Everything You Need To Know About The 2025 Lexus GX

2025 Lexus GX Overtrail Sometimes, you need an SUV that feels like a luxury vehicle on a road trip. Other times, you want to leave civilization behind and take a 4x4 vehicle off road. It's not always easy to find one that works in both situations, but the 2025 Lexus GX ticks all the boxes. Debuting with an all-new body style in 2024, the Lexus GX features an attractive boxy shape and impressive capability both on- and off-road. Every Lexus GX is equipped with a turbocharged 3.4-liter V6 making 349 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque, offering plenty of get-up-and-go for everything from smooth highways to rocky trails. The GX has long been a favorite in the off-road community, and it doesn't seem that will change any time soon. Take a look at my list of pros and cons below. 2025 Lexus GX Overtrail Lexus GX Pro: Trims For Luxury And Adventure The Lexus GX is available in six trim levels: Premium, Premium+, Luxury, Luxury+, Overtrail, and Overtrail+. Those who don't plan to stray from pavement will be fine with the first four options and can choose the best version for them depending on how many amenities they want. For instance, a heated steering wheel is standard on GX Premium+ and massaging chairs start at Luxury level. Overtrail and Overtrail+ include all of the standard features on the Premium model, adding 18-inch wheels, a dynamic suspension system, off-road-focused drive modes, and a surround-view camera for safety on the trail. Plus--and this is important when you're hauling gear--the third row is deleted for these two trims, freeing up cargo space in the rear. And it's a significant difference: 45.6 cubic feet in Overtrail and Overtrail+ variants versus a minimalist 10.3 cubic feet in the trims that include three rows. 2025 Lexus GX Overtrail interior Lexus GX Pro: Luxurious And Streamlined Interior Lexus designers do a spectacular job creating a vehicle that competes with the likes of the Infiniti QX80 and Land Rover Defender. One of my favorite available features is the 'cool box' in the console that works like a small cooler to keep your drinks and snacks cold. It's a great place for chocolate, too. Heated and ventilated seats are standard even on the base GX, which is a nice touch. There's a handy 120-volt household outlet in the cargo area for appliances or camping gear. Upgrade to the Luxury+ trim for truly premium amenities like an adjustable-tint glass sunroof and a 21-speaker Mark Levinson audio system. 2025 Lexus GX map graphics are crisp and clear Lexus GX Pro: Technology Is Intuitive And Current Every GX has a 14-inch touchscreen with the newest infotainment technology available from the Toyota group. It was a big deal when Lexus replaced its glitchy touchpad with the new touchscreen in 2021, and I've been impressed with it ever since. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included, and the climate controls are set up smartly at the bottom of the screen. I like the way the climate knobs are lit and large enough to turn easily. Using the infotainment system is simple and not oversaturated with deep menu options. Interior of the Lexus GX Lexus GX Con: A Few Cabin Functionality Issues The vents are maddeningly inflexible, which drove me crazy in the Texas heat. I wanted the air to blow right on my face to cool me off, and I couldn't seem to get it just where I wanted it. Minor, but when you live in the South it's an important distinction. Lexus GX Con: Fuel Economy Is Middling The GX is powered by an internal combustion engine that's punchy and quick, and scaling mid-size rocky hills with no problems. It's not known for its fuel economy, however. The EPA estimates the GX is good for 15 mpg in the city and 21 mpg on the highway, not to mention that premium fuel is recommended. If a fuel-sipping vehicle is a priority for you, take a look at the four-cylinder-powered Toyota Land Cruiser instead. Lexus GX Verdict: Definitely More Pros Than Cons For 2025, the Lexus GX carries on as a stellar SUV for off- and on-road luxury. If you're an adventurer, don't think twice about choosing Overland or Overland+, and you won't be disappointed.

