, it’s possible that Lexus may decide to start selling its offroad version of the Lexus LX 600 in the near future.

The Lexus LX 600 steps up its game
Known officially as the Lexus LX 600 Offroad, this Japanese-exclusive SUV offers a stunning combination of luxury and performance. Though there are few mechanical changes to the vehicle, it comes with some added features that the conventional LX 600 lacks, including:

Carbon-fiber-reinforced tire arches

The engine puts out over 400 horsepower and almost 500 lb-ft of torque.
While the LX 600 Offroad may only be a way for Lexus to experiment and collaborate with aftermarket supplier JAOS, Lexus LX 600 owners have the option to outfit their conventional LX 600 with similar parts, but they’ll need to hunt wisely.
