The 2024 GX's interior strikes a nice balance between Lexus luxury and a squarish truck-like feel. It's kind of like a Japanese G-Wagen in here. As you'd expect, this 14-inch touchscreen comes standard on all trims; no need to upgrade in order to get it. (Photo: Lexus)

The reinvented 2024 GX 550 is one of the world's most desirable luxury off-roaders, immediately vaulting to the head of this class alongside the Land Rover Defender 110 and all other comers. Note that all trims except the Overtrail (covered separately) come standard with three rows of seats.

2. 2024 Lexus GX 550 Overtrail (3.4T 2-Row)

  • Base Price: $67,900
  • MPG Combined: 17
  • Drive Type: Four-wheel drive
  • Engine: 3.4-liter V6
  • Aspiration: Turbocharged
  • Transmission: 10-speed automatic
  • Horsepower: 349

  • Length: 197.1 in
  • Towing Capacity: 9,096 lbs

Putting even more emphasis on off-road-readiness than the standard GX550, the 2024 GX 550 Overtrail deletes the third-row seat and comes standard with a special kind of tires — 33-inch all-terrains — that you'd normally have to order from a tire shop. You also get a lockable rear differential, extra terrain modes with a terrain monitor system, crawl and downhill-assist control, and the latest version of KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System), which is technically called E-KDSS because it can electronically detatch the front or rear anti-roll bar — or both bars at once. That's a whole lot of off-roady goodness for the money, and for us, it's more than enough to make up for that missing third-row seat.