2025 Lexus LX700h Overtrail First Test: The LX Achieves Its Final Form Without Compromise

Pros Looks cool Very capable off-road Excellent fit and finish Cons Gruff powertrain On-road behavior needs work Not fuel efficient If you're going to buy a Lexus LX SUV, then you might as well go for the new off-road-focused Overtrail trim level. That's because the full-size LX is an old-school, off-road-focused SUV out of the box, with body-on-frame construction, low-range gearing, and a live rear axle. Lexus dresses up most of the LX family in street clothes, however, and even offers—puzzlingly—an F Sport trim level that isn't really sporty but if piloted that way might elicit a surprised 'F—!' from an unsuspecting driver. But every LX, at its core, is an Overtrail waiting to be unleashed, to be gifted a set of off-road tires so it can devote itself to a life in the dirt. AI Quick Summary The 2025 Lexus LX700h Overtrail trim enhances off-road capability without sacrificing on-road performance. It features a hybrid powertrain with 457 hp, improved fuel efficiency, and unique off-road tires. Priced from $113,700, it balances luxury with ruggedness for off-road enthusiasts. This summary was generated by AI using content from this MotorTrend article Read Next 0:00 / 0:00 This isn't to bag on the LX (well, kind of) but more to highlight that if you're willing to tolerate old-timey off-road SUV drawbacks like wallowing on-road behavior, body lean, easily unsettled suspension, high floor, and substantial thirst for fuel, then you might as well maximize off-road capability. The Overtrail is therefore the most spiritually whole LX you can buy, and now we have test data proving that its off-road upgrades don't detract from its objective performance much, if at all. A Hybrid in Name The Overtrail isn't the only new entrant to the LX lineup for 2025. This year, the LX600 and its 3.4-liter twin-turbo V-6, which has been on sale since 2022, are joined by the LX700h hybrid, which uses an electrified version of the same engine. The Overtrail trim is only offered for the LX700h, whereas other LX trim levels can be had regardless of powertrain choice. Power for the 700h rises to 457 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque, up from 409 hp and 479 lb-ft in the LX600. Fuel efficiency rises by 2 mpg city (from 17 mpg to 19), enough to drag the combined rating up 1 mpg (from 19 mpg to 20). The LX600 and LX700h share a 22-mpg highway rating. We suspect the Overtrail's off-road tires and other changes will likely blunt the hybrid's mileage benefits; in our week of real-world driving, we saw roughly 13 mpg. Expect less driving range, too—the LX700h's fuel tank shrinks from the LX600's 21.1-gallon size to only 18.0 gallons. Lexus hybridizes the LX700h's V-6 by adding an electric motor between the engine and its transmission, where it replaces a traditional torque converter. Unlike the similar hybrid V-6 used in Toyota's Tundra pickup and Sequoia SUV, the Lexus version runs on premium fuel and includes a separate alternator and starter motor rather than relying purely on the electric drive motor for those functions. Lexus powers the setup with a small nickel-metal hydride battery that eats up some of the underfloor cargo space behind the second-row seats (and is responsible for the fuel tank's shrinkage). Although at times smoother in operation than the regular twin-turbo six in the LX600, the hybrid setup sometimes shines a harsher light on the otherwise gruff and grainy engine. That's because you're treated to moments where the V-6 isn't running, such as when it winks off at a stoplight or at steady low-speed cruising around town. It's these periods of silent, buttery smoothness from the powertrain that make the vibrations and noises that intrude when the engine refires seem that much less sophisticated. The old LX's V-8, while much less powerful and even less fuel efficient, at least was more Lexus-like in operation. But the Hybrid Is Quicker, Right? Right … ? Lexus says the LX700h should hit 60 mph from a stop in 6.4 seconds. Our test data shows it's zippier than that, reaching 60 mph in 6.2 seconds—far ahead of the ostensibly 'sportier' 2022 LX600 F Sport's 6.7-second result. (We also tested a 2022 LX600 Luxury that somehow did the deed in 6.1 seconds despite being heavier than the identically powered LX600 F Sport.) Remember, the LX700h Overtrail also rides on chunky 18-inch Toyo Open Country all-terrain rubber (sized 265/70R18)—we suspect non-Overtrail models equipped with more streetable tires would further improve performance (accelerative and otherwise) over their LX600 equivalents. While the Toyos don't add noticeable din to the cabin at highway speeds, you can feel them scrub a little more when taking corners enthusiastically. Same