What Changed

Like its counterpart the Toyota Land Cruiser, the premium LX570 SUV is all-new for 2008. Although the wheelbase is the same, the new LX570 is longer and taller than the model it replaces. The big change us under the hood where a 5.7L V8 has replaced last year's 4.7L V8 boosting horsepower by over 100 hp to 383 hp.
