2018 Lexus GX 460 High

The GX 460 is Lexus's body-on-frame SUV, the one that still feels like a traditional truck-based off-roader rather than a car-based crossover. It rides smoothly on the highway and handles gravel and dirt roads with confidence, though the steering is a bit vague on pavement. The cabin is quiet and well-built, with comfortable seats for five and a usable third row that folds flat when you need more cargo room. Lexus's reputation for dependability carries over here, and owners typically report few problems beyond routine maintenance. The High trim adds leather upholstery, ventilated front seats, and a heated steering wheel over the Premium, making it the one to get if you want the full luxury treatment in your off-road-capable SUV. The High trim comes standard with a Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System, which disconnects the stabilizer bars at low speeds for better wheel articulation off-road.
