2025 Lexus LX: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2025 Lexus LX’s biggest change is the first-ever LX 700h, a 457-hp hybrid built around a twin-turbo V6. This is a meaningful lineup expansion rather than a full redesign.
About the 2025 Lexus LX
4th generation (all-new for 2022), fourth model year; first year for the LX 700h hybrid and Overtrail trim, before a major exterior refresh.
Lexus positions the LX as its flagship SUV: a full-size luxury vehicle with genuine body-on-frame toughness and real off-road hardware, not just a road-focused family crossover with upscale trim. Its core appeal is the mix of Land Cruiser-based durability, standard 4WD capability, quiet long-distance comfort, and high-end cabin materials and tech. In this class, the LX stands out most for buyers who want true trail capability and towing strength wrapped in Lexus craftsmanship and everyday ease of use.
The 2025 LX covers several roles: Premium is the core seven-seat luxury 4WD, F SPORT Handling is the more road-focused version, and Luxury emphasizes massage seats and premium audio. At the edges, the hybrid-only Overtrail brings front and rear locking differentials plus a skid plate, while the four-seat LX 700h Ultra Luxury focuses on rear-passenger comfort with an ottoman and massaging rear seats.
