2026 Lexus GX Review, Pricing, and Specs
Overview The Lexus GX is now a thoroughly modern luxury off-roader, sharing much with the recently downsized Toyota Land Cruiser. But while the LC uses a hybrid four-cylinder for motivation, the GX gets a 349-hp twin-turbo V-6 engine backed by a four-wheel-drive system with a low range. Creature comforts abound in all versions of the Lexus, while the Overtrail is set up for the most serious off-roading. One compromise of the off-road-ready Overtrail trims is the loss of the available third-row seat, limiting the passenger count to five. That said, the GX's rearmost row is pretty tight, so you may not miss it all that much. What's New for 2026? There are no major changes expected for the GX this year. Pricing and Which One to Buy The price of the 2026 Lexus GX is expected to start around $66,000 and go up to $82,000 depending on the trim and options. Premium $66,000 (est) Premium+ $70,000 (est) Overtrail $73,000 (est) Luxury $78,000 (est) Overtrail+ $81,000 (est) Luxury+ $82,000 (est) The GX550 has two personalities: luxury on-roader and trail-conquering off-roader. For buyers who plan on spending the majority of their time on asphalt, we'd suggest the Luxury trim, as it classes up the GX550's interior with plenty of nice-to-have features, including semi-aniline leather upholstery; 10-way-adjustable front seats with massage, heat, and ventilation; illuminated door sill plates; and second-row window shades. It also comes with the bigger 22-inch wheels that better fill the GX's large wheel wells for a more upscale look. For a bit more, the Overtrail+ trim provides a more rugged appearance and significantly more capability for off-roading, but the compromise is that it eliminates the GX's third row of seats and some of the luxury items listed above. But if you're planning outdoor adventures that include traversing challenging terrain, the Overtrail is well worth consideration. Engine, Transmission, and Performance A twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V-6 engine that makes 349 horsepower is standard in the GX550. A 10-speed automatic is also standard, and all models come with four-wheel drive. Overtrail and Overtrail+ trims are decked out with more off-road goodies than the other models, including 18-inch wheels with 33-inch all-terrain tires, an aluminum skid plate, an adaptive suspension system with more wheel articulation, a crawl-control feature, and selectable drive modes for differing terrains. The GX550 feels punchy off the line, but on the highway we noticed a disconcerting amount of hood flutter. The ride is fairly stiff, especially on the available upsized wheels. Steering is crisp, but the GX's handling is about what you'd expect for the tall, boxy SUV, meaning there's plenty of body roll. The Overtrail shines off-road; outward visibility is excellent, which is especially handy when navigating tight trails. We confirmed as much in an off-road-oriented comparison test. The transfer case allows the driver to select the low-range gearset without locking the center differential, which allows for a tighter turning radius, and the Electronic Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (E-KDSS) can disconnect the front or rear anti-roll bars independently of one another to help improve stability, reduce head toss, and increase traction over rough terrain. 0–60-MPH Times At our test track, a GX550 Premium hit 60 mph in a respectable 6.2 seconds. That's a full second quicker than the previous-generation GX managed at our track. It's also quicker than the Land Cruiser's 7.7-second effort. View Photos Michael Simari | Car and Driver Towing and Payload Capacity The GX550 can tow up to 9096 pounds, which far exceeds the previous-gen GX460's 6500 pounds as well as the Land Cruiser's 6000-pound rating. The GX also tows more than luxury-brand rivals such as the Audi Q7 and the BMW X5. Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG The EPA hasn't released any fuel economy information for the 2026 GX yet, but the 2025 model earned ratings of 15 mpg city, 21 mpg highway, and 17 mpg combined. On our 75-mph highway route, the GX550 Premium we tested delivered on its 21-mpg estimate. The GX is well in arrears of the four-cylinder hybrid Land Cruiser's EPA numbers: 22 mpg city and 25 mpg highway. For more information about the GX's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website. Interior, Comfort, and Cargo Despite the GX's rugged exterior styling, luxurious environs await you once you climb aboard. Faux- or genuine-leather upholstery is available in a variety of colors, and Overtrail variants offer faux-suede accents in a dark green shade. Premium and Luxury trims have three rows of seats with space for up to seven with the standard second-row bench; a pair of captain's chairs is optional and brings the seating capacity down to six. Third-row space is severely limited, however; the Lexus TX crossover has a big advantage here. Overtrail models skip the third row altogether and seat five, but the middle passenger's foot room is compromised by the plastic base of the center console. A cooled storage bin, a head-up display, and a digital key fob are all available as options. In our testing, the GX550 Overtrail swallowed 18 carry-on-sized boxes behind the second-row seat and 33 with the rear seats folded, but the cargo floor is high off the ground making it awkward to load heavy items. View Photos Michael Simari | Car and Driver Infotainment and Connectivity All GX models come with a 14.0-inch infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a separate 12.3-inch digital gauge display that can be reconfigured to show a variety of information to the driver. Nearly all climate controls are in the touchscreen. Most models have six USB-C ports spread throughout the interior, but Overtrail and Overtrail+ models get just four; a wireless smartphone charging pad is optional and positions the phone up and at an angle. A 10-speaker stereo is standard, but audiophiles can upgrade to a 21-speaker Mark Levinson surround-sound system. Safety and Driver-Assistance Features The GX comes equipped with a suite of driver-assistance features that includes automated emergency braking, pedestrian detection, and lane-departure warning. For more information about the GX's crash test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features include: Standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection Standard lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist Standard adaptive cruise control with a lane-centering feature Warranty and Maintenance Coverage When it comes to warranty coverage, Lexus outpaces rivals such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Limited warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles Powertrain warranty covers six years or 70,000 miles Complimentary maintenance is covered for one year or 10,000 miles Specifications Specifications 2024 Lexus GX550 Premium Vehicle Type: front-engine, 4-wheel-drive, 7-passenger, 4-door wagon PRICE Base/As Tested: $64,250/$66,450 Options: head-up display, $900; traffic jam assist (power tilt-telescope steering column, driver attention monitor, lane change assist, front cross-traffic alert), $840; cold area package (heated steering wheel, windshield wiper de-icer, headlamp washer, fast-response interior heater), $350; tonneau cover, $110 ENGINE twin-turbocharged and intercooled DOHC 24-valve V-6, aluminum block and heads, port and direct fuel injection Displacement: 210 in3, 3445 cm3 Power: 349 hp @ 5200 rpm Torque: 479 lb-ft @ 2000 rpm TRANSMISSION 10-speed automatic CHASSIS Suspension, F/R: control arms/live axle Brakes, F/R: 13.9-in vented disc/13.2-in vented disc Tires: Yokohama Geolander X-CV G057 265/55R-20 113V Extra Load M+S DIMENSIONS Wheelbase: 112.2 in Length: 197.1 in Width: 78.0 in Height: 75.6 in Passenger Volume, F/M/R: 56/52/34 ft3 Cargo Volume, Behind F/M/R: 77/40/10 ft3 Curb Weight: 5517 lb C/D TEST RESULTS 60 mph: 6.2 sec 1/4-Mile: 14.7 sec @ 95 mph 100 mph: 16.5 sec Results above omit 1-ft rollout of 0.3 sec.

