Electrification has quietly arrived for the flagship SUV of the Lexus family. No pun intended.

After receiving its homologation documents from the LTO a few weeks ago, Lexus Philippines is now offering the 2025 Lexus LX700h to the market. Packing a more powerful and fuel-efficient powertrain, the hybrid LX is now the sole engine option as Lexus has phased out the non-hybrid LX600.

The new parallel hybrid powertrain combines a 3.5-liter, twin-turbo V6, an electric motor, and a nickel metal hydride battery to produce 457 PS and 790 Nm of torque. The transmission is still a 10-speed automatic with a full-time 4WD system.

Surprisingly, Lexus offers the 2025 LX700h in three variants – the Premier, the F Sport, and the four-seater VIP. The F Sport comes with sportier trims for the spindle grille, a gloss black finish for the 22-inch wheel, a flare red interior with special gauge graphics, and a 25-speaker sound system from Mark Levinson.

Meanwhile, the top-spec VIP gets special second-row seats that recline up to 48 degrees, with rear seat entertainment courtesy of an 11.6-inch LCD display. It also has 22-inch wheels as standard in a metallic finish. Lastly, all variants of the LX700h have Lexus Safety Sense as standard.

All variants of the LX700h are configurable via the Lexus Philippines website, but prices of the new hybrid SUV are as follows:

2025 Lexus LX700h Premier – PHP 11,218,000

2025 Lexus LX700h F Sport – PHP 11,548,000

2025 Lexus LX700h VIP – PHP 13,008,000
