This newly-developed engine delivers a sophisticated fusion of exhilarating driving performance and excellent fuel efficiency. The compact high-efficiency twin scroll turbocharger is combined with an Atkinson Cycle engine with Dual VVT-iW. To realize optimum combustion, the innovative D-4ST features both direct and port injectors. This advanced Lexus engineering helps generate high torque from low through to high rpm ranges, high level responsiveness, as well as enhancing fuel economy.
The NX exterior intrigues with a constantly shifting series of solid surfaces that exude power and agility. Starting with the signature Lexus ‘spindle grille’, the exterior is bold and compact, the sculpted diamond-shaped body, flared wheel arches and large wheels emphasize the firmly planted stance, and radiate lively performance. The fusion of condensed dynamism with edgy solid surfaces powerfully expresses the superb agility and dynamic individuality of this fresh sporting spirit.
The NX was developed around the core concept of ‘Premium Urban Sports Gear’, a next-generation Lexus that applies an urban focus to luxury SUVs. The result is a game-changing, urban-focused SUV, with the acceleration, agility and handling to effortlessly negotiate city traffic, the utility to meet the ever-changing needs of an active and dynamic lifestyle, fuel efficiency that embodies environment-aware values, and the sophisticated features and refined detail that is a Lexus hallmark.
Stunning 20-inch aluminium with dark alloy wheel finish create a dynamic impact. This combination adds to the visual appearance of the LX570 Sport, powerfully expressing its performance characteristics.
Drilled aluminium sport pedals are extensions of the LX Sports performance driven design which takes driving experience to the next level. Additional select interior features for the Sport edition include exclusive floor mats.
The performance edge of the LX570 is accentuated by the Sport package. The sport package adds more aggressive appeal without compromising the luxury feel. It features a gun metallic finished upper grille and honeycomb mesh lower grille with Fog Lamp bezel, which gives this model a distinguishing look. Special front and rear spoilers increase aerodynamic performance while also contributing to excellent straight-line stability and suppressing body lift.
The Lexus LX Sport continues to use a potent 5.7-liter V8 that makes 362 horsepower and 54 kg-m of torque, enough to propel the 3350-kg SUV from zero-to-hundred km/h in the mid 7-second range. A 6-speed automatic transmission provides silken shifts and offers a wide spread of gears to maximize efficiency.
