The 5.7L V8 will be the largest engine ever offered by Lexus, eclipsing in displacement even the 5.0L V8 producing 400 horsepower that will be used in the upcoming high-performance IS-F. We doubt the new LX 570 will produce as much as 400 horsepower, but expect something in the mid-300 horsepower range with torque even more abundant

My guess is that the 0-60 time will be around 6 sec. The LX570 will probably have the same hp as the Tundra, but weigh less. Maybe 5.9 sec?

Avalonman · 03-13-2007, 10:16 PM

^It would weigh more. Due to all of the goodies, and yea. Pretty much that.

Another thing: will the LX570 have L-finesse styling? I hope so.

Tundra 5.7L drinking regular #87 gas produces 381hp/401lb.ft already.

I believe Lexus can make it over 400hp using premium gas, even without direct injection.

But I think even 381hp/401lb.ft is very competitive right now and in a few years down the road.

read the remarks...some strong toyota.lexus haters....

Premium gas, direct injection, and a cold air intake. That would give the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 a run for its money!
