The Overtrail + seems like Lexus looked inside my head, and built exactly what I want. I love the boxy outside, and the interior features are great. So glad it gets a massaging front seat. That was a major sore spot for me against the LX. This new GX really does kick the LX in the teeth.
I think you are right pricing. As a prior 2019 gx460 owner and before that a 2016 t4r, I think I’m priced out. Really hoping the new LC version comes out for a little bit of a discount or I’ll wait for these next GXs to be certified in a few years and pick up a clean one.
Lol I would love to see you all take an $80k GX off roading/overlanding. I have a 2018 on 35’s with a 3 inch lift, cut bumpers and sliders. Get a new scratch every trip off pavement. Will be looking forward to picking one of these up in 8 years or so off the used market if they remain reliable.
I'm sure some of these options will find their way to the LX...comparatively it almost feels like the LX was rushed to market (even though it took them forever to bring a new gen.) This GX is such a home run! Hope the LX gets more rounded out as well.
The LX was just re-badged quickly since the land cruiser wasn't available in the US anymore; they likely wanted to get it out quickly to get the would-be land cruiser buyers that wanted the J300 in the US
I still think the LX has its pros, it’s definitely more focused on the luxury aspect of the segment. While obviously the GX takes the off-road aspect. Before Lexus had to combine both into the LX but they don’t have to anymore. One problem with the LX is that it wasn’t designed for the American market, and you can tell it was designed for the Middle East with the options it has. It’s surprising that the GX gets front massaging seats and not the LX
Yeah Overtrail+ looks like the play if one wants 2 row seating, mark levinson, EKDSS and adaptive variable suspension. Would've been nice to have mark levinson options on all of them
I like the Lexus build quality but I don’t like the previous GX because of the front facial grill but I love this gen it almost perfect imo I can’t wait to owned one
I am kinda disappointed that there doesn't appear to be an option to equip the GX with Active Height Conrol/Hydraulic Suspension but other than that, it's a superior offering. I am upset that it will take so long to hit the market though. I wish it was onsale right now.
I think some people's expectations are a little far fetched, especially this economy and where car suppliers are charging more to car makers. Having air suspension would of been nice but definitely would jack the price closer to LX prices.
Love the GX!! It would be great for Toyota to bring out a basic off road biased Prado at a competitive price point. Similar to the FJ in basic but necessary features.
The interior needs work, but that’s what modding is for. That’s crazy that there’s no F sport but the TX does. but I’ll just customize the seats red, but it will be OEM style.
I like the Luxury+ and Overtail+. If you are actually going to be offroading then go for Overtrail+, and if you will be driving in the city and want comfort then Luxury+ has everything
If those price estimations are correct it makes this GX waaaaaaaay overpriced for what it is. An Overland at $80k is too much for a Lexus, that's Land Rover Defender money right there. We will see.
@@JohnJohnCrusherI agree I have a range rover sport and this thing is not reliable at all ! Not to mention how poor the service is… Waiting to change for a gx or land cruiser
Great overview, Kirk! Agree, "cool box" should be an option and not forced on any trim level such as the Luxury +. Good mix would be the Premium + or Luxury + to get a loaded 7-seater, but with the 18-inch Overtrail wheels/tires - or perhaps standard (non-Overtrail) diameter tires but 18" for a little more "adventure capable" than either 20s or 21s suggest.
I think the hybrid 4cyl is the smart choice. It will have good power and better fuel economy. That will probably be the volume seller if they can make them.
Kirk, Welcome to the Wacky World of Lexus! Does the GX's standard 3.4 turbo powerplant produce 30 hp less than most Tundra V6s with Premium or Regular fuel? While the upgraded off road capability is welcome, most serious SUVs (Land Cruiser 70 Series, Defender, Bronco, Wrangler and many Prados) mount the spare tire on the tailgate. The GX's new popup tailgate precludes that highly practical feature. In regard to offering more luxury features than the LX, lets just say the LX600 has been underwhelming from Day 1. 🤨 Let's hope the upcoming Land Cruiser Prado upgrades value and practicality with a full set of locking differentials and old fashioned HVAC switches. 😁
It seems to perfectly match the detuned version of the new Tundra. So I'm guessing they detuned it for durability/longevity. Less strain on the engine. Torque matches though.
