Interior: | 6.3 |
Although many rivals have been redesigned more recently and have fresher interiors, the LX 570's cabin is still quite nice, with plenty of premium materials. The first two rows of seats are fairly comfortable and provide plenty of room, but the third row is cramped. Cargo space is subpar for a luxury large SUV, and many competitors have more user-friendly infotainment systems.
The LX seats five people in two-row models and eight in three-row models. Leather upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, and power-sliding second-row seats are standard. Heated and ventilated first- and second-row seats are available, as is a heated steering wheel.
Despite lacking the range of adjustability that some rivals have, the front seats are comfortable and provide an excellent view of the road ahead. Most also think the second row is comfortable as well, and like the front seats, they provide plenty of head- and legroom. However, a few think the cushions could be higher off the floor. The third-row seats don't have as much room, and they're difficult to access. These seats are best left for kids, which is disappointing given the LX's size.
The LX has two complete sets of LATCH connectors for installing child safety seats in its second row. There are no LATCH connectors in the third row.
Standard features in the LX include a moonroof, quad-zone automatic climate control, and an infotainment system with a 12.3-inch display, the Lexus' Remote Touch controller, navigation, a nine-speaker audio system, satellite radio, HD Radio, USB ports, and Bluetooth.
The infotainment system's large screen has crisp graphics and can split different functions into multiple sections of the display. However, you have to use the Remote Touch Controller – a mouse-like device on the center console – to control the system. Overall, it's not an intuitive setup, and it's distracting and difficult to adjust settings while driving. On the bright side, there are physical controls for some functions.
Standard driver assistance features include a surround-view parking camera system, front and rear parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking.
Available features include a dual-screen rear-seat entertainment system, a 19-speaker Mark Levinson surround-sound system, wireless device charging, a head-up display, a cooled center console, and Lexus' Enform Remote, which lets you control some vehicle systems via a smartphone.
The two-row LX gives you 53.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and 81.3 cubic feet with them folded down. The three-row LX gives you 16.3 cubic feet behind the third row, 41.6 cubic feet with the third row folded, and 81.3 cubic feet with the second and third rows folded. These are below-average totals compared to other luxury large SUVs.
Instead of folding into the floor, the LX's third-row seats fold to the side. While that provides a flat cargo floor, it also reduces the width of the cargo hold. A power liftgate is standard, and three-row models come with power-folding third-row seats.
