Great SUV
Some say it’s dated. For me it’s perfect. V8 power, tried and true, full time 4wd, 6500 pound towing capacity, body on frame. It’s been a pleasure to own, no problems, zero. Build quality, paint, interior, all great. This is a quality vehicle that will give you many years of service. Update 10/22. The GX has been perfect with zero issues. Still drives new and no rattles. Interior still looks new. Still feeling good about this purchase! Update 4/20/23 Just passed 70,000 miles. Had the front brakes done along with the scheduled maintenance. No issues at all to report. The GX still runs and drives as new, with not a squeak or rattle. The paint and interior are still great and I get compliments on it. The phone companies recently phased out 3G and it affected some of my telematics, which is disappointing, because Lexus is not offering any repair/updates to upgrade the truck to 4G. These are great vehicles and if your looking at a used one buy a 2019 or newer, which have 4G. Update 10/20/23: no issues to report. I just got back from an extended trip to several states. She was loaded down but performed well in the mountains. For a 2016 with 81,000 miles to still be as tight and rattle free is impressive. I will look at the all new 2024, but it may be out of my price range. These are great vehicles. Update: 4/24. The GX is still running perfect. No issues to report. Paint and interior still holding up very well. I use F11 Pro on the paint and get compliments on the truck all the time. No squeaks or rattles. I’m not sure you can buy a better built or more reliable vehicle. Update: 10/24 still going strong at 92,000 miles. Zero problems of any kind. Still runs and drives like new. Having a hard time deciding to keep it or trade it. When you hit 100,00 miles, you take a pretty good hit on resale. If I keep it much longer, I may just drive it until it acts up. That could be a while, I have a friend that has one with 328,000 miles. He drives it every day. Update: 4/25 Just had 4 new tires put on my GX. The SUV now has 97,000 miles on it and is running perfectly. Zero issues, as usual. I take it to the Lexus dealer for all routine maintenance, and keep all of that up to date. I usually trade vehicles before 100,000 miles, but after driving several SUV’s and thinking it over, I’m keeping this one for now. I’m still concerned about the V6 issues Toyota/Lexus is having with new engine that replaced the V8’s in new trucks and SUV’s, including the GX550. I just couldn’t find anything I was willing to trade for, because I really like what I have. In 2 weeks I will be heading north for an extended trip in it, and have absolutely no concerns. At this stage of my life, reliability means a lot to me and I have it with this vehicle.

It has flaws, but everything else is awesome
MPG is not great, tech is okay with Apple Car Play, but that’s not really the point of this vehicle….. this is a very rugged and luxurious SUV. It really is the Japanese G Wagon. The styling stays pretty much the same year after year and it’s near timeless. Safety is incredible and off road capabilities are as good as any 4x4 Jeep or truck if not better. Very hard to beat the value.

Rugged SUV
I watched and read many reviews on this vehicle and eventually purchased one with the Premium trim. First off, it's a body-on-frame vehicle and it drives like that - I like it, some may not. On the stock tires, the ride is pretty smooth. Even over rough roads and bumps - did I mention it's a body-on-frame SUV...The V8 is responsive - not incredibly quick but strong enough. I get 17.5 mpg on mixed driving. Every review mentions that it has an ancient engine and transmission. Other than the gas mileage, it performs well and it's bulletproof. If you're looking for a proven vehicle that can handle the rough stuff and comfortably tackle the daily drive, this is a great choice.

love my 2021 gx 460 premium w/ sport package
Don't listen to negative reviews, i was shopping around Range rovers, Mercedes suv and this Lexus Gx since i drove a GS 350 which was bulletproof reliable. The range rovers have awful reliability complaints, mercedes are nice but don't hold their value well so i went to Lexus and test drove this 2021 Gx with sport pack and fell in love. The infotainment system is plain but works and im getting 14.5-16.5 mpg in city and 19-20 mpg in hwy which is not bad for a v8. Love the triple beam headlights ! it makes it look almost like a new bodystyle Gx even though its a refresh. This car with the sport package, 19 inch black wheels and white paint exterior turns heads. I was looking at 2020 pre owned and they are almost same price as the deal i got on new one, these hold value very well so you won't have to be thousands upside down when its time to trade like a range rover junk or mercedes and on top of that its bulletproof reliable ! Today is 3/1/22 and i still feel the same about my GX , great vehicle and such a mean looking presence with the sport package when i drive or see another on the road :)

