Featuring a Tazuna cockpit, the behemoth is meant to dominate tarmac roads and command rough roads. Tazuna is the Japanese word for the reins of a horse.

Lexus vehicles have used this concept to depict the relationship of perfect control a master horse rider has with his horse.

It has a 3.3 litre diesel engine, four-wheel drive with anti-lock braking systems (ABS), and driveline traction control. It also has 7 leather seats with spacious legroom.

The luxury car is designed with a keyless ignition and automatic gear transmission and a twin-turbo V6 engine powers the vehicle. The car also has a height control that can automatically adjust the height for extra ground clearance.

Lexus 500d 2022 also has an intuitive parking assist that detects obstacles with a buzzer in the cockpit and shows the position of the obstacle to help the driver park well in those tight parking spots.

The car is made to convey elegance, and sophistry in motion. It is a powerful and responsive vehicle and has front and back cameras to help with moving, especially when it is dark and there’s bad weather.

The multi-million car was made with the driver and passengers in mind which is why the instruments and controls are made to achieve maximum comfort for them.

The Lexus 500d has a new shape, a greatly improved version of the LX series, and was made to set tongues wagging wherever it goes.

Arguably one of the most popular, Lexus cars in Kenya is the LX 570. It was the car of choice that President Ruto used during his nationwide campaign in the run-up to the August 2002 General Election.
