 Flagship Lexus LX Just Got A Bit More F Sport For 2026

  • Lexus has introduced the 2026 LX, which features a handful of minor updates.
  • The LX 700h F Sport Handling gains a newly available F Sport Appearance Package.
  • Pricing climbs by $500 and customers will find two powertrains with up to 457 hp.

While the Lexus LS is on the way out, the range-topping LX SUV is getting a handful of updates for 2026. Prices are also climbing by $500 as the model now starts at $107,950.

Since there were big updates last year – in the form of a new hybrid powertrain and a rugged Overtrail trim – the changes are pretty minor for 2026. However, the LX 700h F Sport Handling offers a new F Sport Appearance Package.

The F Sport², if you will, embraces a two-tone aesthetic as it features additional body-color accents on the running boards and bumpers. They’re contrasted by black mirrors and a rear spoiler with black winglets.

The only other change appears to be a lightly revised color palette, which now includes Manganese Luster as an option on the Overtrail. It joins Atomic Silver, Caviar, Earth, Eminent White Pearl, Nori Green Pearl, and Ultra White.

Under the hood, the LX 600 features a familiar twin-turbo 3.4-liter V6 engine producing 409 hp (305 kW / 415 PS) and 479 lb-ft (649 Nm) of torque. It’s connected to a ten-speed automatic transmission and a four-wheel drive system.

Customers can also opt for the LX 700h, which has a hybridized powertrain consisting of a twin-turbo 3.4-liter V6, a nickel-metal hydride battery, and a ten-speed automatic transmission with an integrated electric motor. This increases the output to 457 hp (341 kW / 463 PS) and 583 lb-ft (790 Nm) of torque. Thanks to the extra oomph, the 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) time falls from 6.9 to 6.4 seconds.

However, customers expecting significant fuel savings will be out of luck. The city rating climbs from 17 mpg to 19 mpg, while the highway numbers are unchanged at 22 mpg. Likewise, the combined fuel economy rating only ticks up one point to 20 mpg.
