But, before we get on to that, let&#8217;s discuss the mechanical gubbins. Now, the little &#8216;d&#8217; in the nameplate means the big SUV is driven by diesel. And since this is the best Lexus has to offer, it isn&#8217;t a piddly four-pot or a V6. It&#8217;s the full-fat 4.5-litre V8 engine producing 265PS of power and 650Nm of torque. Here&#8217;s some perspective &#8211; the torque figure is 50Nm more than the fastest car to lap the Nurburgring, the Huracan Performante<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the big Lexus has nearly thrice the weight to lug around as well. It&#8217;s unabashedly heavy, tipping the scales at 3350kg. Power is sent to all four wheels through a 6-speed automatic transmission. Lexus also claims that the LX450d will return 9.6kmpl. We will take that with a pinch (or packet?) of salt, though<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/lexus-lx-450d-priced-rs-2-32-crore\/lexus-lx450d-price-rs-232-crore-zigwheels-india-m1_720x540\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-24304\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/lexus-lx450d-price-rs-232-crore-zigwheels-india-m1_720x540.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24304\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/lexus-lx450d-price-rs-232-crore-zigwheels-india-m1_720x540.jpg 720w, http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/lexus-lx450d-price-rs-232-crore-zigwheels-india-m1_720x540-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>By now, you must&#8217;ve figured out that the Lexus&#8217; mantra is &#8216;go big or go home&#8217;. Gargantuan is possibly an understatement to describe the size of this thing. At 5080mm x 1980mm x 1865mm (l x w x h) &#8211; it is 285mm longer and 125mm wider than a Toyota Fortuner &#8211; something we consider to be a big SUV. It is based on the Toyota Land Cruiser (which we hear has just set a world record) and the overtones are hard to miss. But, there are unmistakably Lexus elements that include the massive front grille, all-LED headlamps with the trademark L-shaped daytime running lamp, and the LED tail lamps. And, while we&#8217;d have loved to see the gorgeous 20-inch wheels that other markets get, the 18-inch wheels are definitely more pothole-friendly. On a related note, there&#8217;s air suspension on all four corners to make sure you don&#8217;t feel any of them.<\/p>\n<p>As one would expect of a Lexus, there are leather and wood trimmings everywhere and a bucket load of tech to go along with it. Highlights include a moonroof, four-zone climate control, electric adjust for the front seats and the steering wheel (with memory) and wireless charging. Then there&#8217;s the 12.3-inch touchscreen paired with a 19-speaker Mark Levinson audio system, and the rear screens that should keep the seth ji happy.<\/p>\n<p>ike most things Japanese, Lexus is known for its bullet-proof reliability. The LX is expected to be no different. As a matter of fact, the manufacturer is offering a 3 year \/ 100,000 km warranty on the big SUV. Yes, Rs 2.32 Crore is a hell lot of money. But, you can&#8217;t really put a price on peace of mind, can you? It looks like Lexus has, though<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lexus&#8217; range-topping LX can be yours for Rs 2.32 Crore (ex-showroom, Delhi).