@@Toby_Flenderson_1982 Can you explain why the Premium fuel 4.6 V8 in GX has a lower horsepower rating than the 4.6 in the Tundra and Sequoia which ran on Regular? The same phenomenon also occurred with various naturally aspirated Toyota/Lexus V6s over the years. That is what I meant by Wacky World of Lexus 😉
@@rightlanehog3151 Different markets; different consumer preferences. If what you're saying is true (I haven't looked into those numbers), I would guess that they detune them for durability. Just a guess. You can tinker with HP in such a way as to affect the stress on the engine.
Luxury models only. From the photos I've seen, the digital 4-zone controls have no vents on the center console, so those models must have roof vents like the previous generation.
I was hoping for turbo v6 hybrid but got to save something for the LX I guess. At least the turbo inline 4 hybrid will be somewhat fuel efficient. I bet the price will be a huge deciding factor for many buyers. Now I am just hoping they get the 6th gen 4Runner(if there's even one) and the US version of land cruiser right as well.
with overtrail any need for a LC ? a LC basic off-roader could fit above the 4runner trd pro below the sequoia trd pro ? but add the dealer markup on overtrail it will be $100k
If the New Lexus LX600, which is bigger SUV has a combined mpg of 19, wouldn't the New GX get similar combined mpg or even better ? I really do hope the Hybrid gets at least 25 ~ 26 mpg combined.
LX600 is bigger than the current GX, this new one more or less has the same platform as they share the same wheelbase, similar length and width. The GX is actually taller by an inch or two

Current GX base is at $60,225 and GX premium is $61,560. For 2024 GX premium is the base model, so assume a $2-3k price increase over $61,560 but I hope they keep it under $63k (something like $62,995 + shipping cost of $2k), end of the day we anyway pay $65k+ tax and doc fee. I don’t think anyone driving out under $70k including taxes.
Can you ask your contacts @ Toyota/Lexus if we can get the "Cold Area Package: Windshield wiper de-icer, headlamp washer, fast-response interior heater" in the Overtrail and Overtrail+? I only see it listed under the Premium and Premium+. Because if not, that is a giant miss.
Rumour is there is a signature model coming to Canada. We already had it in the older GX460. It sits below the premium. Just calculated $65k to CDN funds...$87k!
I get the G class is in a league of its own but it’s hard to argue that this isn’t direct competition. It has good power, legit creature comforts and off-road capability. If the G sold for its actual MSRP you’d definitely have people cross shopping these. And Defender vs GX? I don’t even see a scenario where you choose Land Rover over Lexus, it’s like the least reliable vs the most. Both in initial quality and long term reliability Land Rover is horrible.
Cross shopping the Land Rover I can see but for G-Wagon buyers...the base model STARTS at like $140k. I think there'd be very little cross shopping there as if they want a G-Wagon, they're going to be getting a G-Wagon; those kind of buyers know what they want
I'm pissed that the panoramic roof comes standard allll the way on luxury+ but isn't an option on other trims. Really Lexus?? Panoramic roofs are so basic nowadays. Maybe they will make it an option for other trims in 2025. Jeez 😒. Also you can only get Mark Levinson on luxury and many models allow that upgrade at premium plus. I hate their optioning system.
Buyers, people who BUY new GX's would have preferred the V6TT with a hybrid motor. Detuned a bit, but much more preferable to a 4cyl setup. And I would prefer a tan interior, not just on the centre of the seats and a tiny bit on the door. As well as a lighter headliner colour. Not everyone wants a black hole interior. A brighter fake wood would be nice. Real wood is even better. I wish they would get rid of the plastic inserts on the A and D pillars as well as the black roof option (which drives the need for the plastic inserts). As well it should with a modern 10-speed transmission have a regular RWD mode like a 4Runner. 17mpg is brutal and this one feature could have mpg reach into the mid 20's.
the 4 way power headrest basically goes up and down and then you can make the headrest upright or tilt down towards you, don't think it moves forward, The Mercedes E class and S class have these power headrests.
