2022 Lexus LX600 | Needs Work 

A very sophisticated suspension system for the next overland expedition to Lululemon.

Glad to see Lexus has mastered connecting a car to a grill.

I hate repeating myself, but you guys make some of the best car review videos on RU-vid. Can't wait to see how reliable this gen is so I can hopefully buy one in 15 years.

Missed a chance to say "it's either going to turn heads or turn stomachs" :) Love the video and have been a long time fan of the channel. Keep it up!

It’s crazy yet refreshing to not see clickbait titles! Keep up the good work 😃

Needs more Grille. I can still see a Car there.

The 2nd row lack of everything is a major deal breaker for a luxury suv like that

Please let this stage of super glueing a tablet onto the dash come to an end. It feels like so little thought was put on it. I love the older designs where it was built into the dash. It felt more like a special space where someone actually thought about placement/shape

Drove an LX600 (F-sport) today with the consideration of purchasing, which landed me here. Once again, another stellar (and spot-on) analysis of this vehicle gentlemen, well done. I made the comment to the salesman the secondary screen appeared to be an after thought. Overall though, I really enjoyed the ride quality of it. In a bizarre way, I felt it was a splendid combination of my LC500 and my 10 year old 200 Series Land Cruiser that this would be replacing. I'm a long time Toyota/Lexus fan, reliability and resale ranks very high in my book for this type of vehicle. It will be an investment, but if history repeats itself, buying a Toyota/Lexus is far less risky. Thanks again for the input/review.

As a salesperson for the Lexus brand, reliability has been the strongest selling point in my career. But recently, with the introduction of the NX and LX, I’ve had to foreshadow my clients experience with, “you are buying a brand new, fully redesigned vehicle, therefore, you are agreeing to be a test subject for the next several months while Lexus works out all the kinks found from real world testing. You will probably encounter an issue or some idiosyncrasies within the first year of ownership, but we are here to help you because we want you to have the best ownership experience possible.” Instilling patience in my guests has been the best method to maintain loyalty to the Lexus brand.

This is why I respect this channel because your criticism is straightforward and honest as it can be and that's all you can hope for for channel that reviews cars

I'm just in LOVE with how deep you guys go into analyzing these vehicles.

Hank Hill is sweating seeing that much grille in one place

A lot of those 10 speed issues are the same issues the toyota 8 speed had when it launched. It took at least 2 years to get it fixed and at least Toyota "secretly" offered a transmission ecu reflash.

How do you build a 130,000$ luxury vehicle and put a low end stereo in it? Watching this channel, it becomes clear that consumers don't seem to care about the audio experience anymore. As someone who does care, I am glad that you guys take the time to mention audio in your reviews.

Some guys in the Middle East are definitely already working on a V8 swap for this thing.

You guys are honest and awesome. Great content.

Always great and thoughtful reviews:)! For now I’ll keep my 2019 LX. Oh!…the vehicle I own goes off road twice a week.

I bought one and absolutely love it. To each there own. Im very happy with mine.

I was very impressed with it, but hearing now that it is $130,000, I’m at the very least disappointed with it

I wish the US would receive the more simplistic Land Cruiser. I would love one of those especially with a diesel, and I wouldn’t feel bad about throwing a surf board on the roof.

Great review, interesting the point made a few times about some brands making disposable vehicles. A video comparing build quality, price and buyer would be interesting. If you sit in a 2010 Lexus LX everything is tight and more importantly functions as intended even at 200,000 miles and several owners. A 2010 Escalade not only feels really cheap with creaks, rattles etc, but will most certainly be falling apart at 200,000 miles. I feel the same about a 2022 Escalade, although the Lexus is more modest the Escalade will feel dated/cheap in 2032. .

Good conversation you all had about this vehicle. It was like you gentleman wanted to protect this vehicles points and mostly it's good points.

Unbelievably objective, fair and honest review ... excellent job

Another top quality video. We should all be thankful that mark and Jack put the time and effort that they do into making this type of content.

I’d still buy one, albeit not the ultra luxury version.

I don’t think people give enough consideration to the audio testing done by this channel. Since so much time in my car is listening to music as I drive real testing of how that will sound is important to me. Thanks Mark and Jack for doing this when other channels treat sound quality in such a cursory manner.

I love your videos. Now I love more, since you've a good taste for music too, as showed in 3'41

6:40 love the engineer test notes haha.