Best Value
I've read the reviews over the years for this vehicle and it turns out the most of what "car reviewer" say is correct. But here's the rub, when compared to Mercedes it cost far less to operate in terms of maintenance cost and resale value. This means your money stays where you put it. And compared to Range Rover reliability is where the GX460 takes the easy win. If you like the the Range Rover dealership experience you'll get plenty of it just trying to keep it slapped together. If you need to impress your friends and neighbors in the short term, by all means you should buy something other than a GX460. If you need a vehicle of this type and size but you want to be able to transport you and those important to you anywhere at any time and not worry about whats going to break next the GX is the better choice. I'd like to see the ride quality improve along with the gas mileage on the GX460, but not at the expense of reliability. If you ever asked why the average age of an airplane is 25 years old and why some airlines are using aircraft that have been out of production for over 15 years, take a closer look at the GX460's build quality and compare.

Solid and reliable! Old school quality!
First Lexus in our household and chose this one over the RX-350. GX460 has more headroom and is a heavier vehicle overall. Ours has the Premium Plus package and Sport Appearance Group (black onyx/ecru) and looks great. The Mark Levinson sound system is outstanding and this vehicle will go just about anywhere in style. No, it doesn’t have all the latest tech features but we’re perfectly happy with the layout and ease of use of its controls and its suite of safety features is very good. Gas mileage is not great but safety and reliability should be outstanding as well as resale value. It’s definitely not a one size fits all SUV but for our purposes we think it’s a great choice.

2021 GX White w Sepia interior
Nice looking, rugged SUV drives smoothly on the highway. Potholes are a non-issue and is quiet inside. I've had the car for 10 months and 10k miles and has been terrific. Considered Audi Q7, Range Rover, and MB GLE. Chose GX for reliability and (eventual) resale value. Confident I won't regret the decision. Safety tech is quite good. Infotech, as noted, isn't state of the art, but that wasn't important to me. I really hate non-maintenance visits to dealership which I expect will be minimal with the GX. Vehicle is roomy inside but narrow compared to other SUV's. Makes it easier to park but, if you're considering the GX, you should be aware it's a few inches more narrow than alternatives. I didn't opt for the Levinson-Lux package and am happy with the stereo as is. Car looks pretty cool with the dark wheels and am happy with white -- great combo.

Tank in a Tuxedo
The 2022 GX is rock solid. It has everything I need and nothing I don’t. No bling just bulletproof reliability. Give me the Japanese quality over the German-built eye candy all day every day. My third Lexus and will not be my last. I have owned my GX for 9 months, and I like it more now that when I brought it home.

Love my GX 360
This is a great SUV for families. Plenty of room and easy to drive. If you’re looking for good gas mileage, this isn’t the vehicle for you. I was more interested in reliability and comfort. The gas mileage is why I have it 4 stars. Overall it’s a great SUV that I will own for many years to come.

GX cellent
It’s not ahead of other vehicles of its type and class but it is very good. I appreciate its old school essence. I’m very pleased with my 2022 GX. The GX has been going strong for over 10 years; that is why I made the purchase.

I will never drive anything but a Lexus GX 460.
I just bought my 4th Lexus GX 460. They all have gone over 125,000 miles without any major isssues. The handle well and are unbelievably dependable. I had owned several other luxury automobiles and this vehicle cost me less to maintain than any. That includes Cadillac, Mercedes and Jaguar. Nothing comes close to these vehicles. And my dealership, Sterling McCall, ism by fat the best I have ever dealt with in my life. Wouldn’t buy anything but a Lexus. And never have it serviced by anybody but Sterling McCall. Sterling McCall and Lexus are the very best.

Bulletproof
2021 GX460 is the best luxury SUV for on/off road if you don't care about technology upgrades (apple play, etc..), although I believe the 2022 has Apple play so maybe that is no longer an issue. There is a reason they have not changed this car in 10 years, it works perfectly fine and does not ever break down. The interior is nice and very quiet when driving on any road. Great headroom for taller drivers and visibility is also very good. Center locking differential and high low/transfer case with 6,500/lb towing capacity is phenominal. LED headlights on 2021 model are super bright and efficient. The dynamic radar cruise control is so nice for long highway drives, I will never buy a car that does not have this option ever again. Gas mileage is 18mpg average with city/hwy, but small block V8 and very heavy truck = poor gas mileage. Overall this is a car that will not disappoint- unless you like sitting on the side of the road and waiting for a tow truck to come pick you up.

