All-New Lexus GX Details – Here’s What’s Included

gaycarboys - Alan Zurvas

Unless you’ve been under a rock, the biggest news from Lexus for this year is that the GX really is coming, and it will be here mid-year.

GX is large 4×4 SUV, the Lexus version of Toyota’s Land Cruiser Prado, a vehicle also having a rebirth this year. The GX gets a proper Lexus grille, a posher interior, yet retains all of the guts and glory Prado has a reputation for.

There are 3 GX trim levels: GX 550 Luxury, GX 550 Overtrail, and GX 550 Sports Luxury.

Lexus Australia Chief Executive John Pappas said the all-new GX is perfect for adventure-focused Lexus customers wanting a luxurious and tough SUV that can take the entire family deep into the outdoors.

“Lexus is dedicated to meeting the diverse needs of our customers, and the GX provides a seven-seat solution for families while offering fantastic turbocharged off-road performance,” Mr Pappas said.

“We are also delighted to offer the unique Overtrail grade for those wanting rugged off-road capability as the number one priority.”