KC Hilites Platform One Is a Sleek Roof Rack With Power Integration
The latest car news, reviews, and features. KC Hilites has been a big off-road brand for decades—you've probably seen its signature yellow smiley-face-guy 'Daylighter' lamp covers at some point. These days, it's better known for high-end LEDs. But next month, it's launching a light-integrated roof rack system called 'Platform One' with an aerodynamic design and some cool features. I've already been sniffing around a Lexus GX to be my next exploration rig, and this rack having a fitment option for that truck is nudging me just a little. Nah, you're right, I'm too cheap to leap … but a boy can dream. Anyway, the KC Platform One was trotted out for the public at Overland Expo just a couple of weeks ago. There, company reps showed off a few vehicle fitments, calling out T-shaped track slots on the exterior, interior, and top to attach all kinds of accessories, plus an integratable power block for neat wire management. The side lights will have amber and white modes. What I really like about the rack's look is the long front wings that will let you integrate a bar of round lights, mounted much lower than most other racks would. KC Hilites There are already a handful of well-made and clean-looking racks out there, from companies like Prinsu and Front Runner (heck, some are even compatible with KC's lights), but I dig the way the Platform One seems to hang the lights a little farther forward over the windshield. The tall fascia on the side is a little novel, too—it has a somewhat aero look to it. I've run a few KC lights on my vehicles, and I've been happy with their performance and aesthetic. I crashed one directly into a rock at a hillclimb race last summer, and it still works. I like the brand's modern-take-on-old-school look. YouTuber Adventurous Way of Life uploaded a little walkaround with Taylor Ulrich from KC at last month's overland show to give you a better look: Or if you just want the cinematic sizzle reel: KC seems to be billing the 'system' functionality as the main value proposition here—Platform One promises tidy integration of lights, electronics, a solar charger, and whatever else you want to carry on your truck's head. Speaking of value, this rack's price won't be announced until July 15 when it becomes available. KC is not the most expensive aftermarket lighting company, but it's up there. A 50-inch Gravity Titan round light bar, which looks to be what you're seeing on display in those videos, is almost three grand alone. I bet the Platform One rack rings up in the $1,500 neighborhood before you add the lights and wiring that make it special. As with all car mods, whether or not it's 'worth it' comes down to how much coin you have to blow. If you're banging around in an old Montero like me, save your four-figure splurges on tires. But if you can drop $80,000 on a new GX550 Overtrail, I mean, this is probably just another payment, right? KC Hilites Initial fitments will be for the Toyota Tacoma, 4Runner, and new Land Cruiser, Lexus GX470, GX460, GX550, 2015+ Ford F-150s (and second-gen Raptors), F-250, and F-350 Super Dutys. I wonder if Bronco and Wrangler will be added to that list at some point—the removable roofs on those vehicles might make rack engineering a little more involved. And if you've read this far and are now wondering what 'KC' stands for, it simply references the founders' names in a slightly abstract way. In 1970, the company was started by Peter Kim Brown and his wife Carol, who retrofitted aircraft lights into truck-friendly housings for off-road applications. So the 'K' is for Peter's middle name, and the 'C' is for Carol. Got a tip? Or a different rack we should know about? Drop us a line at tips@

The Corsair is fun to drive thanks to the powerful engine. It's loaded with safety features and cargo space.' The Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 is the ultimate luxury SUV. This vehicle is based on the Benz GLS class but has high-end features. The interior of the Maybach GLS 600 is top-of-the-line, featuring premium Nappa leather and Manufaktur Signature paints. In addition, the GLS has different upgrade features, like an optional third row, driver-assistance features and lane-centering features.

More than a Prado in Prada: Lexus GX is a compelling new player in luxury 4x4 space
