Cons
- Uncomfortable second-row seats
- inconvenient side-swinging cargo door
- poor fuel economy.
What’s new
For 2014, the Lexus GX 460 gets updated exterior styling front and rear that includes new LED headlights and available LED foglights. A new 8-inch touchscreen interface, leatherette (NuLuxe) upholstery and trailer sway control are now standard, and advanced safety features including blind spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic warning systems are now offered as options. Finally, the price tag for the base model has been lowered to make room for a new top-of-the-line Luxury trim level.
Edmunds says
A traditional midsize SUV with three rows of seating, the 2014 Lexus GX 460 is capable off-road, yet manages to coddle its occupants on pavement. Still, most crossover SUVs offer better on-road performance and passenger comfort.

Vehicle overview
If you're searching for an SUV that can be refined and rugged at the same time, Lexus could very well have the answer with its 2014 GX 460. Blessed with just about everything from the Lexus luxury equipment playbook plus proven off-roading hardware, the GX 460 is as adept at providing a smooth, quiet ride to work as it is working its way up a remote mountain road. However, you'll want to give some thought to how much you'll actually use the 2014 Lexus GX 460's off-road capabilities before you choose this traditional midsize luxury SUV over one of the many seven-passenger crossovers in this price range.
On the sophistication side, the Lexus GX 460 boasts a posh seven-passenger interior and a long list of desirable standard features and advanced technology options. Underneath it all is the GX 460's beefy body-on-frame construction, full-time four-wheel drive and optional Crawl Control system. Together, they help the GX make short work of rough trails, though hard-core off-roaders should take note that this Lexus has less ground clearance than the Toyota 4Runner on which it's based and can't go as far off the beaten path as a result. Meanwhile, the GX's 301-horsepower V8 engine delivers a suitable amount of muscle for accelerating in traffic and towing loads of up to 6,500 pounds, and the available adaptive air suspension achieves a nice balance between a comfortable ride and secure handling.
Only a handful of luxury SUVs offer this much dual-use capability. One obvious alternative to the GX 460 is the 2014 Land Rover LR4, which is equally luxurious and capable. The LR4 also has an advantage in interior space, though it can't match the Lexus' reputation for reliability. The bigger question, however, is whether you truly need either of these vehicles' off-road prowess. If the answer is no, then we think you would do well to check out crossover SUV models like the seven-passenger 2014 Acura MDX, 2014 BMW X5 or 2014 Infiniti QX60. In general, these vehicles offer better performance and handling on pavement, improved fuel economy and more spacious interiors for people and cargo.
Performance & mpg
Under the hood of the 2014 Lexus GX 460 is a 4.6-liter V8 engine that puts out 301 hp and 329 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed automatic transmission is standard, as is a full-time four-wheel-drive system with a dual-range transfer case. Properly equipped, the GX 460 can tow up to 6,500 pounds.
In Edmunds testing, the GX 460 accelerated from zero to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds, an average time for a luxury SUV. EPA estimated fuel economy is underwhelming, however, at just 17 mpg combined (15 mpg city/20 mpg highway).
Safety
The 2014 Lexus GX 460 comes standard with antilock brakes, traction and stability control, hill descent control, hill start assist, a rearview camera, front- and rear-seat side airbags, driver and front passenger knee airbags, and side curtain airbags that cover all three rows. Also standard is Lexus Safety Connect emergency communications with automatic collision notification, stolen vehicle locator and emergency assist.
There are also a number of optional safety features, including blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alerts, a lane departure warning system and a frontal collision warning and preparation system (determines if a crash is imminent and automatically tightens the seatbelts and primes the braking system for a quicker response).
In Edmunds brake testing, the GX 460 came to a stop from 60 mph in 127 feet, an average distance for this segment.
Driving
For an SUV built on traditional body-on-frame underpinnings, the 2014 Lexus GX 460 delivers a ride quality that's a good bit smoother than you might expect. Handling around turns is secure, and the available adaptive suspension (which can be set in one of three modes from softer to firmer) helps out in this regard. That said, you'll likely find that many luxury crossover SUVs feel sportier and more confident around turns. In the city, the GX 460 also feels subtly more trucklike than most of these crossovers, as its steering and brakes feel a bit slow to respond -- a consequence of Lexus' attempt to tune them for both on- and off-road use.
Leave the pavement behind, though, and the Lexus GX 460's full-time four-wheel drive and available Crawl Control feature could very well make you feel invincible. Select one of Crawl Control's three speed presets and the computer takes over both the accelerator and brake pedal, leaving you to concentrate on steering the vehicle safely through a range of difficult obstacles with a minimum of fuss.
The GX 460's 4.6-liter V8 produces sufficient power for everyday driving, but can feel a little strained when called on to move the vehicle's bulk in situations like highway passing. The transmission is smooth, though it can occasionally be hesitant to downshift.
Interior
Inside, the 2014 Lexus GX 460 maintains a decidedly traditional look and forgoes the more modern widescreen monitor and Remote Touch interface that comes about in other, newer Lexus models. Still, the GX's cabin is attractive and nicely put together. It's hard to find fault with the quality of the soft leather and genuine wood trim that are standard in the top-of-the-line Luxury model, but the switch from leather to leatherette (premium vinyl) upholstery in the base model could be seen as a little low-rent for a vehicle in this price range. Front seats are plenty comfortable, but the hard and flat second-row bench is noticeably less so. As expected in a midsize SUV, the third-row seats are suitable for children only.
Gauges and displays are easy to see, especially the new 8-inch multimedia touchscreen that can be segmented into as many as three areas making it possible to, say, keep audio information and the navigation system's map visible at the same time. With the GX 460's long list of standard features and options, the controls might seem a little overwhelming at first, but everything is well-placed and operation is intuitive.
Folding the second- and third-row seats down creates a cargo hold with 64.7 cubic feet of space. Accessing that space can be complicated in curbside loading situations by the swing-out rear door that's hinged on the passenger side. However, the gate includes a convenient, lift-up rear glass window that makes it easier to load lightweight items like shopping bags.
2014 Lexus GX 460 models
The 2014 Lexus GX 460 is a seven-passenger luxury SUV offered in two trim levels: base and Luxury.

