks of a large SUV? The upcoming model year holds plenty of promise from the new Lexus LX, including a powerful engine. For the 2020 model year, get the new Sports Package. It adds plenty of sizzle to the three-row LX’s appeal, including a new grille design and chrome-detailed side mirrors. Let’s take a closer look at the 2020 Lexus LX. Here are five things you need to know.
1. Powerful Engine
A large SUV needs a big heart, and Lexus added a robust 5.7-liter V-8 under the hood of the 2020 LX. This powerhouse pairs quite nicely with the responsive and energetic 8-speed shiftable automatic transmission. It’s a combination that’s good for 383-horsepower to deliver quick acceleration, even at highway speeds.
2. Roomy and Comfortable Interior
One of the LX’s top-selling points is its beautifully crafted cabin. It seats five passengers in the two-row variants or eight in the three-row models. This SUV comes outfitted with two sets of connectors for installing car seats, and Lexus uses only top-notch materials throughout its roomy and comfortable interior.
3. Off-Roading Performance
Lexus engineered the new LX with exceptional off-road capability. For a luxury SUV, it surpasses most competitors. The 570 variant is equipped with four-wheel drive, and thanks to features like an adjustable suspension, a locking center differential, crawl control, and a two-speed transfer case, the 2020 LX easily handles just about any terrain that you dare to conquer. It can even tow 7,000 pounds, so hook up that boat or trailer and hit the road less traveled in opulent style.
4. Advanced Technology Features
Lexus is known for its long list of posh appointments, and its technicians didn’t forget about the LX. It boasts an enormous infotainment system with a 12.3-inch touch screen display. It’s loaded with all the apps you want and need such as navigation, plus Bluetooth and USB charging ports, and wireless smartphone charging.
It also comes with Lexus’ Remote Touch controller. This handy gadget makes it even easier to click through the system’s menus. Navigate to your favorite screen or feature without having to take your eyes off the road. Rear seat passengers will love the entertainment system fueled by the premium 19-speaker audio system and satellite radio.

Lexus includes an available head-up display, rear cross-traffic alert, a 360-degree camera system, adaptive cruise control, automatic braking, and front and rear parking sensors.