Gx460 is a keeper!!!
So in love with our GX460. So far it is perfect in every way. Yes, maybe not gas mileage, but that’s to be expected with 4wd.

Lexus continue to nickle and dime GX customers!
Someone at Lexus decided to remove the passenger side mirror auto-dimming feature from the 2021 GX 460 after having it available on a GX since 2010! My Father's 2006 ES 330 and my wife's 2015 RX 350 both have dual auto-dimming mirrors, but my $70k brand sparkling new GX doesn't because Lexus decided to do yet another cheap skate trick to their most loyal customers! None of the Lexus vehicle have the cult following like the GX do and yet Lexus continues to rob us of one feature after another. My 2008 GX 470 had air suspension and rear height adjustment standard across all trim lines along with the wood and leather streeing wheel...and a single $3k package automatically included Navigation, Backup camera and Mark Levinson stereo. Now in order to get all of the above-mentioned features, once must opt for the top of the line Luxury model costing nearly $15k more than the base trim and even then they must still pay extra for Mark Levinson stereo! And it's still not enough for the Lexus bottom line! Now they saved another ($100?) with the anti-glare removal from the passenger side mirror...something that is available on EVERY other Lexus vehicle, some selling for over $20k less than the GX 460! SHAME on you Lexus! You have lost a very loyal customer by your decision to save a dime! No more Lexus for me going forward!

Smoother ride but interior design does not impress
Even though I was told new 2022 GX 460 has the same engine and transmission as previous years I feel the ride is smoother now. The engine and or fan do not sound as rough as my 2019 GX460. As far as the interior redesign, the new 10.3" navigation screen is actually smaller in height which makes a difference in seeing the route. I have to zoom out more which makes the map smaller than the previous screen built into the console. It is also more exposed to the sunlight. There is an optional anti-glare screen Lexus has when you perform a custom build, but dealers do not have it in stock yet. On a plus side, Lexus finally exposed physical fan more/less buttons but still hides AC. Now I have to do even more clicks to turn it on/off. Overall, the new screen introduced more clicks than the previous. I hate it. The touch pad is disruptive to driving and I do not know anyone who likes it. I have not tried the Apple or Android app that can pair with the SUV to allow mirror features of an Apple/Android device, such as a smartphone, on a car's dashboard information and entertainment head unit. This will be nice to mirror google maps as I find traffic info is much better on my Android phone.

Love my GX 460
I love my 2021 GX. It met my expectations and more. It doesn't have all the bells and whistle that I look for a in a luxury vehicle, but I still found it very well equipped. The sports design package really sets the car off with the larger rims and black accents. It is the best comparable SUV in terms of reliability and performance. No regrets.

Meh!
I just got the 2021 Lexus GX luxury with the sport package, black with red interior. Previously I had a 2017 Tahoe. I like the look of the Lexus, the grille is not the greatest feature but I don’t have an issue with that. My issue is the technology. Compared to a 2017 Tahoe I feel like I stepped back in time. My first complaint is the lack of Apple CarPlay, the dealership said they could add that aftermarket for $1,600. The navigation sucks, even when I use the live person. The Alexa won’t send the directions to the screen. The “home” screen is never the Home Screen, the car always starts on the navigation screen. The gas mileage is awful plus it takes premium fuel. You would think for a luxury line vehicle it would have state of the art technology. I wanted this car for so long and spent over $70k and I’m so disappointed.

