Lexus GX 460 vs 550: How has the GX changed?

Many people were thrilled when they heard that the GX 460 would be getting upgraded. The good news is the GX has been fully updated and is quite impressive; however, the GX 460 no longer exists. As of the 2024 model year, the GX is now only available as the GX 550. Lexus has updated the body, gone to a more powerful engine, and added plenty of new tech for the 550. It seems fitting then that the number would increase given all the additional upgrades to the GX. As an official Lexus GX dealer, we have seen the changes of the GX over the years, and this is by far the most impressive to date. A full-size luxury SUV that feels just as comfortable off-road as it does on the road is quite a unique offering, and the GX delivers. We're here to discuss changes to the GX inside and out. Continue scrolling to learn about the powertrain options, new features, and style changes Lexus has made. If you're in the Brookfield, WI region, stop by today for a demonstration and free test drive of the GX 550.

Lexus GX: Inside a cabin designed for comfort

Inside the GX, drivers and passengers will enjoy the benefits of a modern, spacious cabin. With a driver-centric cockpit, the GX includes thoughtful features that keep the driver engaged and ready to conquer obstacles. The available Head-Up Display and digital 12.3 Multi-Information display provide an abundance of driving data to optimize the experience of cruising in the GX. Off-road controls are strategically placed near the gear shifter to reduce your distractions, and you can even get a 360-degree driving view on the 14-inch Multimedia Touchscreen Display. It really is a treasure trove of driving tech that makes the most important person inside the GX, the driver, feel like a kid in an off-road candy shop. To keep you comfortable, the driver and front passenger seats both come standard with heated and ventilated outboard seating with ergonomic features through the seat cushion, seatback bolster, and headrest. As for everyone else, the 36.73 inches of second-row leg space and 37.89 inches of third-row leg space, plus available heated second-row captain's chairs, keep your passengers from getting too jealous.

Lexus GX: seating options

The GX offers seating for up to 7, but depending on trims and optional upgrades, this can vary. Both the Overtrail and Overtrail+ trim levels forgo third-row seating for additional cargo space. For the most part, anyone looking at the GX as a family SUV will be more inclined towards the Premium or Luxury trims anyways, as the Overtrail is geared toward off-road performance. Both the Premium and Luxury trims have the option for a second-row captain's chair, which adds a great deal of comfort at the expense of one seat. Take a look at some of the great seating options the GX has to offer:

GX Cargo Space

The GX boasts plenty of storage, including a center console, door pockets, and up to 12 cupholders. With the third row folded down, cargo space can accommodate up to five suitcases, and there are two additional storage compartments beneath the cargo area for smaller items. The GX even offers a place to keep your drinks cold in the front center console with the available Cool Box. The total cargo space does vary depending on the GX's trims, as the premium and luxury trims have three rows, but the overland has only two rows and is geared for extra storage.

• Three-row GX cargo space (behind front row/second row/third row): 76.9 / 40.2 / 10.3 cu ft
• Two-row GX cargo space (behind front row/second row): 90.5 / 45.6 cu ft

Lexus GX: New design for modern times

The new design of the GX showcases a distinctly aggressive exterior design that embodies the robust and rugged character of its predecessors. This is a luxury SUV that will stand out no matter where you are, from the streets of Brookfield to the trails at the White River Wildlife Area. The GX features a square-body silhouette while the front maintains the Lexus spindle body concept. The standard Triple-Beam LED headlamps and grille opening are strategically positioned to mitigate potential road impacts, complemented by available LED fog and cornering lamps for improved visibility. Additionally, the GX is equipped with a standard power rear lift door featuring a pop-out window, along with an optional kick sensor for hands-free operating. Overall the GX's new design pays homage to the GX 460 while leaning into an even more pronounced off-road feel.
