Soft ride with Lots of body roll here. No KDSS as a result of the cost cutting-big loss imho. No hvac physical buttons. Screens cheapen everything. Hate the eyesight monitoring system. Would love to see the real world mpg. Would love to see a driving comparison to the GX460 both on and off-road. Shame about the engine V-6 vibration and doesn’t sound particularly refined, which some reviewers noted on other models using this drivetrain. On the positive side it looks good, rides soft and is going to be very good off road and for towing. This will sell very well based on the looks alone. Now curious to see how the LC with the hybrid drives. Best review of the GX550 yet.

I love the design inside and out. What surprised me watching the video was the engine sounded very coarse, like 4 cylinder and not what I would expect from a 6 cylinder, especially Lexus. Also, the interior sounded kind of loud but it is hard to say without measuring instruments (wait for the car confections KZitem channel review). The paddle shifters is silly to me for this vehicle because I personally or most luxury vehicle buyers never use them. However, new design looks refreshing and promising. Maybe Luxury hybrid trim will be quieter and smoother than this trim.