If it's anything like the current luxury it's mostly just the coilover/struts; isn't much trouble and know plenty that have lifted with kdss and avs. You just lose AVS typically if you go coilover lifts
@@chibbyylol Ahh didn’t know current Gen had AVS. I keep reading about KDSS lean/spacers/etc needed. You retain full functionality of KDSS with a lift and it cycles the same amount?
Looks like everyone likes it - but will wait for the hybrid,except they can't afford it. The market ran out of byers who will pay six digits for a car.
Hey Kirk! Your videos just keep getting better! Where can I find the photos you scrolled through with the different color rigs/tire wheel combo, etc at 4:28 in? Thank you!!
Dont buy its overpriced Very cheap plastic grill Dashboard also mix plastic Fake leather seats Car body quality is very cheap plus toyota and lexus since 2019 ( go and do the test from any engineer on body works) Camera whether front back or birdseye super cheap lens and bad resollution ( small company like kia and ford as compared giving much much much better camera , screen info, dashboard quality , panels trim lustre and body quality and digi cluster plus no old outdated obsolete analog) Please guys do thorough research dont go on goodwill and reliabilty card of toyota and lexus Its all downhill charging exorbitant in nane of those cards
How do you know everything about this 2024 model like camera resolution, body quality etc? Are you just presuming based on 2020-2023 models? That would be a natural assumption, sure, but it might not actually be the case for 2024

Clarify this please. My 2022 GX 460 Black line has KDSS, Downhill assist and locking differential. If I were to want that in the 2024 I could NOT get it on the Luxury plus? The current luxury also has Crawl control, so that will no longer be available, Except for the overtrail?
@@KirkKreifels I think many people will be looking for those answers. In a way, if they don't have those features any more it's a bit of a step down. The exterior re do is super appealing for sure, but if you want what was standard before, minus the V8, people will be forced to choose the Overtrail, without a 3rd row seat.
Hope they will have enough cars available at that time and you don't need to wait for another year. Toyota really likes the hunger marketing strategy in the USA.
That's a big vehicle to move with a 4 cyl no matter what tricks you add to it. Edit: Meaning you will see reliability issues trying to tow 8000 lbs and move something wider than a Tundra.
@@sm-zn8xm We are talking about the hybrid 2.4L version, NOT the GX550. Lexus has provided photos of the hybrid 2.4 power plant for the GX, but it will be released after the GX550.
I've never attracted previous GX, although it was trendy among women, especially in age '30s and 40'. The new GX looks fantastic and has much more apparel than LX and RX. I wish Toyota made the interior more luxurious, high-grade, and rich in design. With that said, the new GX would sell well. I love it. Forget EVs. Let's go places with V6 Twin Turbo😎.
I will buy that exact model on the showroom! Not one change! The only incognito is why the put that gigantic cover on the tow pack, and how will lool like without the cover!
ooof, that hybrid battery looks really high up. Do you think they'll sacrifice 3rd row fold-flat like the Sequoia? I think I'd rather see it with a 3rd row delete than sacrifice so much storage.
Kirk , 4 cylinder hybrid is not going to give you that smooth quiet that the current GX is ? Are you okay with the GX not being a luxury anymore? I’m concerned none of the new models are going to give the quiet smooth ride of the current with the V8 Also, the specs don’t mention the wood / leather wrapped steering wheel ? Did they get rid of the wood ? The sky roof does not open …. It’s like the Toyota Venza

And I would prefer a tan interior, not just on the centre of the seats and a tiny bit on the door. As well as a lighter headliner colour. Not everyone wants a black hole interior. A brighter fake wood would be nice. Real wood is even better. I wish they would get rid of the plastic inserts on the A and D pillars as well as the black roof option (which drives the need for the plastic inserts). As well it should with a modern 10-speed transmission have a regular RWD mode like a 4Runner. 17mpg is brutal and this one feature could have mpg reach into the mid 20's.
You must be SO fun at parties 🙄
@@collinbooker I am a hoot at parties. But at $75k-$85K like most buyers, I get picky.
