Design and Features

As mentioned above, please watch the video linked below for a full in-depth exploration of the exterior design and differences. The GX 550 has a very distinct design from the other Lexus SUV’s, such as the 2024 Lexus TX, 2023 Lexus RX and 2024 Lexus LX 600. On the inside things look more traditional, except that the squared-off design elements from the outside continue into the cabin as well.
