We recommend

There is nothing to recommend since the LX570 does not offer any trim levels. Well, the LX570 is well equipped so it really doesn't need anything but if you can afford it go for the Luxury package and bigger 21-inch wheels as it will increase its Luxury and off-road capabilities.

The 383 hp engine with greater torque output combined with all-wheel drivetrain allows it for extreme off-roading. The LX 570 also performs great on roads as well, but its massive power output reduces its fuel efficiency.

When it comes to the competition Lexus is not the best option out there, as the Cadillac ESV takes the best in the class position featuring 6.2L 420 hp engine followed by the Infiniti QX60 while the Mercedes GLS gets the last position. The LX570 might not be the best or the fastest but it's powerful enough to push the competitors to the edge.

As for the competition the Cadillac Escalade takes the lead followed by the GLS450 and the infinity lagging a bit behind. The Cadillac and Infiniti sure performed up to the expectations but the GLS showed some exceptional performance thanks to its lighter body and awesome performance.

What is the 2017 Lexus LX 570 SUV's Braking Performance?

The LX570 features massive 13.9-inch front and 13.6-inch rear ventilated front and rear disc brakes. Well for a big boy like the LX you need some massive brakes as well.

Has the Ride and Handling of the 2017 Lexus LX 570 SUV improved?

The LX570 has some good driving reviews. The LX570 rules the road but can also conquer any type of terrain.

The Massive 6000 lbs body keeps the 570 well planted and the 4-wheel drive provides awesome control and grip over the vehicle, which makes it perfect for off-roading while its independent suspension takes care of the rest.

But unlike the Cadillac, the LX570 is a multi-purpose SUV and is not limited to the smooth looking shiny roads. It might not be as spacious as the Cadillac but is way more Luxurious. Fuel economy might be a problem but for a luxury SUV owner 83.1 cubic foot of cargo volume is more than enough unless you want to put another car into it.

Infiniti QX80

The Infiniti QX80 also comes in a group of luxury SUVs. Despite being way cheaper than the LX the QX80 is rather luxurious and is on par with the LX570 when it comes to off-roads capabilities. The QX80 sure has advantages over fuel economy, cargo volume, engine performance, towing capacity and is way more affordable but it has its own drawbacks.

The QX80 is more likely to be on the retro side as the LX570 is more of a modern SUV. Compared to the LX570 the QX80 is way less functional and comfortable, the QX80 is a bit slow when it comes to technologies, it is comfortable, it is powerful, it is efficient but it is old.

The LX570 is a Luxury SUV that can take you anywhere with your family. Its fuel economy is its major drawback and that is all. The LX is a well-equipped family SUV that can easily handle daily commute with ease. The LX 570 is also equipped with several hi-end features to support off-roading, long rides, camping or business purposes.