Issues with vehicle since the 300 miles
What a MISTAKE, 2021 GX 460 car started pulling to the right after 300 miles have to consistently bring car in line because of the pulled. Took it in Lexus West Kendall Miami Florida and nothing was fixed. Took videos with the tech they acknowledge the issue. however need to clarify issue doesn’t happen under 35 mph only after I star driving at higher speeds or I press on the gas. Driven BMW, Chevy, Range Rover and even the 4Runner never had issues with suv pulling so much. Story short it’s been seven times already issues still there last thing they said that the balancing is within specs. Really disappointed concern with the safety of the Vehicle. Will take it to a different dealership as recommended by Lexus HQ.
flawless potential
exceeds expectations for performance, comfort, and handling. very impressed haven't had it that long.
Uncomfortable
Bought a ‘22 Premium plus new and within 2 weeks never before back pain started. The seats are low flat and the frame for the “ventilation” fan jams in the back with very little padding. The seats are also bucket style which hurts your hips. I absolutely love the vehicle but had to trade it due to the crippling back pain. If it fits you then it’s the best, but these seats are known for poor comfort.
Nice
Very nice car but has a very dated interior.Needs to be updated.Car is fun to drive an very very comfortable.Car is definitely a head turner.

Tired and dated
As a devoted Lexus customer since 1993, I looked forward a couple of years ago to trading my GX470 in on a new GX460. For the first time I was extremely disappointed. The 460 is underpowered, and the transmission inadequate. The seats are uncomfortable, and the ride and handling have not been improved since the 460 replaced the 470. The electronic controls are confusing and not well designed. The whole vehicle seems sadly dated and neglected. I replaced the 460 with a Ram 1500, which is better in all respects: seat comfort, ride, handling, gas mileage, power, transmission, electronics, and features. The value for the money was so much better. It really seems that Toyota stopped spending to continuously improve the model, and it shows. The worst feature of my 460 was the standard audio system. It was capable of reproducing sound effectively when attached to an external source. The internal am and fm, and satellite were strangely muffled on both talk and music. No amount of tweaking helped. The dealer claimed the system met factory specs. I was very happy to get a different vehicle with listenable satellite, am and fm.
Favorite car ever!
Amazing SUV, super smooth and fun to drive! It has everything you could possibly imagine in a vehicle!

Built like a tank and built to last!
Overall, I love my 2022 GX 460! Others have complained that it does not include the latest tech, is not fuel efficient, or fast like some competitors. This vehicle wasn't built for those things - it's built to provide solid reliability, comfort, a luxurious, cosseting ride, utility when needed, towing (if needed) and the peace of mind knowing that you can go to the furthest reaches of the world and get you back home in one piece! If you are looking for something that is supposedly modern looking, fuel efficient, modern looking with all the latest tech - look elsewhere. But if you're looking for a vehicle that will cradle you in comfort 20+ years from now, provide ample luxury features, and the utility to tow your toys without breaking down when you decide to venture off road, this is the one to buy! They have refined this model to the point that all issues from past models are non-existent, so it is quite reliable! 2 years of ownership and over 30k miles and it's been bullet proof in rain, snow, or anything else mother nature can throw your way! I also average 23-24 miles per gallon on the highway cruising at 75 with the AC on. I installed a chip that adds ~ 40-60 hp and 2-4 more mpg. Very happy with my purchase!

Absolutely not…
built for 6 passengers! WHY do auto manufacturers bill vehicles as “6 passenger” when there is absolutely no comfort level to the 3rd row seating. It is inaccessible to anyone larger than a toddler yet a toddler would need to be in a child car seat which there is no conceivable way to get a carseat into the 3rd row!! And there is zero cargo space with 3rd row seats up. Practically zero room for even a purse in the 2nd or 3rd row. Ridiculous! Thankfully my husband is comfortable riding in it by himself! And thankfully I have my comfortable Honda odyssey minivan!

Don’t drive at night !
The head lights designed is so low you can’t see Driving at night. It draws a line at the same level of the hood. I took it to the dealership to see if they could adjust them. Was told no. That they need to be at that level to not shine in on coming traffic. But I can’t see !! Not able read road signs. The bright lights are fine.

Never buy
This is a terrible car to buy if you intend to drive more than two people. Literally only the driver and who ever is riding shot gun are comfortable. I’d be surprised if anyone over the age of 2 years old would be comfortable in the third row of seats, and no one over the age of 2 can easily move into the third row. The second row of seats is only tolerable, but don’t even try to have a drink that’s not in a sealed bottle. This has to be one of the most ill conceived SUVs ever designed.
👍👍👍
Have driven Lexus for decades…..best car on road!!
