00:00The all-new 2024 GX showcases an all-new exterior design, leading with a dynamic front fascia
00:06that continues the signature Lexus spindle body concept. The eagerly awaited redesign
00:11of the Lexus GX has arrived for the 2024 model year, and it brings with it a host of compelling
00:17reasons to consider purchasing this mid-size family off-road SUV. Here are my top 8 reasons
00:24why the all-new 2024 GX is worth buying.
00:281. Lexus has made small progress with its real-world fuel economy
00:34We all know that this Lexus model has never been famous or designed to be an ultra-fuel economy
00:40SUV, but with the transition from a V8 to a twin-turbo V6 engine, the fuel economy of the
00:462024 GX is expected to see significant improvements compared to the previous model.
00:51The 2023 model had EPA estimates of 15 miles per gallon and 19 miles per gallon highway,
00:57while the new 2024 will be averaging about 19-20 miles per gallon.
01:02Some improvement is better than no improvement at all, do you agree?
01:062. Very smart and dynamic pricing strategy by Lexus
01:12The 2024 GX offers a range of trims to suit different preferences and needs.
01:18Here's a breakdown of the estimated pricing for each model.
01:21Being a base model, premium starts at around $60,000.
01:25The premium trim offers a great balance of features and value.
01:29One step upgrade is a premium plus. For an upgrade, the premium plus trim is estimated
01:35to be priced around $65,000, offering additional amenities and enhancements.
01:41Then, the next luxury trim level offers some more if you desire a more luxurious experience.
01:46The luxury trim is estimated to start at around $70,000,
01:50providing a higher level of sophistication and comfort.
01:54For the pinnacle of luxury and refinement, the luxury plus trim is estimated to have
01:58a starting price of approximately $75,000, offering the finest features and craftsmanship.
02:04For those seeking exceptional off-road capabilities, the over-trail trim is
02:08estimated to start at around $75,000 as well, delivering rugged performance and enhanced
02:14off-road features. And last but not least, at the top of the lineup, the over-trail plus trim
02:19is estimated to be priced close to $80,000, providing the ultimate in off-road capability
02:25and luxury. With options spanning from $60,000 to around $80,000, you can choose the trim that
02:32best aligns with your desired features, performance, and budget. This is where you can see
02:37how Lexus made sure to differentiate trim levels on their main characteristics and avoid future
02:42GX owners overpaying for things that they may never use, if they opt for the top-of-the-line
02:47models. I always think that one must consider priorities and preferences to select the GX
02:52model that suits their needs, ensuring an enjoyable and tailored long-time ownership experience.
