2015 Lexus GX 460 SUV Review - Edmunds.com

A traditional midsize SUV with three rows of seating, the 2015 Lexus GX 460 is capable off-road, yet manages to coddle its occupants on pavement. Still, most crossover SUVs offer better on-road performance and passenger comfort. What's New for 2015. For 2015, the Lexus GX 460 expands its standard features list to include Siri Eyes Free, an amenity that allows iPhone users (4S and newer) voice-controlled access to various functions. Also, the available Lexus Enform App Suite has been upgraded to additional smartphone app integration. Introduction While Lexus sells plenty of its RX 350 and new NX crossover SUVs, it still keeps a couple of traditional SUVs available as well. The 2015 Lexus GX 460 is one of them, and it carries the old-school SUV torch with sturdy body-on-frame construction, full-time four-wheel drive and a beefy V8 engine under the hood. But whether the GX is right for you will depend a lot on your priorities. Interestingly, this Lexus is still a pretty well-mannered companion in the city. The GX 460 also offers an available adaptive air suspension (to further soften the ride) plus a solid amount of luxury-oriented features. But unless you're planning on spending a lot of time in the dirt, the fact remains that there are better choices out there for an SUV. Source: www.edmunds.com
