Lexus LX 600 F SPORT

How it looks when you see on the street: This full size SUV gets a fresh-faced look and name plate for the 2022 model year on what was once the 570. It’s built on sister brand Toyota’s Tundra truck platform, which adds to its sturdy and stiff form. It has the full Lex treatment on all of its edges, which makes it a more posh affair to validate its six-figure pricepoint.

How it makes you feel when you get in: The LX has upgraded its in cabin experience with better materials that zhjuz things up.  Kids loved the backseat, which delivers on the promise of an upscale interior. We drove it to Storm King, north of New York City. In the city the LX’s sheer proportions seemed overwhelming, but upstate it worked in a more rural environment.

How it drives: There’s something yachty about the LX. It’s powered by a 3.4 liter V6 that makes 409 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque, which makes it more powerful but still more efficient than years past.

Space for people and things: Despite the appearance of fanciful proportion, interior space could me more thoughtful.

Best Features: We love the Mark Levinson audio system.

How much does it cost: Our test model was the F-Sport, priced around $100,000.
