I am interested in the subject vehicle and can't find much detail online. There may not be much available, but I thought I would check for any suggestions. I am also interested in the release date. Thanks!
All mostly rumors right now, but given the latest releases and some of the "hints" already located in the underbody of the current LX there is a very good chance this goes Hybrid at minimum, also could see a PHEV option as well.
Needs to move up a bit and potentially get a unique powertrain option given the new GX550
These are current options available on the new GX550 and not on the flagship LX600.
-Hybrid powertrain
-massaging front seats.
- Lexus safety Connect 3.0(currently 2.5 on LX600)
-Digital rearview mirror

If anything, only the 2 row luxury version will get the hybrid powertrain. The platform layout is nearly identical the the GX/LC 250, and those vehicles are not available with a third row and hybrid because of the placement of the hybrid battery.
Doubt they will go hybrid on the 300/600. I think that extra space is for an extra fuel tank option on the 300?
Bet we will see some exterior and interior aesthetic changes mid model in the next couple years.
I really doubt they go hybrid. Hybrid tundras aren’t selling. The hybrid powertrain is more for towing and aiding the powertrain between shifts and when the turbos spool. At most you get 2 mpg increase. It’s not worth the cost and added complexity.
