2024LexusGX 550550

This Lexus GX550 Overtrail+ has always been about performance and for 2024, Lexus engineers have achieved significant gains over the previous generation. The 3.4 litre twin-turbo V6 features active noise control and delivers a big boost in power over the engine it replaces. Horsepower is up by 48 to 349 peak horsepower, while peak torque is 479 lb-ft, up by 150. This powertrain is mated to a 10-speed Direct Shift automatic transmission with paddle shifters and full-time four-wheel-drive. This engine's twin-turbochargers deliver steady and consistent acceleration for improved control over power delivery in both on-road and off-road situations, with improved fuel efficiency of 15.3 / 11.2 / 13.5 L/100 km (City/Highway/Combined).

This 2024 GX rides on the same Lexus GA-F platform introduced on the current generation LX?600. This increases body rigidity and improves on-road handling two key elements of the Lexus Driving Signature. The GA-F is engineered to withstand twisty off-road forces, maximize suspension performance, create stable wheel articulation, and deliver more consistent tire contact all while maintaining in-cabin stability. This improved frame also provides a reliable foundation on which Guests may add accessories and gear such as rooftop tents and recovery kits.

This 2024 GX introduces a rugged yet refined body style that expresses this model's authentic off-road functionality. The 2024 GX features a square-body profile with horizontal design motif, a grounded, stable stance with wide track and fender flares, and improved ground clearance. To overcome off-road obstacles, the GX is designed with 26-degree approach, 24-degree breakover, and 21-degree departure angles. Notable standard features include auto-levelling, triple-beam premium LED headlamps with washers, LED tail lamps, the Lexus signature unified L-shaped light bar and updated Lexus logo, running boards, roof rails, and rear spoiler. For the first time, the GX is fitted with a power rear lift door as standard, including a flip-up rear hatch.

Inside, the GX welcomes Guests to a cabin that juxtaposes its tough exterior with a calming, luxurious, and modern interior space. A new horizontal instrument panel design is lower and carries into the dash to provide excellent front and side visibility for driver and co-pilot. Lexus designers retained physical dials for frequently-used controls such as climate control and audio volume, while all available off-road controls are concentrated near the gear shifter to help minimize potential driver distraction.

Every 2024 GX is impressively equipped with advanced yet intuitive technology features, headlined by the Lexus Interface. This wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto-compatible multimedia and connectivity system features a 14-inch touchscreen display, Bluetooth connectivity, and Sirius XM Satellite compatibility. The Lexus Interface incorporates a natural language virtual assistant that enables a voice-first approach to navigation, media, communication, and other vehicle features. In addition, all Lexus Interface connected services may be controlled from a smart phone equipped with the Lexus App. Other standard features include a 12.3-inch multi-information display, a wireless charging dock for smartphones, and illuminated USB charging ports through the cabin.

As a Lexus, every GX?550 also features state of the art safety systems starting with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, an integrated suite of active safety equipment and convenience features.

This 2024 Lexus GX?550 Overtrail+ enhances the Overtrail grade with a long list of upgrades, including a power adjustable steering column, driver's seat memory system linked to the steering column and exterior mirrors, front-row massage seats with additional power adjustments, second row heated outboard seats, rear sunshades, head up display, additional driver awareness safety technologies (including traffic jam assist, front cross traffic alert, drive monitor, and lane change assist), a digital key for all four side doors plus the back door, a cool box, 21-speaker Mark Levinson Premium Audio system, a power back door enhanced with kick sensor for hands-free operation, a multi-colour ambient interior lighting system, illuminated aluminum scuff plates, and parking support alert/brake with pedestrian, vehicle, and object detection.This model has a 9,063 lb towing rating.
