The use of a smaller engine also helps up the efficiency, with the V6 managing a manufacturer-estimated combined rating of 17 MPG. That's better than the predecessor's combined rating of 16 MPG.

The Lexus GX platform is known for its off-road prowess, and the 2024 Lexus GX is no different. It boasts the GA-F platform introduced on the current generation LX 600. The use of this lightweight and strong ladder frame helps increase body rigidity and on-road handling.

Lexus also fits the 2024 GX with a newly developed double-wishbone front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension for a high level of on-road prowess and off-road driving performance. The 2024 Lexus GX also gets full-time four-wheel drive as standard, making it responsive in all terrains thanks to a Torsen limited-slip center differential with a locking feature.

The GX is one of the oldest nameplates from Lexus, and it offers unbeatable off-roading capabilities. For the 2024 model year, Lexus reintroduces the GX with a new exterior with an unmistakable, aggressive design. This new design exudes the tough, rugged persona of the GX nameplate.

Like its predecessors, the 2024 Lexus GX is still a body-on-frame SUV, but it shares its GA-F platform with the new LX 600. The 2024 Lexus GX introduces a boxy body profile with a horizontal design motif. Its overall width increases by 3.74 inches and 4.52 inches in the Overtrail trim.
