4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

[CRSKTN]

It looks to be the old one though. :^(

Exactly. Tell us it's a new LX without showing anything.

Also, he is implying hybridization for LX??

A mysterious vehicle with a 90-degree engine and a hybrid transmission...

This is not a piston position you will see in an Inline-4 engine.


What is Lexus trying to tell us?

 

[CRSKTN]

LX hybridized V8

 

[Levi]

no way! yesterday we came to the conclusion V8 was dead. the flip flopping on Lexus products is crazy from an outsider perspective.

Good call, I also mistook the battery pack in the rear for a hybrid battery. The LC500 has its 12V battery in the trunk. The transmission is also the regular Aisin 10-spd.

The 2nd screenshot is 2UR block.

Lexus did not tease anything we are not supposed to see.

Agree on that one

Any teaser was either for old products or new but not that huge overlap than the current

Creative311 is talking about a LX750h with a hybrid system pushing 480hp and 870Nm.

They also say it might come with a 17-inch infotainment and fingerprint start button.

 

[Levi]

Also LX 500d mentioned, obvious for Middle East and Russia.

The 750h clearly is TTV6 HEV and not PHEV.

 

[Deusex]

LX 750!? interesting. Anyone knows when Lexus is planning the unveiling?? Cant wait to see this one.

*Fingerprint start button is already in the new generation LC-J300

*Powerful hybrid system we already know that the LC-J300 power is 410hp / 650N.m without any electric motor so those number adding just 100hp electric motor is very much easy achievable

 

[Levi]

The electric motors clearly are the most powerful of any Toyota Hybrid. Battery will also be quite big for HEV.

 

[maiaramdan]

@Levi , from what been said by Creative311 the hp = 480 and the torque = 870Nm

with the same small motors in any hybrid system they can very easily reach those 70hp & 220Nm difference

Would Toyota over-strain the electric system for heavy duty?

 

[maiaramdan]

We heard about this system for the Tundra from long time ago

V6-3.5TT hybrid!

 

[ssun30]

870N.m is a lot for the 10AT to handle. The current unit is rated for 680N.m. If it really comes with such specs the Tundra hybrid will be very expensive.

 

[maiaramdan]

Maybe for the top GR or TRD Tundra, but sure that combination will be in next LX, SEQUOIA & TUNDRA maybe even in the GR LC-J300, next LS , LC , CROWN MJ & CENTURY

Lexus LX 750h Reportedly Has Twin-Turbo V6 Hybrid With 480 HP

New rumors from Japan are hinting at some possible powertrain details about the upcoming Lexus LX by citing info allegedly obtained from a dealer.

Like I said who needs a V8 when the TTV6 is pumping out numbers like that? It’s no slouch

are we sure it is the 10AUT and not a 4AUT with e-CVT that also makes it a "10" like LS/LC 500h?