LX, for Better or Worse As for this street-second LX700h Overtrail's objective braking and handling figures, they aren't as far behind as you might expect. Despite weighing some 300 pounds more than the LX600s we've tested (all hybrids are about that much heavier than their gas-only LX equivalents) and those beefy tires, the Overtrail halts from 60 mph in 135 feet—just 1 foot shorter than the LX600 Luxury we've tested and only 7 feet longer than the F Sport. Thanks to the rear-mounted battery, the LX700h is slightly better balanced than the LX600s, with this Overtrail stressing its front tires with only 51 percent of its mass, compared to 53 percent for the LX600 Luxury and 52 percent for the LX600 F Sport. That might be why the Overtrail and its trail tires hung on for 0.68 g average on the skidpad, a mere 0.05 g shy of the LX600 Luxury (the F Sport's sportier rubber garners a stickier 0.75 g) and in line with, say, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class. The overall point we're getting at here is that outside of the numbers, which aren't bad considering the off-road-focused tires and suspension, the actual experience of piloting an LX700h Overtrail in the real world is about as rowdy and trucklike as any regular LX. It feels perched high, with a suspension that allows nautical levels of body lean, brake dive, and acceleration squat. Although the thick-sidewall Toyo tires smooth out most pavement cracks and smaller imperfections, smacking speed bumps or larger-amplitude whoops at any real speed overwhelms the suspension, as each end of the LX responds differently. The independently sprung front end sops up the impact but allows some fore-aft pitching—enough that the live rear axle can load up before meeting the same bump, limiting its travel and allowing it to slam hard into its bump stops. That pitches the body forward, continuing the untoward motions back and forth well after the speed bump is in your rearview mirror. But slow down to rock-crawling speeds, and the LX700h Overtrail's suspension articulation and pleasantly soft spring and damper rates eat up the ugly stuff (as we sampled in our first drive), even in the higher suspension height settings, keeping passengers mostly comfortable. The center Torsen differential can be locked, as can the front and rear axles. Drivers can switch between regular drive mode settings (Custom, Normal, Comfort, Eco, and the inexplicable Sport and Sport+ options), MTS off-road settings (Deep Snow, Mud, Sand, Dirt, or Auto), or DAC/Crawl low-speed cruise control options using handy physical toggle switches below the secondary touchscreen. And Yet … This gear is cool and all, and it all works—trouble is, most LX700h models, Overtrail or otherwise, are likely to spend most of their time on pavement and at speeds that exceed a walking pace. There, it'll wallow, heave this way and that, and go jittery over suboptimal road surfaces. But again, every other LX behaves the same way. Here, you're getting the appropriate off-road looks and wheels and tires to go along with the trucky behavior. It's a pairing that feels like the most cohesive of the LX family, though more general-purpose full-size luxury three-rows such as the Cadillac Escalade, Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and others meet or beat it in everyday comfort and utility. In many ways, this feels like the LX in its most final form—as the de facto stand-in for the full-size Land Cruiser that Toyota stopped selling here in favor of the smaller 250-series model. For fans of the old Land Cruisers, the LX is probably exactly what they're looking for. As a bonus, it includes improvements over those older models in the form of easier access to the third-row seat (through a wider opening and better-folding second-row chairs) even though those seats are slammed down low on the floor and are best for children. Speaking of, the LX isn't bad for carting around kiddos, with overhead air vents in the second and third rows (joined by center-console vents in the second row), and cupholders abound. Adding Lexus fit and finish and materials to the already good Toyota build quality is another upgrade potential Land Cruiser buyers would no doubt appreciate. Another bonus? The Overtrail is the least expensive LX700h you can buy, starting at as little as $113,700. (That price requires forgoing the otherwise standard third-row seat, which chops $1,750 from the price tag.) There is only one major factory option otherwise, the 2,400-watt, 25-speaker Mark Levinson audio system for $2,660. Fully loaded, as our test model was for $118,110, the Overtrail ends up priced at the low end of the LX lineup overall, LX600 included, making it the rare trim level that's both the one you want and not the most expensive.

