The 2024 Lexus GX 550 Luxury+ Is The Ultimate Posh Land Cruiser For The Road

Рет қаралды 286,911

Күн бұрын

At long last, the #LexusGX has been fully redesigned for 2024 after a nearly 15 year long run on the previous generation. The #LexusGX550 is now built on the latest GA-F body-on-frame design and the thirsty old 4.6L V8 has been replaced by a twin-turbo 3.4L V6. #Lexus also gave the newest #GX550 a design that is both handsome, rugged, and timeless, while the interior finally moves the new #GX into the modern era with a massive 14" touch screen and a fully digital 12.3" instrument cluster.

Happy Thursday everyone! We’ve got a two video post today and after you’re done watching this Luxury+, be sure to also watch our full review on the off-road ready Overtrail+ trim! Which trim would you guys choose for yourself?

@The_Stanman 3 ай бұрын

You said in the video the upcoming hybrid will have the 2.4L iForce Max with 10-speed - is that true? I've only seen with the old 6-speed. That would addess the main downside of that powertrain IMO. The TX350 gets far better highway mpg than 500h bc it has the 8-speed instead of the old 6-speed.

@howlingwolf125y 3 ай бұрын

As a taller (6' 2") driver, the big problem that I have noticed in newer vehicles is the lack of safe visibility out of the front windshield. They try to put the safety monitoring equipment in a black box at the top middle of the windshield.. And now Lexus made that black box even bigger.. see at (24:20).. Unfortunately, now the location of that black box (plus the rearview mirror itself) really hurts the drivers own ability to view out for safe driving. When it comes to safe driving, I trust my own eyes and vision much more than techie safety monitoring devices at the top middle part of the windshield. You would be surprised at how important that whole top middle part of the windshield is for good, safe driving visibility. They need to find another place on the vehicle to put safety monitoring devices so you can look out of the front windshield safely.

@Michael-li3id 3 ай бұрын

and now it needs premium fuel because it's a direct injection twin turbo. Since premium costs 30% more than 87 octane, this equates to 13mpg (when using cost per mile, which is a much more useful figure than MPG in a world where most cars require premium)
