EXTERIOR

The Lexus LX 700h is undeniably the best-looking SUV from the North of Limpopo to the South of Sahara. No car comes close to this legend, which is largely driven by the mighty and wealthy in Kenya, hence seen as a status symbol. With such a car, you don’t need to get into a boardroom to be given the contract. Its presence and face value already win you the tender. Even the traffic police cannot dare to stop this car because of its magnificent demeanor and charming aura. People will always judge a book by its cover. Make sure the cover is the Lexus LX 700h. If you are shy of 5 million Kenyan shillings, you can safely land on the Toyota Land Cruiser 300 Series. 

The prominent spindle grille on the front fascia already signals this is no ordinary car. The ultra-compact triple-L-beam LED headlights & daytime running lights inject a signature appearance whether during the day or at night. The 22-inch alloy wheels uphold its expensive appearance on the side profile, as the rear features full-width style LED lighting and a large power liftgate. When discussing such a car, you don’t write a lot; you let the images and the appearance do the talking. I am told money loves silence. I want to stop here and be silent; I hope the money will locate me.

INTERIOR & TECHNOLOGY

The Lexus LX 700h interior is way above gorgeous, way above superb, way above good-looking. I can’t find the right word, but spectacular will do for now. The 700h is a private jet that failed to beat gravity because the cabin is absolutely stunning, comfortable, and now I understand why some people would sleep in their cars and not houses. 

For a premium and breathtaking look, semi-aniline leather, soft touches, ambient lighting, open-pore wood, aluminum trim, and premium carpeting have been incorporated. Its acquisition cost is not high for no reason; the potential buyer must be accorded state-of-the-art refinement.

Technology has not been overlooked; in fact, it has been over-emphasized. With a 12.3-inch upper touchscreen that handles navigation, audio, and the multi-terrain monitor, below it you have another 7-inch touchscreen whose sole purpose is climate control and vehicle drive settings. Now, when you add your new iPhone 18 Promax, you are really living the life. Once again, i am not allowed to write a lot because its customers don’t read everything.

PERFORMANCE: How Does it Handle Kenyan Roads?

The Lexus LX 700h is what it thinks it is. Kenyans really treat it as a town commuter vehicle, which is not bad, but it is a beast waiting to breathe out its dominance in off-road terrain. Let’s stick to paved roads. The steering is very light, power-assisted, and telescopic. The air suspension ensures you don’t feel the potholes as you drive to Kerarapon in Karen for a meeting with a potential investor. The cabin is properly insulated, preventing outside noises from Rongai matatus from causing discomfort.
