On June 9, the new Lexus GX was officially launched. the car, together with the new Lande Cool Luze, is based on the TNGA-F architecture and is upgraded for appearance, interior and power. a total of six models are available in Premium, Premium+, Luxury, Luxury+, Overtrail and Overtrail+. It is understood that the new car is scheduled to be first launched in overseas markets in early 2024 and is expected to be introduced into the Chinese market again. As a reference, the guiding price of the 2015 Lexus GX that has been suspended in the Chinese market is 848000 yuan.
In terms of appearance, the overall shape of the new Lexus GX is more square than the previous generation of models, although the net still has the outline of a spindle-shaped grille, but the blackened polygonal intake grille uses a large number of straight line elements inside, and the trapezoidal layout is also used in front of the bottom, so the visual effect is stronger than the old model. The L-shaped daytime driving lights with horizontal layout are adopted on both sides, and there are three LED light sources above, basically in accordance with the design style of the Lexus family. It is worth mentioning that the new generation of GX does not provide the F-Sport suite, but the Overtrail off-road suite.
On the side of the body, the new Lexus GX is built in an angular design language, with a straight waistline extending from the front to the rear, and a concave design under the door panel to create a sense of strength. In addition, the A-pillar design is also more vertical, providing a better driving view. In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4950/1980/1865mm and the wheelbase is 2850mm. In terms of the rear, the new Lexus GX continues the styling profile of the front, the taillights adopt the popular penetrating design, the rear windshield glass can be opened separately, and the hidden exhaust layout is adopted, and the function is also equipped with electric rear door and kick opening function.
In terms of interior decoration, the new car still presents the aura of a tough guy through straight lines, with a 12.3inch full LCD dashboard and a 14-inch central control screen, which can support wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mobile phone interconnection, some models also have HUD head display function, and the multi-function steering wheel is still Lexus family-style design. At the same time, the new GX also offers six-seat and seven-seat layout, and comes standard with front seat heating and seat ventilation, some models will be equipped with the second row seat heating and the third row seat electric adjustment function.
On the power side, the GX 550s will be powered by a 3.5T V6 twin-turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 354hp and a maximum torque of 649Nm, matched with a 10AT gearbox, a full-time all-wheel drive system, a Tolson central differential lock and an electronically controlled transmission box, with a traction force of up to 8000 pounds. In addition, a hybrid version of 2.4T engine and motor will be launched in the future, with a transmission matching 8AT gearbox, which is expected to be unveiled this year.
The first generation of Lexus GX 470s, unveiled at the 2002 North American Auto Show, is built on the same platform as Toyota Prado and has a lot in common in mechanical structure and body structure, with a 4.7L V8 engine, establishing a tough guy temperament. At the 2009 Guangzhou Auto Show, Lexus unveiled the second-generation GX model: GX 460. the name change means that the engine has changed from 4.7L V8 to 4.6L V8, with a maximum power of 301hp and a maximum torque of 446N ·m, which matches the 6AT gearbox. It is worth mentioning that this generation of models have also been introduced to the domestic market, with a price as high as 1.16 million yuan. In 2012, Lexus launched the GX 400s for the Chinese market, with a 4.0L V6 engine matched with a five-speed automatic transmission, and the price dropped to 923000 yuan. In 2013, the Lexus GX model ushered in a medium-term modification, all replaced with the latest Lexus family face, the overall aura has been further improved.
Lexus GX has always been a tough + luxury image, but its audience is mainly concentrated in the North American market and sold in the Chinese market as an import. The overpriced Lexus GX is difficult to enter the list of cars chosen by ordinary consumers. Of course, from the market point of view, the new Lexus GX is younger and hardline, and if there is a more moderate pricing in the domestic market in the future, it may have a certain impact on the Land Rover Guardian and Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
