the 2025 lexus gx gets a couple new features and a slight price bump

The 2024 Lexus GX marked a significant step forward for the beefy luxury SUV, as it was the model’s first generational overhaul since 2010. Lexus is making further improvements for 2025, though they come with a slight price bump over the outgoing model.

The 2025 GX 550 Premium starts at $65,285 including a $1,350 destination charge, which is just over $1,000 more than the 2024 model. The midrange Luxury trim starts at $77,750 after destination, while the range-topping Overtrail+ costs $80,395 before options. All models are expected to land on dealers’ lots early in 2025.

That extra cash buys a couple of newly standard features, including a memory system for the steering column and seats for all trims and a one-inch suspension lift for both Overtrail variants, bringing their minimum running ground clearance to 9.84 inches.

All GX trims come with a twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V6, which makes 349 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. That output reaches all four wheels through a ten-speed automatic transmission. Lexus rates most trims’ towing capacity at 9,063 pounds, but the Overtrail trim can tow three additional pounds.

Standard tech features include a 14-inch high-definition touchscreen with cloud navigation, voice commands, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, remote and cloud app features, a digital key system, and more. Lexus thankfully updated its infotainment interface prior to the new GX’s release, making it far easier to use and more responsive.

So the only changes are (besides higher price) an additional one inch of lift for one trim and memory for the tilt wheel which is pretty standard everywhere else. Was this even justified a press release? Another prime example of modern zero value.

Nay, nay gentlemen. A well-educated old girl will enjoy driving a Lexus that envelopes her in comfort and luxury and then she'll have a sly smile when she thinks about the costs of 10-year ownership.

  It remains to be seen if this iteration is going to be cost effective as the last, so far I'd say not given two important LED screens to fail, a 10 speed transmission and turbozzz powhaaaa. By the by, I saw 15mpg estimate for city driving - is that even an improvement over the previous reliable but thirsty V8?

Bar170111344 "GM was on track to spend $31.7 billion on compliance technology through 2031."I'll just mention, that expenditure would have gone into research and development, and that would have driven U.S. manufacturing innovation. On the industrial side, R&D is necessary for U.S. manufacturers to remain competitive in the world. It's absolutely no surprise China is running rings around us. The prospective $ savings GM is looking forward to hasn't impressed the stock market. Year-to-date return of -5.65%. -7.05% in the last month. PE 20:1, inflated by the falling share price. Not to be insulting by any stretch, but it has never been like Mary Barra to get out ahead of anything. She's not an innovator and not a risk taker. She's a good engineer.Honestly - in that industry, which I worked in for decades, being regulated is like having a security blanket. You can be mediocre, blame it on regulation, and still make a buck. And with the federal government now digging an even deeper moat around GM and Ford, it's clearly suppressing American innovation and excellence.
