2021 Lexus LX570

Exterior and interior: Finished in Black Onyx, this 2021 Lexus LX 570 Inspiration Series carries an unmistakably stealthy presence. The Inspiration Series package adds a host of exclusive black exterior details, including black 21-inch wheels, black grille accents, smoked lighting elements, black roof rails, black chrome trim, and exclusive badging that give the traditionally elegant LX a much more aggressive and contemporary personality. Despite its premium presentation, the LX remains highly functional, retaining its full-size SUV practicality, commanding ride height, and genuine off-road capability beneath the luxury veneer. Inside, the cabin reflects Lexus’ signature approach to craftsmanship and comfort. The exclusive black and Rioja Red-accented semi-aniline leather interior immediately distinguishes this Inspiration Series from ordinary LX 570s, while the Luxury Package adds heated and ventilated front and second-row outboard seating, four-zone climate control, and premium trim materials throughout. Convenience and technology features include a head-up display, wireless charging, cool box, heated espresso wood-and-leather steering wheel, and the superb Mark Levinson 19-speaker, 450-watt Reference Surround Sound System. Even by modern standards, the cabin remains exceptionally comfortable, solidly built, and unmistakably upscale. Engine: At the heart of this 2021 Lexus LX 570 Inspiration Series sits Lexus’ venerable 5.7-liter naturally aspirated V8, producing smooth, effortless power delivery that prioritizes refinement and durability over forced-induction theatrics. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and a full-time all-wheel-drive system, the LX delivers confident all-weather performance while retaining the serious off-road DNA inherited from its Land Cruiser platform sibling. Advanced systems such as adaptive variable suspension, active height control, crawl control, and multi-terrain select make this far more than just a luxury cruiser—it remains one of the most capable full-size SUVs ever engineered. What makes the LX 570 especially compelling today is its analog honesty: a naturally aspirated V8, body-on-frame construction, and proven mechanical engineering in a segment increasingly dominated by more complex alternatives.