Living with Lexus NX 350h Overtrail: 3 Pros and 2 Cons that you should know

The NX 350h Overtrail from Lexus features a plush suspension, rugged exterior styling, and efficient hybrid powertrain, but has drawbacks like inconsistent braking and cramped rear seating. Check Offers As hybrid SUVs grow in popularity, Lexus has taken a bold step by launching the NX 350h Overtrail—a variant aimed at those who appreciate both luxury and light off-road capability. Building on the strong foundation of the NX hybrid lineup, the Overtrail brings unique styling and a revised suspension setup, all without sacrificing the refined driving experience Lexus is known for. But while it certainly has the looks and the comfort to match its adventurous name, it isn't without its quirks. Here's a quick look at what makes the Overtrail stand out—and where it might fall short. What It Does Best: Pros of the NX 350h Overtrail 1. Plush Suspension Tuned for Comfort and Control The Overtrail's ride quality is among its standout features. It features Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) paired with 18-inch wheels and high-profile tyres which thick side walls. This setup cushions potholes and rough roads with remarkable ease, making it one of the most comfortable crossovers in its segment—especially over long distances or uneven terrain. Moreover, at highway speeds, there is no unnecessary up and down or floaty movement, the NX 350h remains composed and calm. By far, it is one of the best suspension setups that I have experienced. The Lexus NX 350h Overtrail is an adventure-centric edition of the otherwise luxury SUV. It is definitely a head turner out on the Indian roads. 2. Rugged Yet Elegant Exterior Styling With its exclusive Moon Desert paint, matte-black accents, and a bolder stance, the Overtrail carries a distinct identity. While it evokes a rugged, outdoorsy character, the blacked-out grille, fenders, and roof rails, it does not get short on luxury factor. Wherever, the NX 350h Overtrail goes, it turns heads. 3. Efficient Hybrid Powertrain with AWD Confidence The 2.5-litre petrol engine, working in tandem with electric motors. The engine puts out 237 bhp and the total torque output stands at 239 Nm. The front electric motor produces 270 Nm whereas the rear one produces 121 Nm. The electric AWD system (E-Four) delivers confident grip on slippery roads or light trails. It's not built for hardcore off-roading, offcourse but on open roads, there is no lack of power, the SUV pulls strongly and immediately, thanks to those electric motors. In fact, it delivered a fuel efficiency of around 15 kmpl to us which is quite impressive for a 1.8-tonne SUV. Also Read : Lexus NX 350h Overtrail Review: For the sophisticated adventurer Where It Falls Short: Cons of the NX 350h Overtrail 1. Inconsistent Braking Feel One of the most common complaints revolves around the braking system. The regenerative braking setup can feel jerky or inconsistent, especially at low speeds. Transitioning from regen to mechanical braking isn't always smooth, which might be unsettling in stop-and-go traffic until you adapt to it. It just lacks the confidence, and the driver needs to press the brake pedal quite a bit before the speeds start shedding. The rear doors could open slightly wider to aid ingress and egress. The legroom is also limited. 2. Cramped rear seat experience Despite its generous exterior proportions, the rear seat space in the Lexus NX 350h Overtrail feels somewhat cramped, especially for taller passengers. The sloping roofline and bulky front seats eat into headroom and knee room, making the second row less accommodating than one might expect in a mid-size luxury SUV. While the seat cushioning and backrest angle are comfortable for short trips, the limited legroom and relatively narrow cabin width can make long journeys feel tight for three adults across the back. It's clear the NX prioritizes style and front-seat comfort over rear-seat spaciousness, which could be a drawback for families or those who frequently travel with rear passengers.