Love the notorious big reference, he had a lexus lx45-- the earliest predecessor to the lx600

You guys are honest and awesome.

Great points on this review👍🏻

The land cruiser has lockers front, center and rear. Just Lexus said no to them so it isn't in the states. You CAN however order them and they fit right in since they are factory components. This is the same thing that happened with the prior gen, it had more goodies in japan but they wouldn't send the best version to the states.

Thank you for that review... 👌

The US Army has some T72s a few states away. Would love to see you guys do a tongue in cheek review of one

Thank you for testing the audio system

I was certain the thumbnail was photoshopped… I’ve never been more disappointed to be wrong

It's unbelievable that in this day and age, with that much real estate available inside, that the interior design and utility are so disjointed and lack luster. No design language on the inside, and a loud, shouting one outside

Great Video Guys. keep it up !!

At 3:00, Jack is hittin the 🙏 with his feet. #Blessed

Everyone lost their minds on how amazing the tundra/sequoia/LX redesign was, but tbh when I saw this I saw rushed and half assed in all 3 vehicles. So many things were afterthought or last minute changes, I can almost guarantee we have an emergency refresh on at least the two SUVs for 2023, but we could see one for the tundra too

It's always reliability. That's the only reason people go with an lx. The car has always been behind everywhere else.

Great video guys!

loved the fact that u played hypnotize by biggie haha, the first thing that came to my mind when I saw this video on my front page

The top of the center stack does actually look like an afterthought, there is better integration in 25k cars

Mark was definitely a takumi samurai in one of his past lives.

Great video guys

Great review. Not sure who this car is for - but you provide a full persective.

I saw a tundra with 8,000km where the timing chain snapped. Yea I’d wait a few years before I’d buy a truck with this engine lol.

The new Turbos in the Tundra are imploding. It’s all over the Interwebs.

That was some great commentary and thoughtful consideration of things buyers will be considering when looking at this sort of SUV.

Enjoyed the video, but more importantly Patagonia is having a winter clearance sale right now. Just figured I'd give you a heads up.

It’s not for everyone. We are welcoming a new lx600 to the family at the end of this month at the price of $111k. We are keeping our old 2013 lx570 which has had zero issues. We have also owned a 2001 lx470 which was traded towards the 2013, also had zero issues. Lexus has always felt dated in terms of technology, but we don’t mind it. Is it overpriced? Yes, but most cars are nowadays. We keep our vehicles long term, and we don’t care about fancy bells and whistles. Hopefully the new lx will be as reliable as the others have been. Resale value is also nice, but that doesn’t matter to us since we keep ours for the long haul.

Anybody noticed the vehicle temp gauge is different almost every time the shot is at the cluster while they are driving?

Can't believe you wrote the "Players Only" Dead Sea scroll! I'm a big fan!

Well done presentation..

Mark has an X7, but no review of it on the channel? Love to get Mark and Jack's take on the 3-row BMW.

That Twin turbo V6 got a rough start in the Tundra and Sequoia. Hope it fares better in the LX.

It’s a tank, they know they are only going to sell 5k of them a year, it’s just to keep the 200 series customers with Toyota/lexus. They got me with it. Love mine.

Love the Notorious BIG call out/ Easter egg

Also, you guys did a swell job with this one. I feel like the production value and discussion are 120 percent of the usual premium offering. You took the time.

This is by far my favorite auto review channel, thanks guys great work. i would love to see in the future motorcycle in-depth reviews and 2nd hand cars etc with going into what normally wears or breaks how to fix which model years are worth the money or to avoided. I saw on your live Q and A that you were short some cash, maybe you could start buying used cars and doing them up to sell while documenting the journey could be fun for you and it would be interesting to watch. then you could have content for expensive cars and affordable cars. whatever happens good luck and thanks for everything you've done so far.

I have 2016 lx570 I love the suv no issue so far except fuel mileage trunk space

Few years ago I test drove LX560. I was surprised how small it was inside. My wife 5ft 2in and while in the rear seat for like 10 minutes she felt it was too small of space even for her. I am thinking this might be the same.

No locking diffs or disconnecting sway bars? What if I want to drive over a curb out of the Arby's parking lot.

Needs a bigger grille

You guys are awesome. Keep up the good work

Yup really nailed the issues with the infotainment screen integration.

I am trading in my 17 4Runner for this in premium trim next week. Buying it because it is build in Japan in the same factory as the LC. It will outlast all its competitors by decades. The grill is polarizing but actually works and blends well when you see the car in flesh.

