	The next generation '''LX570''' made ~~it's~~ debut at the 2007 New York Auto Show. The LX 570 os a complete redesign of the LX, and the first version of Lexus' largest SUV to premiere before its expected Land Cruiser counterpart. The LX 570 features an all-new 3UR-FE engine which is the most powerful engine ever developed by Toyota (and also used in the new Tundra). Total engine output is 381 horsepower and 401 ft.-lbs. of torque. The more powerful engine gives the LX an increased towing capacity of up to 8,500 pounds. The new engine is tied to a six-speed sequential-shift automatic transmission.		The next generation '''LX570''' made its debut at the 2007 New York Auto Show.

	The LX 450 was released in 1996 as Lexus' first entry into the SUV market. Unlike other Lexus efforts which were independently or divergently developed from Toyota vehicles, the LX 450 was almost entirely based on the sixth generation 80 series Toyota Land Cruiser. The LX 450 was brought to market as a rebadged model during the U.S.-Japan trade war of the mid-1990's. At the time, the U.S. government threatened to place 100% tariffs on all Japanese luxury import cars; by producing a luxury SUV, Lexus would have a model exempt from the tax. Ultimately however, a gentlemen's agreement was reached and the threatened tariffs did not materialize.		The LX 450 was released in 1996 as Lexus' first entry into the SUV market.
