Push button ignition

Does Lexus have any plans on implementing the push button ignition on any other models other than the IS? Will the LX or any other SUVs have it in their line up in the future?

GS has it

i am sure it's not too far off for the SUVs, it's just a matter of time, probably at the next redesign (which shouldn't be too long for the LX).

What I've heard is that all vehicles will get Smart Access and Push Button Start with every major redesign. The reason the LS has Smart Access but no Push Button is because the conventional key and ignition were implemented in the 2001 redesign.

The new GS and IS have them as stated.
And as stated, it makes sense for every Lexus to gain this feature. Even the new Avalon has it now.
