Head turner but luxury + needs more
One of the best looking suvs on the market hands down. The body on frame makes it a rougher ride than the defender and the variable suspension doesn't do a ton to help it. A few new model quirks that will absolutely get ironed out in the future. Massage seats are best in class (accessing them on the dash is a pain though). I don't know if the luxury + is worth the price but more options should be available (two-tone roof, more luxurious materials internally) at that price point. I would recommend the other options as their price points and options are better bang for the buck and you still have the best looking SUV.

Overtrail 550
Enjoyed the view of the road. The side sensors caused causing blind spots to either speed up or slow down. Excellent Acceleration. Mrs. Likes the 550 more than the GX 460.

Overtrail + Road Trip
Just took a 2,700 mile road trip in our new 2025 GX550 Overtrail+. This is our third Lexus vehicle along with a couple of Toyota 4Runners. The vehicle ran well and has plenty of power. Other than that we had many disappointments with this SUV. The car wants to tell you how to drive. Constant alerts that are annoying to say the least. Kept getting an alert that my eyes were closed along with not sitting up straight. If another vehicle passed too close you get an alarm, pull into a parking space and you get alarms, pull into a drive through window and get alarms. Lexus has forgotten the KISS rule (keep it simple stupid). I'm tall, with the front seat all the way back there is not any room for an adult to sit behind me. The back compartment storage area is not a level surface and the rear seats are tilted back which restricts the ability to stack equipment in an upright position. There is very limited storage up front with the door pockets, glove box and the center console. The cooler box is a complete waste of space as it will hold a very minimum amount of contents. The side view mirrrors are too small in my opinion. After reading the various reviews and waiting six months to receive this vehicle, I must say that it does not continue the Lexus/Toyota experience that we have had with our past SUV's. Hoping that we will be capable of having the various alarms and safety features on this vehicle turned off. We did not purchase a car to be told how to drive.

Looks amazing and is even more fun to drive.
Though I originally didn’t plan on getting the Overtrail model, when one came available in black, once I saw it I was hooked. However, once I got in and drove it I was like a kid with a new bicycle. Inside the dash is laid out nicely with most features being adjusted through the huge driver interface screen. For a vehicle sporting 33 inch tires this this drives great on the highway. And for those of you, like me, who like some performance from their engine try setting the drive mode to either Sport or Sport+ and hang on. It’s no performance car but with the twin turbos kicking in along with the drive mode modifications to not only throttle and shift response but in Sport+ you also get a change to exhaust tone, no idea how they do that. This is just one seriously fun vehicle to drive.

Souped up Toyota
Test drove the Overtrain and it felt just a little better than a family members new Tacoma TRD Off-Road. Very little about it feels like a Lexus. If you really are going over trails I guess it's a good bet but not fun to drive otherwise. Cool looking but I suspect people on the wait list will get tired of it pretty quick.
