2021 Lexus LX

[105X]

Hey guys,

I recently came across a post on Instagram that shows that there are a few changes coming to the LX for the US market.

First off, exterior wise, there’s a new front splitter and grille design, and some new wheels:

And here’s a picture comparing the previous kit to the new one:

There’s also a new interior color for the inspiration series:

Just when you think that grill can’t get any worse...

Hmm. Are we sure that that will be for the US market?

 

[bencallaway]

Not US spec.

Not US spec.

I checked on the Lexus USA site, and it says “coming soon”. Apparently Nori Green (color code 6X4) is coming to the US as well.

The wife’s GX has the same grill. I don’t think it’s that bad in person.

They are really trying hard to make LC/LX into a minivan!

Thank God up in heaven that gaping yaw grill didn’t migrate over to Toyota. That grill is the only reason I bought a LC over a Lexus. You have to wonder how many sales Lexus lost because of that grill.

Love the green

Striking resemblance to a Sienna. Yuck

I actually like the grille, but the chin being so low on a vehicle intended to go off-road is a non-starter.

Can’t understand why Toyota/Lexus can’t just fix that terrible approach angle if they consider it an off-road/luxury vehicle.

They did. Buy a landcruiser instead. I’m pretty sure the vast majority of people buying LX570s couldn’t care less about approach angle, so I don’t fault toyota for the design. It just doesn’t fit into what I’d need of it, despite me kind of liking the look. And to be clear I like the look of a 16+ cruiser more, I just don’t get as triggered by the 16+ LX as some.
The guy that got a 16 or 18 and cut the front end up to put a bumper on it though.. that one looks awesome.

Thank good goodness for pre-2016 LX570s.

My 2008 is pretty tame in comparison.

Are there any aftermarket front ends that can take the Predator Look?

I know the landcruiser is better with approach angle, but I like the LX better mainly because it’s a Lexus and Lexus most of the time has better service.

Note to 2031 self, buy a used 2021 Lexus LX570 Black Edition S in Nori Green. Hope that paint still looks good in 10 years when i can afford one.