Great videos guys. I don’t get any hate from you two just very honest and a great understanding of this vehicle. I agree on the point that this type of vehicle has reached its max potential. It’s still a excellent product for body on frame. Great engine and interior build quality that lags behind no one. I love the body yet modern design of this vehicle. The rear end design is very good

Best RU-vid car review channel.

Are these still tight feeling against your outboard elbow? The previous LX 570 and Land Cruiser always felt like my left elbow didn't have enough room.

Why does the front end of this thing remind me of Cylons from the original Battlestar Galactica?

The biggest flaw in the 2022 LX is that it will be a very low distribution model unlike the 80, 100, and 200 series Land Cruisers and LXs. Toyota might sell a couple thousand a year. Instead of being a vibrant parts market, after a few years parts will be impossible to find.

Love this car, ordered one myself.

When I send my porter down to the dealer to spec one of these out what is the option code to have it arrive with a Mark sitting behind the driver so I can recline and enjoy a blissful snooze while he lectures me about not being able to move his seat?

Really good, fair review. I share a lot of the same concerns. I have the 2016 model, and it's tough as nails, yet supremely luxurious. The European options aren't even close when it comes to durability and resale value. I wished they would have done more to update the LX600 (panoramic sunroof, power rear sunshades, fully adjustable rear seats), and I don't see any value in upgrading my current model with this one. Maybe the mid-cycle refresh will improve things some.

Oh damn, I must have missed what happened with the Volvo. Great review Mark

I love the way the dirt got retained on the body of the car.

I love the trump for the comfort and the reliability but the grill is a bit much. Please do a full review on the Toyota sequoia. I like your commentary on vehicles.

We have had to already replace turbos on a Tundra of course under warranty.

Somehow I think these new Toyota trucks just seem underdone. They don’t give off the air that they are the bulletproof machines they used to be. My neighbor has a 10 year old Land Cruiser with the 5.7 liter V8 and I wouldn’t hesitate to get one of those over this. That seems like a forever vehicle. Time will tell on this and the new Tundra.

The only thing I've ever put in the door cubby is my checkbook and a knife. I've never used it for water. Thats what the cupholders are for. Is it common that people use the door instead of the cupholder?

Hi sir May I ask you some questions which one is the drive between lx570 and lx600 . Thanks Thanks thanks Best regards Chivse

The Straight Pipes review said the audio system slaps harder than Will Smith, so it's interesting to see your opinion on it (may have been a different version?). What I love about you guys is that you're not afraid to call out when a company is resting on its laurels...which this vehicle seems to be. Lexus knows they'll sell a million of them anyway, so why do better? Mind you, that's the same attitude the Americans automakers had in the 60's and 70's, and look how that worked out for them.

Love 600 body shape 😍

You got the executive package but reviewed it like it was the 3 row. Overall I think the review was valuable.

2022 Lexus LX600 will do well in its intended market ... Further refinement to interior would make LX600 more competitive ... Slainte' ! Cheers !

We have a 2005 LX 470 with 240k miles and I love this thing with a blacked out grill and the 18 inch wheels. It is basically the most capable longest lasting luxury SUV available.

Can we get a video about the Volvo’s issues?

No electronic lockers??? Why? On previous models(07 GX470 here), the engines cut power when the electronic lockers are not activated and the tires sense slippage. Does that mean this new generation will cut power when it senses wheel slippage? How can you off road if this is the case or even drive in deep snow? Does anyone know?

Is this the land cruiser stand in? Will there be a hybrid with better mpg?

I want to gouge out my eyes... I can't unsee this..

I don’t know why they give these to reviewers with the executive package with the goody rear seats. I guarantee less than 10% of these will ship with that. It doesn’t even have a 3rd row. Good review!

I've grown to love Lexus

Is the grille large enough to buldoze pesky pesants out of left lane to settle in for 50mph cruise?

The turbo engine is going to kill long term reliability. Even engine oil goes through higher stress due to LSPI.

My family has been with Lexus for 20 plus years. But this LX 600? Sorry Lexus. You could've done better with design based on its own pricing. I would buy 2 GX460 for this price.

Every one I’ve seen is around 110k. Haven’t seen a single one under 100k. Coming from a last gen Escalade. This thing feels so much nicer in terms of build quality.

That grille is the absolute sickest.
