Lexus Trademarks LX600, More Power on the Way?

The LX is the oldest SUV and/or crossover in the automaker's lineup, but there are signs that's about to change.

I don't see them bumping the displacement... I'd guess turbo V6, but this baby is long overdue for a redesign.

It may be to you "long overdue", but consider the number of years between major series changes...not just face lifts...

When they came up with the LS500 it was not because of a displacement bump, but a hybrid system. That is my guess where the 600 comes from. A LX with some kind of hybrid system.

Hybrid makes the most sense, actually.

Makes sense...you're off road 40-50 miles from the nearest paved road. Probably no charger stations.

Given the Land Cruiser has the same changes with or prior to the LX, what about the non-North American market for the new Series 300?

North America is a drop in the bucket v. world wide sales.