Lexus NX 350h Overtrail Review: For the sophisticated adventurer

The Lexus nametag has always been synonymous with craftsmanship and performance, and the Lexus NX 350h does not hesitate to showcase that pedigree at all. We got our hands on the Overtrail trim, which slots right in between the lineup, under the F-Sport and Luxury trims and above the Exquisite, priced at ₹ 71.88 lakh (ex-showroom). This Japanese SUV reveals its character gradually, from bold design choices to surprising driving behaviour. But does it really prove all that it claims? Here's our in-depth take after testing the car for over 1,000 km over 4 days. Lexus NX 350h Overtrail Review: Design and exterior highlights The design of the NX 350h is one of the biggest talking points out of all things. Built by design veterans called 'Takumi' masters, the car features a contrast of sharp lines blended with soft curves. At first glance, the car feels unique and stands out from regular traffic. Looking closely, you will see ample use of triangles all around the exterior. The front gets the iconic Lexus grille as well as familiarly shaped headlamps that resemble winged eyes, flanked by wide, muscular fenders. This makes the car look bold yet beautiful at the same time. The fascia of the car blends beauty aling with boldness. Moving on towards the rear, the SUV gets a slightly sloping roof with a rear quarter glass that swoops out into a triangle. The car becomes slimmer at the rear and is less angular. This makes it look more mature, handsome and the connected tail lamp makes the car look modern without trying. The exclusive metallic 'Moon Desert' paint shade of the Overtrail trim tends to have a polarising effect; some will love it while others have called it ugly, without any filter. However, you realise the beauty of the paint shade after you've spent some time with it. Another perk is how well the paint hides dust due to its earthy shade, even after long stints on unpaved roads. Some other key elements which are only available on the Overtrail edition include blacked out elements like the Spindle grille, door mirrors, door frames and door belt moulding, roof rails and outside door handles. The alloys have also been blacked out to take on the rough terrains and there are now meatier profile tyres, which helped in improving the overall ride quality over unpaved roads. Lexus NX 350h Overtrail Review: Interior The interior of the NX 350h is one of the most well-put-together cabins ever. The fit and finish of materials and, most importantly, attention to consumer convenience enhance the luxury quotient you experience inside the SUV. The driver gets the most attention in the car with the infotainment screen tilted towards them and most of the car's controls well within reach without having to add in extra effort. The steering-mounted controls, for example, feature buttons with a touch sensor that recognises if the thumb is placed onto a certain button. When a finger is placed on the button, it is highlighted on the heads-up display (HUD), allowing the driver to focus on the road even during operation. To activate the button, however, one needs to press it like a normal button, which gives proper feedback, and the functionality of each switch can be set according to your own choice too. Another very interesting touch on the NX 350h is the soft opening and closing windows, making you feel respected in a very Japanese way. The car even prompts the driver when touching speeds above 100 kmph with a 'Do you want to close all windows?' message. This is convenience at its finest, rarely seen in other vehicles. Even in its darker shade the interiors of the Lexus NX 350h Overtrail feel very luxurious. At the centre of the dashboard is a large 14 inch touchscreen for infotainment, with the invaluable manual volume and pause/play rotating knob. However, going through all the functions of the vehicle on the infotainment and remembering what's placed where requires a slight learning curve. Flanking this display on both lower edges are the controls for the dual zone climate-control system, also with rotational knobs and a small display at the centre of each knob, to display the temperature each side is currently set to. Looking below the display on the centre console is the electronic shifter-type gear selector. There are also a few buttons which allow the driver to choose from EV mode, trail mode, and switch traction control on or off. The sound insulation inside the cabin is also commendable; the quietness can be gauged from the fact that the horn of the vehicle itself is barely audible in there. During our drive, we also found it oddly difficult to communicate with passengers seated in the back, even if the music volume was set to low. Coming to the seats, they feature colours from a Monolith palette, and the front seats feel special with their electronic adjustments. The front seats also offer plenty of support to the person seated through corners and even the undulated patches of the road. The story starts getting a little cramped as we move