2007 New York Auto Show: Lexus LX 570

There have been a number of spy shots of the all-new Toyota Land Cruiser on the Net, so news that Lexus will debut the new LX 570 at the 2007 New York Auto Show should not be a surprise. Obviously the new name suggests that it will be getting the Tundra's 5.7 engine.

The question I have is will Toyota also debut the Land Cruiser at NY? Stay tuned...

OMG, new styling after 10years....
 
When is the NY Autoshow? I'm hoping to see the Honda Accord Sedan "concept" and the GS-F

I'm wondering if the LX will have a few more gear ratios than the Tundra. Of course, six is fantastic, but the LS has eight...

Interesting observation. The question whether the 8-speed LS tranny is up to SUV rigors? It would certainly drop the unit cost per tranny by spreading it around to a few other models.

I wonder how much of a dent this will make in the myth of Toyota being a "green" company?

I doubt it will have any affect whatsoever on Toyota's green image, at least not with those who currently believe it's true. They already rationalize the existance of the hybrid models as proof of that belief, regardless of the trucks and SUVs Toyota makes and the associated environmental impact of them.

The outgoing V8 was actually very "dirty", i.e. emissions and fuel economy were already rated very poorly. This bigger engine will be no worse, in fact on the emissions side it will very likely be a lot better.

Economy of the 5.7 is also better than the 4.7 , just drive a Tundra! Im sure my mother will enjoy the new LX570 as she has a 2002 LX470. To this day Im still amazed how well built her LX is......its like a tank!

saw the new LX 570 on the ny auto show website. Looks nice but those taillights on the back look ugly. Still waiting to see if Toyota will showcase the new Sequoia at the autoshow.

The new LX570 is almost stunning, despite the FJcruiserish rear lights and too-low lisence plate indent. Here are some amazing pics- click on an exterior shot for the exterior gallery, an interior shot for the interior gallery.
