Verified vehicle record
2026 Lexus LX
Car and Driver says after seeing two of its five trims knocked off the lineup last year, the nonhybrid LX enters 2026 unchanged, with a 409-hp twin-turbo 3.4-liter V6 and 10-speed automatic. MSRP runs $108,550-$117,550. MotorTrend says the LX700h hybrid version of that V6 makes 457 hp and 538 lb-ft, but says wobbly handling and gradual acceleration aren't very satisfying and the hybrid powertrain doesn't do much to help fuel economy or performance, preferring other luxury three-row SUVs and Lexus's own, less expensive GX; MotorTrend lists top-ranked competitors as the Cadillac Escalade, Rivian R1S, Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class.

What changed for 2026
Car and Driver (opens in a new tab) says after seeing two of its five trims knocked off the lineup last year, the nonhybrid LX enters 2026 unchanged.
Pricing and powertrain for 2026
Car and Driver (opens in a new tab) lists MSRP at $108,550-$117,550. Engine: a 409-hp twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V-6. Transmission: a 10-speed automatic.
MotorTrend (opens in a new tab) says the LX600 makes 409 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque through a 10-speed automatic and standard full-time four-wheel drive, reaching 60 mph in 6.7 seconds in MotorTrend testing; the LX700h uses a hybrid version of that V-6 to produce 457 hp and 538 lb-ft, again with a 10-speed and four-wheel drive.
How it compares to its closest rivals
MotorTrend (opens in a new tab) says wobbly handling and gradual acceleration aren't very satisfying, and the hybrid powertrain doesn't do much to help fuel economy or performance; within the snug interior, tech and materials pale against segment standards. MotorTrend says it much prefers other luxury three-row SUVs, and the less expensive GX in Lexus's own lineup; MotorTrend lists top-ranked competitors as the Cadillac Escalade, Rivian R1S, Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class.

Record summary
What to know first
LX 600 (409 hp) covers Premium, F Sport Handling and Luxury; LX 700h (457 hp) is exclusive to Ultra Luxury and Overtrail. Ultra Luxury seats four with second-row captain's chairs instead of the standard seven.
Model-year note
The Ultra Luxury and Overtrail are LX 700h-only trims, and the Premium is LX 600-only, so output depends on which powertrain a trim carries.