towards the rear seats. These seats get a very comfortable recline angle along with enough room to seat three, but the passengers will crave a little more legroom when the front seats are pulled back. The rear doors could open slightly wider to aid ingress and egress. Spending some time at the rear also makes you hotter, quite literally! The car gets Eco air conditioning mode, which turns off airflow to the rear vents. But even with this setting turned off, the air conditioner blower could use some improvement in the rear seats. Other features inside the cabin, like the wooden textured door trim exclusive to the Overtrail edition, the customisable ambient lighting and even the UV and IR cut panoramic sunroof make the environment much more habitable. A special shout-out goes to the subtle yet beautiful sounding alerts of the car for things like seat belt fastening and speed reminders. Lexus NX 350h Overtrail Review: How does it drive? The overall driving experience of the NX 350h condensed into a single word may very well be described as 'exuberant'. Even with a CVT, the 1.8-tonne Japanese SUV gets a move on without any drama. Once you put your foot down, the engine growls to about 6000 rpm and stays there, making you feel energetic while the speedo gradually climbs the digits. You do not feel the rubber band effect of the CVT until you switch to Sport/Sport+ driving mode and demand a lot of performance from the transmission. Power comes from a 4-cylinder, 2.5-litre hybrid, which is capable of putting out a combined 237 bhp at 6,000 rpm along with a total engine torque of 239 Nm from 4,300 to 4,500 rpm. There are two electric motors on the Overtrail variant, which make 270 Nm torque at the front and 121 Nm torque at the rear wheels, giving the NX an instant, grippy feel off the line and enabling EV-only climbs on modest gradients. This allows the SUV to tackle decently graded slopes even in EV mode. The instant torque from the motors assisting is also evident when you launch the car in Sport mode. The SUV puts power down to all wheels thanks to its electric motors The handling of the NX 350h is enhanced by its phenomenal suspension setup. Taking turns even on twisty mountain roads was easy as pie for this SUV, and body roll was very well contained as well. However, the car felt nervous while changing lanes at highway speeds. This could be due to the fact that the review unit which we received had a slight alignment issue, which is an issue that can be fixed, of course. The Overtrail edition glides through rough patches with unexpected grace. The SUV didn't really bounce around much and surprised us with how well it can absorb most bumps. This is owed to the higher ground clearance of the Overtrail edition, built on Lexus's Light Duty Truck platform and the Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) system of the car. Part credit also goes to the chunky rubber sidewalls of the smaller-than-regular 18-inch alloys provided on the Overtrail variant. The SUV takes on undulated roads with ease. Braking on the NX 350 is not its strongest suit; it feels touchy at slower speeds, which we suspected is the regen kicking in a little too strongly, but it lacks confidence when you hit the pedal suddenly. The bonnet nosedive is not very prominent while braking, which helps the cause, but only to an extent. An emergency stop does require a decent amount of force on the brake pedal, which doesn't correspond with the initial touchiness, leaving you constantly adjusting your expectations. Lexus NX 350h Overtrail Review: What can be better implemented? Although the NX 350h checks all the boxes, nitpicking is crucial to perfect a product. Apart from the things mentioned above, there are still some more things which the NX 350h could be better at. For instance, the SUV's decent high-beam performance could be slightly improved. The car gets a walk-away locking system on the boot but not otherwise, which is a common feature on most modern vehicles. Taking the key out to lock the car manually with the key fob or touching the door handle to lock the car every time in 2025 feels tedious and takes away the 'luxury' quotient from the car. Lexus NX 350h Overtrail Review: Verdict The Lexus NX 350h Overtrail proves to be a very strong partner for most adventures. With the help of the hybrid system, the car can cover long distances, delivering great fuel efficiency. Apart from this, driving the vehicle in EV mode on the mountains keeps you guilt-free as compared to a traditional ICE-powered car, where you are leaving behind a huge carbon footprint. However, this is a benefit you only begin to appreciate once you've lived with an alternative-fuel vehicle. The SUV rides smoothly, and the suspension allows you to take on mild off-road trails as well as unpaved roads with comfort, making it suitable for the requirements of modern adventure seekers. The NX 350h Overtrail doesn't clamour for attention, but earns your respect quietly over time. It is luxury with substance, built for those who value depth over dazzle.
