Used 2007 Lexus LX
2007 Lexus LX Review
By KBB Editors
Updated January 28, 2025
Pros
Besides its obvious luxury trappings, the LX 470 is attractive to those who need seating for eight people but don’t want to drive something as massive as a Cadillac Escalade EXT or Infiniti QX56.
Cons
The LX 470’s age shows mostly in the body, doors and instrument panel design. Third-row passengers may find the legroom cramped and the cargo space skimpy. If you tow more than 6,500 pounds, this is not the SUV for you.
What's New?
No major changes for 2007.
Lexus’ oldest vehicle, the LX 470, rides on the same aging platform as the Toyota Land Cruiser. Despite the Lexus name, the LX 470 cannot be considered the pick of the premium luxury SUV litter. Its chassis is nowhere near as refined as those from Land Rover, Cadillac or Mercedes-Benz, nor is its V8 engine as powerful – unable to break the 300 horsepower barrier. On the flip side, the Lexus does come with a long list of standard amenities, has room for eight (although it’s helpful if three of them are somewhat small) and has an exemplary record of reliability and strong resale.

Driving the Lexus LX
The LX 470’s standard four-wheel-drive system is always engaged and employs a center differential to split power 50/50 front-to-rear. For steep grades or more treacherous terrain, you can switch the system to four-wheel low, locking the center differential and increasing the vehicle’s overall traction.
The gearbox also includes a downhill assist that keeps the vehicle from accelerating during steep descents. Even when you are motoring at highway speeds – a task made effortless by the marvelously smooth 4.7-liter V8 – a litany of advanced traction, stability and brake controls ensure that the LX 470 will do everything possible to get you and yours home safe and secure and in complete control.
Interior Comfort
The LX 470’s strongest interior feature is headroom. Front- and center-row passengers will find comfortable accommodations; however, third-row passengers have to squeeze into place and won’t find much room for stretching out.
Exterior Styling
The LX 470’s Land Cruiser roots are clearly evident even with all the Lexus additions. The LX’s tall greenhouse provides an unparalleled near-360-degree view, thanks in part to the narrow pillars.

Factory Options

Engine & Transmission
While the LX 470’s V8 is a smooth, quiet performer, its power and torque deliver adequate but not stellar acceleration and towing statistics. Fuel economy figures are no better than those of competitors touting far more powerful engines.
4.7-liter V8
268 horsepower @ 5400 rpm
328 lb.-ft. of torque @ 3400 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 13/17
