2025 Lexus GX 550 Overtrail 4dr SUV Exterior

+354

The 2025 Lexus GX is a luxury SUV with distinctive styling and, with the Overtrail trim, enhanced off-road capability. We recommend it especially if you want something with an outdoorsy vibe. But be aware that it suffers from subpar mpg and a cramped third-row seat.Read full review

Overview

by the Edmunds Experts

1/21/2025

Lexus sells a wide variety of SUVs. If you want one that looks tough and has some off-road capability to back it up, the 2025 Lexus GX could be just the thing. This is a midsize luxury SUV that Lexus redesigned just last year. It balances its truck-based design with many luxury amenities to become a compelling do-it-all vehicle.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2025 Lexus GX 550 Premium 4dr SUV 4WD (3.4L 6cyl Turbo 10A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.49 per gallon for premium unleaded in Texas.}

Edmunds spotlight: A legit off-roader with panache

Lexus took a deliberate and distinct path with the GX's features, sorting them into packages that help buyers determine the SUV's character based on their preferences. Every 2025 GX has four-wheel drive and low-range gearing to help you out on more challenging dirt roads or trails. The Overtrail and Overtrail+ trims come with all-terrain tires and a locking rear differential to enhance available traction. For a more luxury-oriented experience, you can also get the GX with features such as massaging front seats and a 21-speaker sound system.

Competitors to consider

A good alternative to the Lexus GX is the Land Rover Defender 110. Like the GX, it offers serious off-road capabilities along with plenty of upscale luxury features. Beyond that, you might check out less expensive options such as the Toyota Land Cruiser (which is related to the GX) or bigger luxury SUVs such as the Lexus LX or Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Great

8.1

out of 10

We drove the 2025 Lexus GX on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.^{The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.}

Performance

8/10

How does the GX drive? The GX's turbocharged V6 and 10-speed transmission form a potent pairing. In our testing, the GX accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in a competitive 6.7 seconds. There's plenty of power for passing slower traffic or merging onto a highway. It's also smooth and responsive around town.

Handling isn't this big SUV's forte. When pushed, there's noticeable body roll, though you won't feel like you're out of control. Off-road is where the GX can shine. The Overtrail version comes with some extra features, such as a locking rear differential, to give this SUV better-than-average capability.

Comfort

8.5/10

How comfortable is the GX? The GX is unfazed when driving over broken pavement. Its suspension does a great job of sorting out bumps and keeping the cabin serene. The cabin is also very quiet at highway speeds, except for a bit of wind noise off the tall side mirrors. The seats across the first two rows are all supportive and comfortable. The third-row bench seat is mounted low to the floor, however, resulting in a knees-in-the-air seating position.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? There is less second-row room than you'd think given the GX's size, and the third row is very cramped. As a five-passenger vehicle, the GX is passable, but if you want to carry any more than that, you'll need to be prepared to field some complaints from the peanut gallery. The GX is a high-riding vehicle, but the running boards and grab handles can help shorter drivers get in.

The GX's dashboard has all of the controls you'd need to use frequently within easy reach. We are less fond of the climate controls. They are located at the bottom of the touchscreen, so the usable area of the screen is diminished, but at least you're not digging into menus to activate things like the heated or cooled front seats. Overall visibility is pretty good, and the available surround-view camera system helps out when parking or driving off-road.

Build & Price

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? The infotainment system, shared between many Toyota and Lexus products these days, is easy to use and generally responsive. The navigation maps are a touch laggy compared to what you'll get if you connect your phone and use the wireless Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. Voice commands work well, but they don't have the same level of functionality as the voice systems in the latest BMW and Mercedes vehicles.

There's a long list of standard driver assist technology. But the integration of some of these systems is not very user-friendly. For example, the driver attention monitor is located atop the steering column. If you drive with a hand on top of the steering wheel, be prepared for constant notifications to sit up because the camera can't see your face. Also, the available low-speed hands-free driving system only works up to 25 mph. Because of that, it activates and deactivates constantly in congested traffic. It's more annoying to use than just keeping a hand on the wheel.

