Since we have already seen the Lexus LX600 on our roads, will it be launched soon?
So a brand new Lexus LX600 SUV has been spotted right here in Malaysia. This has led to much speculation and even more questions. The main question, though, is when can we expect this SUV to be launched here now that we have already seen it? Powering the LX600 is a robust 3.4-liter V6 twin-turbo gasoline engine, known as the V35A-FTS.
This powerhouse delivers an exhilarating 409hp and a maximum torque of 649Nm., ensuring a thrilling driving experience. The engine’s performance is particularly notable for its ability to maintain maximum torque across a wide range up to 3,600 rpm, making it exceptionally versatile for both on-road and off-road adventures.
Moreover, the LX600 is equipped with a 10-speed Direct Shift Automatic Transmission, which enhances driving dynamics. This system combines the smoothness of a torque converter with the responsiveness of a manual transmission, ensuring seamless gear transitions.
The carefully calibrated gear ratios provide not only strong starting comfort but also robust performance at higher speeds, ideal for various driving conditions. For off-road enthusiasts, the Lexus LX600 boasts features designed to tackle rugged terrains. A Torsen limited-slip locking centre differential is standard, allowing the vehicle to effectively distribute power between the front and rear wheels.
On top of that, this capability enhances control in low-grip scenarios, reducing wheel spin and improving stability during challenging drives.Inside, the LX600 continues the Lexus tradition of luxury with a state-of-the-art infotainment system. It features a 12.3-inch high-definition touchscreen paired with an additional 7-inch lower touchscreen, providing intuitive controls that resemble smartphone operations.
The design prioritises clarity and ease of use, ensuring both the driver and front-seat passenger can navigate effortlessly. While the Lexus LX600’s specifications have captured attention, the burning question remains: when will it officially arrive in Malaysian showrooms?
Given its recent sightings and the growing anticipation, industry experts speculate a launch could be imminent, potentially within the next few months. However, official confirmation from Lexus Malaysia is eagerly awaited to provide a precise timeline.
As we await further announcements, potential buyers and enthusiasts can keep their fingers crossed for what promises to be an exhilarating addition to the luxury SUV segment in Malaysia. The Lexus LX600 is not just a vehicle; it’s a statement of performance, luxury, and capability waiting to be unleashed on Malaysian roads.