Lexus GX The Lexus GX is available in two flavours: SE (left) and Overtrail. Image: Supplied Like a burly tri-athlete in a tuxedo, the new Lexus GX aims to combine genuine off-road capability with the kind of luxury and sophistication that you'd expect from the Japanese premium brand. Unashamedly pitched at premium rivals such as the Land Rover Defender, this is the first time that the Lexus GX is ever being offered to South African consumers, although internationally it is now in its third generation. Just like the larger Lexus LX is based on Toyota's Land Cruiser 300, the GX is a relative of the Prado. Yet after spending two days with the newcomer on a variety of roads and trails in the Eastern Cape, it became clear that this is far more than just a Prado wearing Prada. While it retains the Prado's basic bodyshell, and 2,850mm wheelbase, the front and rear ends have been completely redesigned, with a somewhat butch interpretation of the luxury brand's usual 'spindle' design theme. With an overall length of 5,015mm, it's a good 90mm longer than its Toyota sibling. Inside it's anything but a carbon copy, with a fresh cockpit design and materials that are discernibly more upscale. Out on the road, it seemed quieter too. But perhaps the biggest distinction is beneath the lengthened bonnet, where you'll find Toyota's 3.4-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine. Denoted by the GX 550 badge, it's the only powertrain on offer for now, and a brawny one at that, producing 260kW and 650Nm. Sorry diesel-heads, but there are no plans to offer an oil-burning version of the GX. But if it's any consolation, a hybrid model, featuring a 2.4-litre turbopetrol engine, is currently under investigation for the local market. The Lexus GX will be offered in two flavours locally, Overtrail and SE, and each has a very distinct personality. The Overtrail, priced at R1,766,000, has an equipment package geared towards off-roading, while the SE, at R1,829,000, packs more luxury features. And they are easily distinguishable on the outside. Lexus GX Overtrail (left) or SE (right), which one are you? Image: Supplied The Overtrail wears matte grey 18-inch alloy wheels with off-road tyres and also features an aluminium skid plate and additional under-body protection. The SE rolls on 22-inch machined alloys with lower-profile rubber, and while both feature side steps, they're auto-retractable in the case of the SE. Both versions are built to hit the trails, with a full-time four-wheel drive system featuring as standard, and including a Torsen locking centre differential and electronic transfer case with low range gearing. The Overtrail ups the off-road ante with an Electronic Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System, locking rear differential as well as a Multi-Terrain Select system, with selectable modes, and Crawl Control, which serves as a type of off-road cruise control. A plethora of cameras also shows you what's going on around the vehicle, via the central screen, and including the view in front of the bonnet. We got to put all of these systems to the test on a semi-challenging off-road trail in the vicinity of Salem in the Eastern Cape - where there are no witch hunts, as far as we know, but you will miss this charming little town if you blink. The Lexus GX is based on the Toyota Prado, but with numerous design differences. Image: Supplied We sampled the Overtrail models on the aforementioned 4x4 course, and we found the steep and rocky sections were easy to navigate thanks to the vehicle's impressive wheel articulation and the Crawl Control system. Interestingly, the 4x4 instructors led our pack of Overtrail models with an SE version, and as much as we'd be reluctant to take one of these off road, with its glitzy 22-inch rims, owners will no doubt be pleased to know that if they wanted to.. they certainly could. As we mentioned earlier, this is very much a dual-purpose vehicle and on the tar sections, the GX delivered some surprises too. GX is a great road car too Although the boxy shape does lend itself to some wind noise, we were impressed by the overall noise insulation and refined road manners, particularly in the SE version, which felt both comfortable and stable on tar and dirt roads. The Overtrail, with its knobbly tyres, felt a touch jittery by comparison, particularly on the dirt paths. The GX has a surprisingly sporty side to it too, accentuated in the seemingly uncharacteristic 'Sport +' mode, which liberates maximum engine power and makes the throttle and steering more responsive. Under hard acceleration in this mode, I could have sworn, for a second, that it sounded like a Nissan GT-R! The twin-boosted V6 also makes overtaking a synch, but the price of this performance without any hybrid assistance - assuming this even matters to prospective owners at the price point - is fuel consumption. Lexus claims a figure of 12.3 litres per 100km on the combined cycle, but our car's readout hovered stubbornly over the 17 l/100km mark throughout the launch drive. We drove almost 500km over two days, with the route taking us over highways, backroads, gravel paths and off-road trails. At not one point did we feel the Lexus GX was unsuited to any particular terrain. It's a true all-rounder. The cabin is comfortable and luxurious too. The interior has a premium feel, befitting the Lexus brand. Image: Supplied

I'm Trading My 4x4 For A Sports Car! What Should I Buy?