@@mjv1967 Man you literally described the rest of the Lexus line up. It’s okay if something is fun and cool but a little impractical, I promise 😉
I want it blacked all the way out or Blue with the brown interior.. I’m getting it wrapped immediately. Get a three inch lift and 24’s
Thanks Kirk. Great video with all those details. Keep it coming on the GX and eventually 4Runner.
the 4 way power headrest basically goes up and down and then you can make the headrest upright or tilt down towards you, don't think it moves forward, The Mercedes E class and S class have these power headrests.
That EKDSS and adaptive suspension is gonna be a pain to lift 😬. I hope Lexus has a solution like Tundras TRD lift kit.
If it's anything like the current luxury it's mostly just the coilover/struts; isn't much trouble and know plenty that have lifted with kdss and avs. You just lose AVS typically if you go coilover lifts
@@chibbyylol Ahh didn’t know current Gen had AVS. I keep reading about KDSS lean/spacers/etc needed. You retain full functionality of KDSS with a lift and it cycles the same amount?
@@TobyCostaRica kdss spacers are a thing for the new ride height but you do retain functionality
I like the new boxy exterior style that looks appropriate for the GX’s mission: ruggedness, utility, spaciousness and luxury.
Looks like everyone likes it - but will wait for the hybrid,except they can't afford it. The market ran out of byers who will pay six digits for a car.
Love the vehicle, but I'm torn. I need that 3rd row on the Overtrail. And was hoping for the iforce for a little better fuel economy
100% agree here
Can’t have a tow vehicle with three rows and levinson :( - premium sound should be an option on all trims.
A three row overlander would fix this
Why is it called a 550? There’s no relation to displacement, horsepower or torque? At least the 460 and 470 made sense?
Lexus numbering nomenclature just represents trim levels at this point
@@matthewalexis same with most manfafctures cant tell I the engine size any more
@@matthewalexis they don’t want to admit they’re putting in a shitty underpowered 4 banger in it?
Why does it look so similar to the current 4Runner? Hopefully its substantially bigger.
@kirkkreifels do you know if each trim level has the “TOW/HAUL” button and is the transmission cooler still an option, or is it standard?
For the GX 460, the transmission cooler was only done in certain trims in Canada. I am also interested in this question.
I'm seriously looking into getting the 2024 gx
Hey Kirk! Your videos just keep getting better! Where can I find the photos you scrolled through with the different color rigs/tire wheel combo, etc at 4:28 in? Thank you!!
2001 RX has four way. 2013 GS had butterfly headrests-Luxury trim.
The markups will be insane 😭
I work for Lexus of Cherry Hill and we AR not marking up the pricing on this car
@@DamionPugh ah man I wish that was the case for my local dealership, awesome of you guys to not do that 🙏🏼
The dealership in CO said their parent company doesn’t allow markups.
I dont think Lexus is allowing markups. I haven't seen it in my area
@@TheWinwin4all oh they allow markups.... we just choose not to do them. It's tough for customers no matter how much money you make
Seriously can't wait for GX overtrail
Dont buy its overpriced
Very cheap plastic grill
Dashboard also mix plastic
Fake leather seats
Car body quality is very cheap plus toyota and lexus since 2019 ( go and do the test from any engineer on body works)
Camera whether front back or birdseye super cheap lens and bad resollution ( small company like kia and ford as compared giving much much much better camera , screen info, dashboard quality , panels trim lustre and body quality and digi cluster plus no old outdated obsolete analog)
Please guys do thorough research dont go on goodwill and reliabilty card of toyota and lexus
Its all downhill charging exorbitant in nane of those cards
How do you know everything about this 2024 model like camera resolution, body quality etc? Are you just presuming based on 2020-2023 models? That would be a natural assumption, sure, but it might not actually be the case for 2024

Noone is buying highlander since they went v4 from v6

Same with rav 4 it's just fake frenzy fake demand created by toyota by cutting production

OverTrail+ for me. Can’t wait!
Loving the Overtrail, definitely TTV6, no hybrid for me.
Curious what the payload is for the Overtrail TTV6?
Why are these latest premium SUV’s eliminating rear Blu-ray video option? For families this is so crucial…Even my 2016 Honda Pilot Touring has it with HDMI to connect anything basically. Rather have that than a “cool” sunroof.