Storage

7.5/10

How’s the storage? Three-row versions of the GX do not have a lot of storage when all of the seats are up: just 10.3 cubic feet. That expands to a more helpful 40.2 cubic feet with the third row folded; dropping the second-row opens up 76.9 cubic feet. Cargo space is much better in the two-row Overtrail trims, which don't have the third-row seat. The only caveat is that the load-in height for the cargo area is pretty high and it can be a struggle getting heavier items up there.

Interior storage spaces for small items take a hit if you opt for the cooled center console because it makes that storage bin quite small — though it's still large enough to fit three or four cans of whatever it is you need to keep cold. There are decently sized door pockets, but the front of the car especially lacks spots to put any items other than a phone.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

6.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? The GX's powertrain and full-time 4WD system don't make it particularly efficient, with an EPA-estimated 17 mpg combined (15 city/21 highway). On our real-world evaluation route, we observed a better figure than that at 19.8 mpg. But if you plan to take the GX off-road, be ready for those numbers to drop precipitously.

Value

7.5/10

Is the GX a good value? Because of its Lexus-grade interior and solid build quality, the GX is a quite luxurious way to go off-roading. Pricing for the Overtrail versions is a bit eye-opening, though; there are definitely cheaper ways to drive around in the dirt. But if you want an SUV that's big on style and refinement, the GX will easily seem worth it.

Wildcard

9/10

We don't usually think of Lexus as having the coolest designs. But the GX not only looks fantastic, it has the driving chops to back it up. Its powertrain delivers effortless power, and though the Overtrail models are built to be very capable off-roaders, they don't sacrifice any on-road dynamics or luxury in the bargain. The GX is a vehicle that you'll be excited to drive each time you get behind the wheel.

Which GX does Edmunds recommend?

We think the base Premium offers enough capability and standard features to satisfy most buyers shopping in this category. If you frequently venture off the beaten path, consider getting the Overtrail model for its all-terrain tires and locking rear differential.

2024 Lexus GX 550 Luxury+ 4dr SUV 4WD (3.4L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

Great looking exterior but interior is lacking - nav system blurs out up top and steering wheel is like trying to grip a wet bar of soap to the point of being dangerous when turning. If steering wheel is leather it is very cheap. Spoke to dealer and they had no answers. Overall the interior of GX is much closer now to 4 runner than the smaller version of the LX that it used to be. Not …

2024 Lexus GX 550 Luxury+ 4dr SUV 4WD (3.4L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

I traded a 2020 RR Sport HST for my new 2024 GX 550 Lux+. They’re both great in their own way. I like my GX, but there are a few things that Lexus got wrong: 1) sunroof that doesn’t vent…ridiculous, 2) lack of storage space for front driver or passenger…nowhere to store things, and 3) annoyingly small gas tank, poor gas mileage…with only premium fuel. The looks are good, the ride is …

2024 Lexus GX 550 Overtrail 4dr SUV 4WD (3.4L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

Love the GX 550 overtrail. Have owned two previous GX 460's and this model far exceeds the 460. The cabin exceeds my expectations and the new engine is great. MPG not the greatest but I suspect most people don't buy these for MPG savings. Love the Overtrail as the third row available on the Luxury appears useless to me....if you need a third row buy a minivan. Overall, love the …

2024 Lexus GX 550 Luxury+ 4dr SUV 4WD (3.4L 6cyl Turbo 10A)

One of the best looking suvs on the market hands down. The body on frame makes it a rougher ride than the defender and the variable suspension doesn't do a ton to help it. A few new model quirks that will absolutely get ironed out in the future. Massage seats are best in class (accessing them on the dash is a pain though). I don't know if the luxury + is worth the price but more options …
