Overview

The 2014 Lexus GX 460 is a proud member of the midsize SUV segment, locking horns with cars like the Audi Q7, the Land Rover LR4, and the Acura MDX. Spread across 2 trims, the GX 460 starts off at a base price of MSRP of $49,085 and carries on to $60,715. Its 4.6L V8 and a 6-speed automatic transmission give the SUV 301 horsepower and 329 lb-ft of torque. With that, it manages a 0-60 of 7.2 seconds and boasts a towing capacity of 6,500 pounds. Moving to fuel economy, the GX 460 manages to get a combined EPA rating of 17 MPG, a poor number for the class, giving its rivals an edge. It also has a ground clearance of 8.1 inches.

Buying Advice

Our go-to trim is the base GX 460. We would also like to get the Premium Package and optional navigation system with it. However, for an adaptive suspension with rear auto-leveling, better cabin appointments, and more standard safety features, the Luxury trim is the destination that also offers the optional Driver Support Package.

              GX460: SUV, yes please.

              Pros - ["Plenty of space.", "Very Reliable."]

              Cons - ["Color (my mom picked color)", "Needs the more expensive fuel."]

              I am leasing a maroonish (I can't remember the actual color name, sorry) Lexus GX460 SUV. It's got over 100,000 miles on it, but it still runs smoothly and hasn't needed a service since it was bought towards the end of 2023.
