Capability
When properly equipped, the LX can tow up to 8,000 pounds, which makes it capable of hauling large campers, boat trailers, and adventure equipment across California's diverse landscape. The GA-F platform beneath the LX strengthens body rigidity while improving on-road handling through redesigned cab mount cushions that reduce low-frequency vibrations. Active Height Control (AHC) and Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) come standard across all models, providing seamless balance between off-road capability and highway refinement. The suspension adapts to conditions automatically, smoothing out rough terrain while minimizing body roll during spirited highway driving.
You get Multi-Terrain Select with nine different modes split between high range (Auto, Dirt, Sand, Mud, Deep Snow) and low range (Auto, Sand, Mud, Rock) to optimize drive power, brake pressure, and suspension control. Crawl Control operates at five selectable speeds when engaged in low range, and the Overtrail grade adds electronically controlled front and rear locking differentials along with 33-inch all-terrain tires on 18-inch wheels, transforming the LX into an even more capable overlanding platform. Multi-Terrain Monitor uses four cameras to display underfloor, front, side, and rear views on the 12.3-inch screen, which helps drivers position the vehicle precisely on challenging trails.
Interior
The LX offers a cabin where luxury meets function across three rows of seating. The driver-focused cockpit places all essential controls within easy reach, including the new electroshiftmatic system, the first electronic shifter ever fitted to a Lexus off-road four-wheel drive vehicle. Front seats feature optimized lumbar support and side bolsters that minimize fatigue. Semi-aniline leather trim is available on Luxury, F SPORT Handling, and Ultra Luxury models, but all grades receive heated and ventilated front seats.
The second row accommodates three passengers on a 60:40 split-folding bench that incorporates a one-motion tumble system for convenient third-row access. When equipped with the third row, power-folding rear seats split 50:50 and fold completely flat at the touch of a button. The LX 700h hybrid models receive a unique shelf system in the cargo area due to battery placement, along with a standard center console cool box and rear manual sunshades.
Material quality throughout the cabin reflects flagship status, with choices between Palomino, White/Peppercorn, Circuit Red, Black, and Stone Brown interior colors. Trim finishes include Brown Open-Pore Wood, Black Open-Pore Wood, Hadori Aluminum, and Takanoha Wood depending on grade selection. The Ultra Luxury grade elevates rear passenger comfort through specially crafted VIP seating with curved headrests, enhanced cushioning, and a rear control panel. Front seats on Luxury and Ultra Luxury models offer five massage options across five intensity levels.
Exterior
The 2026 LX presents a "Dignified Sophistication" design philosophy that merges aesthetic presence with functional performance. A cab-backward design pulls the front A-pillars rearward to create a stout, muscular torso that expresses dynamic capability. The signature spindle grille features a three-dimensional frameless structure composed of seven sets of floating bars, each precisely tuned in thickness to provide optimal cooling for the twin-turbo engine. It comes with side radiator grilles that incorporate large openings shaped to deliver high-level airflow.
You get L-shaped clearance lamps with daytime running function and along the sides, and a full-size spare tire across all LX models. The SUV has seven exterior colors including Eminent White Pearl, Atomic Silver, Manganese Luster, Nori Green Pearl, Caviar, Ultra White, and Earth. Wheel designs range from 20-inch alloys on Premium models to exclusive 22-inch forged aluminum wheels on F SPORT Handling variants.
Technology and Safety
Every 2026 LX comes equipped with the advanced Lexus Interface system, featuring a standard 12.3-inch upper touchscreen and an LX-exclusive 7-inch lower display for climate controls and Multi-Terrain Select. Cloud Navigation with Google points-of-interest data and the Intelligent Assistant with "Hey Lexus" voice commands come standard, along with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, eight USB-C charging ports, Remote Connect through the Lexus app, a Head-Up Display, and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control. An available 25-speaker Mark Levinson® Premium Surround Sound system delivers immersive, concert-quality audio throughout the cabin.
Safety is handled by standard Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, which includes Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Risk Avoidance Emergency Steer Assist, All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, and Lane Tracing Assist. Additional technologies such as Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and Braking, Intuitive Parking Assist with Auto Braking, Traffic Jam Assist, Front Cross-Traffic Alert, Lane Change Assist, and Safe Exit Alert provide comprehensive protection and confidence in all driving conditions.