John has enjoyed off-roading in his Lexus GX, but the gas mileage is terrible, and he doesn't hit the trails enough to really justify having that kind of car. He wants to swap it for something fun for zipping around the city and the occasional track day. With a budget of up to $60,000, what car should he buy? (Welcome back to What Car Should You Buy? Where we give real people real advice about buying cars. Do you want us to help you find a car? Submit your story on our form.) Here is the scenario. So I got a Lexus GX last year, it's been great fun, and I enjoyed the "overlanding" life, camping out of it and using the huge space inside. But its horrible on gas, and I don't use it to its full potential, so my wife and I decided to get her a Bronco Sport (for her daily and our camping needs). This leaves me with a chance to get something fun and exciting again. Id be daily driving this in the city, so hot take, I want an automatic (i already have a track day Miata for the fun manual driving). I want something that feels fast, and is exciting to drive, and could be taken to track days if needed (in case the Miata ever breaks). The budget is about $60k Budget: up to $60,000 Location: Atlanta, GA Daily Driver: Yes Wants: Fun, somewhat comfortable, reasonable MPG Doesn't want: A manual Read more: Porsche Taycan Turbos Have Lost Up To $100,000 Value In 4 Years So the overlanding life wasn't as convenient as you thought it would be and you decided it's better do enjoy a car on an everyday basis than on an occasional one. You are looking for something sporty, but can be driven daily, with reasonable MPGs and you already like Toyota products. I would say a Toyota Supra is the right fit. Whether or not you consider the current generation a "real Supra" with its BMW powerplant and German switchgear, it certainly looks the part of a Japanese bred sports car, though the styling is a bit polarizing. You still get a turbocharged straight-six under the hood making 335 horsepower that do the sprint to 60 MPH in about four seconds. While manual Supras command a premium, the ones using the excellent ZF 8-speed automatic are plentiful under $60,000. You can argue that this car may not be deserving of the "Supra" nameplate, but it's still a well-balanced machine that is home on the street or the track. Get yourself an interesting color like this yellow one. I'm sure the commenters are going to take you to task for not wanting a third pedal in metro Atlanta, but I get it. Crawling along in rush hour traffic on 400 in a manual is a miserable experience, and you couldn't pay me to do it ever again. Sure, we could have expanded MARTA into the suburbs decades ago and mostly fixed all that, but since the traffic is the only thing keeping crime out of Cobb County, we sit and burn gas. Unless your new daily driver doesn't burn gas, that is. Your commute can't be more than 25 miles each way, so why not pick up an EV as your new daily? You'll save a ton of money on gas, maintenance will be cheaper, and perhaps most importantly, EVs are way more efficient in stop-and-go traffic than gas cars or even hybrids. It takes some power to keep the A/C and radio on, but beyond that, EVs really only use electricity when you're moving. So what EV should you buy with a budget of about $60,000? A Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, hands down. It'll cost a little extra, but take one for a test drive, and tell me I'm wrong. We're talking about the most fun-to-drive EV on the market, and you can afford it, so why not? Sure, it doesn't have 300 miles of range, but fast charging is far more important than range in a daily driver, and 221 miles is plenty. Heck, my Fiat only has 141 miles. Unlike my Fiat, though, the Ioniq 5 N will be a blast at the track, too. In most situations, the fake shifting is a novelty, but on a track, it's actually useful. It would be great if Braselton added more chargers, but it at least has a few, including at least one at Road Atlanta itself. Other people are going to tell you I'm wrong, but that's just how you know they're wrong. Besides, have those people even driven the Ioniq 5 N? You've come to us with a very simple question here. You need a track-capable car that's still comfortable enough to daily, and you want an automatic gearbox in it. The Supra is a fantastic choice there, but I reckon there's only one correct answer for that use case: Get thee a Cayman. The PDK is one of the best auto boxes out there, aggressive and precise enough for delicate track work while still compliant on the street. The Porsche surrounding it needs no introduction, as one of the best mid-engined chassis you'll find for anything resembling your price point. That dollar figure is, by the way, enough for you to just barely squeak into a 718 in GTS trim, for sale right in Georgia. Sure, the dealer's site says $63,000, but AutoTrader's price starts with a five and that's the number we'll go with. All the daily comfort and ease of use you could ever want, all the track capability you could ever need should your dear Miata bite it. You've clearly got taste, don't settle for anything worse than the best — or anything more boring than a Cayman GTS. Well, this is a fun challenge today! Something that's fun to drive, comfortable, and nice enough to be your daily driver is a good car to be shopping for, and while I think my colleagues have come close to the right answer, I'm not sure they've quite hit the nail on the head. I agree with Collin that an electric car is the right option for any daily driver today, and I think Amber was on to the right track with a Porsche - because they're almost always fun. Do you see where I'm going with this? That's right, the perfect new car for you is an electric Porsche! You can pick up some absolute bargains on Porsche's electric Taycan these days, and they're fun, fast, comfortable and one of the best looking cars on sale today. There are a few in your price range nearby, but personally I don't think you can go wrong with this Volcano Grey example. It's covered hardly any miles, will manage 200 miles on a single charge, and has a lush red leather interior in which you can soak up all your daily drives. And sure, it might be a bit heavy to run on track, but are you ever really going to get bored of racing your Miata? I don't think so. Want more like this?