Inside you'll find dual-zone automatic climate control, leatherette upholstery, 10-way power front seats (with power lumbar), driver memory settings, sliding and reclining 40/20/40-split second-row seats, a 50/50-split third-row seat, a power tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a rearview camera, a 115-volt household-style power outlet, Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity, an 8-inch touchscreen display and a nine-speaker sound system with a CD player, satellite radio, HD radio and dual iPod/USB inputs.
Optional for the base model is the Premium package that bundles LED foglights, rain-sensing wipers, front and rear parking sensors, tri-zone automatic climate control, perforated leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, heated (outboard) second-row seats, a voice-controlled navigation system and Lexus Enform telematics.

Options on the Luxury model include a 17-speaker Mark Levinson surround-sound audio system, a rear-seat video entertainment system, and a Driver Support package that includes the off-road-oriented Crawl Control feature, automatic high beam control, adaptive cruise control (includes a pre-collision warning system), a lane departure warning system, additional front and side parking cameras and the Mark Levinson audio system.

This SUV is for people who want a luxury truck
4 out of 5 starsDavid S, 08/09/2017
2011 Lexus GX 460 4dr SUV 4WD (4.6L 8cyl 6A)
I own the older GX470 That was a car. This is a truck. Its basically a Landcruiser Prado in a tuxedo. Its big. It's comfortable. The stock radio is great. The Bluetooth is excellent . It's power train is smooth. ...I didn't say great. Here is the one problem. It's not underpowered. Not at all. The problem is the gear ratio. On moderating steep hills, whether going up or down, the … gearing is tuned for gas savings So there is no downshifting in time. In other words, the engine is laboring uphill wanting to get to higher rpm and then down hill it won't shift down for any engine breaking. Hard on breaks. The solution is to shift the knob over to manual and go up or down as needed. It's quite pleasant driving it that way. But that's me. I drove a shift for many years . I can see why some reviewers were freaked out by the too large gearing ratio. That being said this is a badass truck. If you keep your cars a long time like me, you will probably die before this vehicle does if you maintain it per schedule. I would want my kids to drive a Landcruiser or Prado over anything else on the planet for their comfort and safety They will likely inherit this one. That's why they are no cheap. That's why it's got 5 stars for reliability on most car websites. But the odd ratio gear tuning really does improve mpg. On the highway driving 65-70 I get a consistent 19.8 to 20.1 mpg Around town it's about 16 give or take a bit If you can deal with shifting yourself on steep hills, there is nothing more comfortable or reliable on the planet other than a Landcruiser or LX itself
Finally in love with my car
4.25 out of 5 stars3X GX owner, 12/01/2010
2011 Lexus GX 460 4dr SUV 4WD (4.6L 8cyl 6A)
I bought '03 and '07 GXs because it was the smallest vehicle that qualified for the extra tax write off for small business owners. I was never thrilled with the vehicles, but stuck with it for the tax advantage. Now I'm in a 2011GX and can finally say "I love my car". Some of the things that bugged me the most about my others have been corrected (see my favorite features). GPS & voice … recognition are greatly improved over the old one. Bluetooth clarity is much better. I'm a little OCD so I love being able to close up my Ipod, cover the radio, close the cup holders, fold rear seats, etc. It gives the interior a nice uncluttered look. De-icer will come in handy as well this winter.
Best all around utility for road and off road.

2013 Lexus GX 460 Premium 4dr SUV 4WD (4.6L 8cyl 6A)
In the last 3 years I have owned the Q7 tdi, BMW X5 disel, Acura MDX 2014. I avoided the GX the last two years due to the camry fascia they put on the truck but for this year they changed it to their new F grills. I can tell you right now out of the listed SUV the lexus handles just like the BMW X5 without the stiff steering and suspension with KDSS standard. I have the premium model. … The new MDX for 2014 lost the magnetic shocks that I used to love and was absolutely horrible I drove it for 2 months and traded it for a loss to get into the GX. The 2014 MDX had very bad body lean in corners the famous user interface has been butchered by Acura and was awful. GX interface is perfect.
2nd GX...
4.5 out of 5 starsbobbio56, 08/27/2011
2011 Lexus GX 460 4dr SUV 4WD (4.6L 8cyl 6A)
Traded loaded '04 with 119k miles for '11.
The '11 is much more refined, smoother and more tech'ed savvy.
Mileage for first 1400 miles has been at least a 25% improvement.
3rd row seats are easy to use.
Very quiet and stable at all speeds.
Cooled front seats are great.
Kinetic suspension performs really well, had that on my '04 as an option.
blue tooth phone quality is excellent, voice … commands for all functions is sub par.
Paint quality is a vast improvement over '04!
Looked at every suv & crossover out there and came back to Lexus/GX.