All the kids have their own devices now (my 4 year old has his own tablet with all his movies/games on it). No need to have them in the vehicle anymore.
Awesome video! Do you think the third row seats will fold into the floor or sit on top like the sequoia?
From what i can tell does not fold in and disappear :(:(:(
you are 10k off on pricing withe regards to Overtail+, surprisingly GX premium and overtrail + priced same. It is good for adventour customers
Excellent as always my friend
Clarify this please. My 2022 GX 460 Black line has KDSS, Downhill assist and locking differential. If I were to want that in the 2024 I could NOT get it on the Luxury plus? The current luxury also has Crawl control, so that will no longer be available, Except for the overtrail?
I believe what you say is true. Stay tuned closer to availability so I can confirm
@@KirkKreifels I think many people will be looking for those answers. In a way, if they don't have those features any more it's a bit of a step down. The exterior re do is super appealing for sure, but if you want what was standard before, minus the V8, people will be forced to choose the Overtrail, without a 3rd row seat.
Overwhelmingly Positive. 👌
GX 550 for sure 🙌
Hope they will have enough cars available at that time and you don't need to wait for another year. Toyota really likes the hunger marketing strategy in the USA.
Man! Mark Levinson should be standard on all trim models for that price!!!
Knowing what I know about Ford's, I would say the reason the Luxury has lower towing is based on tires weight rating.
How does the GX on 33s only has 8.1” ground clearance and not a min of 10”
Kirk, did you notice the side molding on the Overtrail in those press photos? Looks great. Wonder if that will be an option? Wasn’t listed as one….
Gimme a look at captain’s chairs
Awesome video, very thorough, and informative.
That's a big vehicle to move with a 4 cyl no matter what tricks you add to it. Edit: Meaning you will see reliability issues trying to tow 8000 lbs and move something wider than a Tundra.
my thoughts exactly. boosted, with an oil cooler, running 0w20. not a recipe for longevity.
It a ttv6, the TX it the one with 4cyl.
@@sm-zn8xm We are talking about the hybrid 2.4L version, NOT the GX550. Lexus has provided photos of the hybrid 2.4 power plant for the GX, but it will be released after the GX550.
Its basically got the same power as the 550, so I don’t think it will have any problem moving this vehicle
@@tinhinnh Today they can make a 4cyl engine prouduce 1000+hp, but how long will it last? That's the point.
Pricing sounds off + the interest rates now days it would not he worth it
I've never attracted previous GX, although it was trendy among women, especially in age '30s and 40'. The new GX looks fantastic and has much more apparel than LX and RX. I wish Toyota made the interior more luxurious, high-grade, and rich in design. With that said, the new GX would sell well. I love it. Forget EVs. Let's go places with V6 Twin Turbo😎.
I will buy that exact model on the showroom! Not one change! The only incognito is why the put that gigantic cover on the tow pack, and how will lool like without the cover!
ooof, that hybrid battery looks really high up. Do you think they'll sacrifice 3rd row fold-flat like the Sequoia? I think I'd rather see it with a 3rd row delete than sacrifice so much storage.
Kirk , 4 cylinder hybrid is not going to give you that smooth quiet that the current GX is ? Are you okay with the GX not being a luxury anymore? I’m concerned none of the new models are going to give the quiet smooth ride of the current with the V8 Also, the specs don’t mention the wood / leather wrapped steering wheel ? Did they get rid of the wood ? The sky roof does not open …. It’s like the Toyota Venza
Are we getting this as a Toyota too??
Sequoia
It’s LC Prado
Sorry for the confusion… is the US market getting the Toyota version of the GX, ie the updated not yet announced Toyota Land Cruiser Prado
@@Notourtube it’s being considered but it will be too similar to 4Runner if they do bring it here
@@chezzyperson3339 4runner in asia is toyota fortuner, so lc prado for american isnt 4runner but gx because we in asia that lexus barely sell it in asia mb not in middle east asia
Sucks I need 8000 lb towing but want ML stereo . Sucks u can’t get in a premium plus
Dang it no red interior oh well
