2014 vs. 2015+ lx’s

[jl199986]

Looking at adding another 200. So many more LX's available than cruisers.

Anything I should watch for on a 2014 vs. later? Anything big to make a newer one clearly worth more? Brake size vs AHC differences or such?

I'll have a look at a 2014 that seems in great shape (we'll see) with low mileage for a good price, clean carfax.

Appreciate the feedback. thanks!

Anything big to make a newer one clearly worth more?

Age and mileage. Just like any other used vehicle.

2014s and 2015s LX570s are mechanically the same trucks. With so many more LX on the market, the lower prices typically reflect this difference compared to the Land Cruisers.

The big change happened in 2016. Majorly updated interior/exterior design and a new 8 speed transmission, better brakes. No changes to AHC. Whether the newer one is "better" or "worth it" is just a personal preference. Both are great trucks and have more in common than not.

If planning on a lot of modifications, the 2016+ LX's are "less compatible" than the rest of the 200's as far roof racks, bumpers, gull-wing windows, etc.

2016+ have an electric handbrake.

2015 and earlier have a normal handbrake.
