While famous car enthusiasts in Vietnam choose to buy luxury SUVs such as Mercedes-AMG G 63, Range Rover Autobiography or SVAutobiography or Rolls-Royce Cullinan, tycoon Hoang Kim Khanh chooses less popular cars such as Bentley Bentayga, Cadillac Escalade,...

Recently, this tycoon continued to spend more than 10 billion VND to buy a Lexus LX 600. According to VietNamNet's research, the car is a VIP version, with a starting price of 9.61 billion VND. To roll with a Ho Chi Minh City license plate, the car owner must spend more than 10.5 billion VND. In addition, the car's license plate 51K-858.85 is an auction license plate, priced at 40 million VND on the auction website.

Lexus LX 600 was launched in the Vietnamese market from April 2022, including 3 versions: Urban (7 seats), F Sport (5 seats) and VIP (4 seats) with prices ranging from 8.1 to 9.21 billion VND. By May 2023, all 3 versions increased in price by 400 million VND. However, the appeal of this model is still quite large when private dealers "channel" from 1 to 2 billion VND depending on the car.

The Lexus LX 600 is developed on a separate chassis platform (body on frame), which helps increase rigidity by 20% but reduces weight by 200kg compared to the previous version LX 570. In addition, the new design of the car still retains its imposing appearance but is less muscular than the previous generation. All three versions are equipped with 22-inch wheels.

The interior of the Lexus LX 600 VIP version is still equipped with standard amenities such as two dual screens in the center position, electric power steering wheel, 14-way electric driver's seat with heating/cooling. The special feature of the VIP version is the rear row of seats including 2 independent seats, integrated massage function and separate entertainment system. The car's sound system uses Mark Levinson with 25 speakers.

Under the hood of the Lexus LX 600 is a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine that produces a maximum capacity of 409 horsepower and a maximum torque of 650 Nm. This machine is combined with a 2-wheel drive system and a 10-speed automatic transmission.

In addition to three luxury SUVs, tycoon Hoang Kim Khanh currently owns a number of supercars with a total value of more than 350 billion VND such as McLaren Senna, Lamborghini Aventador S, Ferrari SF90, Ferrari 488 Pista, Koenigsegg Regera, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Bentley Mulsanne,...
