Finally, we have the all-new 2024 Lexus GX, here in 550 trim and it looks absolutely EPIC. Riding on the TNGA-F ladder frame chassis, the new GX looks EPIC with a classy boxy design, big chunky body panels, and a split tailgate with separate opening glass.. oh it’s just SO GOOD. The 2024 Lexus GX is 2.75 inches (70 mm) longer and 3.74 inches (95 mm) wider than the outgoing car, while the wheelbase is stretched by 2.36 inches.

It will be offered in six grades: Premium, Premium+, Luxury, Luxury+, and all-new for Lexus, Overtrail, and Overtrail+(AKA new 33-inch All-Terrain tires on 18-inch wheels as standard).
Under the hood is no longer a V8 but rather a 3.4L TwinTurbo V6 making around 349HP and 479 lb-ft of torque and a hybrid unit is coming in the future. It can tow 8,000 lbs and gets a 10-speed auto. There also is a Torsen centre diff and a transfer case.
Off-road models get an electronic locking rear differential and improved wheel articulation thanks to Toyota’s Electronic-Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (E-KDSS), anti-roll bar disconnect, 3D trail monitor and so much more. Inside is modern with all the tech and comfort goodies you need.

2024 Lexus GX Release date
The 2024 Lexus GX will go on sale in early 2024, with assembly taking place at the Tahara plant in Japan
In terms of off-road-friendly kit, the GX Overtrail will come with what Lexus calls its Electronic–Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (E-KDSS). In all its forms, KDSS allows for the fitment of larger stabilizer bars than you would normally fit on an off-roader. The system is able to tell the difference between on-road corners when big anti-roll bars are a handling benefit, and articulation off-road, where big bars (or any bars at all) are a liability. The old system deactivated the anti-roll bars (or not) after comparing the front and rear hydraulically, while the new one does that electronically.
An electronically locking rear differential is standard on Overtrail variants as well. The Overtrail’s unique looks don’t change its capability much, carrying the same 26-degree approach angle as the rest of the lineup. Breakover is one degree better than the pack at 24 degrees, while departure is midpack between the trims at 22 degrees.
