Lexus for reliability in my book. Landrover you’ll pay out the ying yang when things break

[@ThomasR-v6w]

The Lexus GX550 overtrail defeated the Land Rover Defender 130 and Mercedes G Wagon in a off-road competition.

[@lionsborn]

[@oni-one574]

Wow, the GX really makes the defender look stubby!

[@unitednoobies898]

lol nice

[@petergazarek9466]

LEXUS 👌❤️👍 THE PERFECTION

[@prosperpersonelle]

Lexus always and forever ❤❤❤

[@gp1683]

If only you could compare resale value. One would look like a mountain and the other a molehill.

My assessment is based on what I observed at the Auto Show in California. For comparing this SUV, I recommend examining others. To attend, both my wife and I had to pay a $30 fee, and I was particularly eager to personally see the Lexus GX due to the hype surrounding it as a large off-road SUV. Before I outline the positives and negatives, I want to express my anticipation spanning decades for the GX to unveil a new design. However, I am disappointed with what I encountered. Pros: * The shape is commendable, featuring a perfect boxy design akin to competitors such as the Defender, Jeep Cherokee, and GMC. * While the central infotainment system is not groundbreaking, it maintains consistency with other Lexus models, which is acceptable. * Cons: * There are numerous drawbacks. The model I viewed exceeded $77k and lacked the ML sound system. * The absence of a panoramic sunroof, now a standard feature in modern vehicles, detracts from the luxurious experience. * The panoramic sunroof in the Luxury+ model is underwhelming and seems to mimic the idea from the Venza, which has been on the market for over six years. * The quality of leather and interior falls short compared to other SUVs in the same price range. Even the Toyota Highlander boasts superior interior quality. * The exterior feels excessively plastic, particularly upon contact with the bumper, hood, and other body panels. * Leather quality across all trims is subpar. * Fuel economy poses a significant issue in 2024, averaging only 17 mpg. * Many materials exude a cheap feel, failing to deliver a luxurious experience. * If one opts for all available options on the Lexus GX 550, it may be preferable to choose the LX 600, which offers a higher level of luxury and power. * For a better depiction of luxury, consider examining the Infiniti QX80: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hH7ddWqkgbafers I've been a longtime enthusiast of this SUV, but now, even surpassing $80k plus tax, it's hardly worth the investment. In 2024, there's a myriad of alternative options I've contemplated, including the Ford F150 Electric, Rivian, Cybertruck, GMC Denali AT4, Sequoia, and the Volkswagen Atlas Off-Road version, among others, boasting advanced technology and commendable qualities. Toyota and Lexus seem to be marketing very basic vehicles under the guise of reliability. Many individuals I conversed with at the auto show shared my sentiment that the GX 550 pales in comparison to the 460 in terms of quality, feeling cheaply constructed. It appears that KZbin influencers may be sponsored by Toyota and Lexus, with many Toyota dealers hyping these vehicles on social media to attract buyers. This SUV no longer epitomizes luxury, not by a long shot. If you disregard reliability and juxtapose it against brands like BMW, Audi, and Land Rover, it's disheartening to witness its decline. Purchasing this vehicle entails enduring it for another six years solely to mitigate depreciation, while numerous other automakers are already introducing superior and more advanced technology. At present, I must explore alternative options, as this SUV is not worth $85k out of the door, if you're fortunate enough. Best wishes with your new purchase. Just bear in mind, many individuals are compensated for endorsing Toyota and Lexus brands, and I've encountered numerous instances of Toyota dealers leveraging social media to generate interest in these vehicles. In conclusion, this is merely my perspective. Enjoy your new purchase

Defender Still give you an option for V8

[@Unknownuser0515]

Defender 130 was on my list and still is..but we might go with GX for reliability and resale value

[@killerkett]

definitely

[@Dgiaco1991]

I'd be happy with either one. The Defender has been on my list for a while. Really wish the GX Overland version had a 3rd row. I like the tougher looks of the Overland, but occasionally need that 3rd row.

[@Solacer8]

You can add third row to overtial model as aftermarket

[@shaanzaidi6587]

My sentiments exactly

[@liorweisspi]

I can't wait for a deep review about cabin noise and ride quality on the road where I will use it most of the time. the defender still look sharper inside and out. Japanese design for some reason is not refined, I would take the reliability though.

[@allisonle8596]

Totally agree. My husband wants the Land Rover but the reliability issues is such a downer. We can’t seem to get our dream car!

[@acousticriff7579]

your husbands a loser

[@ricardoortega1382]

I personally like the looks of the Defender a bit more.

[@aymansalameh3701]

Thankfully, a brand like Toyota, who makes real cars for the real world, exists. It's scary some car manufacturers think that all the cars we'll be driving are going to be electric

[@maureencora1]

2024 I Take a Land Rover Defender 110 V8.

[@QuinteroJ68]

Lexus gx 😍

[@gabrielalcantara181]

GX all day 🎉

[@PervizEhmedov-tu4hk]

GX550 always❤

[@alexisfigueroa2629]

Defender has a more futuristic vibe similar to when the FJ came out and that appeals to me but is that much better look or better quality/performance than the GX? Probably not and will the GX be cheaper? I'm would probably go with the Lexus if I could afford it and if money was no object I'd go with the Defender or even a G wagon

[@glendavid3648]

I would never own a Range rover no matter how nice it looks.. lexus for me on this

[@Chitownprince83]

You can’t even compare. Lexus hands down

[@EightSixx]

which one is better?

[@josephjewellers]

Toyota nailed it …….. GX looks so much better…….

[@leahj9564]

Best compare ❤

[@lordshin73]

Lexus for the win

[@cosy1914]

Defender far and away the most timeless and classic design. It looks way better to me. You can tell the lexus is designed for Asian market. No competition in terms of looks.

[@CamberRockerCamber]

Give me the GX but I'd rather take the Landcruiser over the GX because it looks better.

[@gavinwang7993]

Love defender more 😊

[@y0su0002]

Until you hit the trail…

[@baltimorejae7397]

​@y0su0002 Lexus can't beat LR off road. And I have a GX 460

[@careudtpms]

Lexus, embedded mounted receiver, TPMS for Car, CAREUD.

[@nb44444]

Lexus is so much nicer. The defender looks like an inflated shoe next to it

[@shaanzaidi6587]

I like the look of the Defender but you can beat the Lexus so we bought one

[@paulgrinold1103]

One is built like a car and the other is built like a truck.

[@ismailbesiktasli]

Defender looking stronger.

[@user-mz7fc3en3p]

Лексус ❤

[@pinoykarpintero1058]

of corz GX PRADO all the way . LEASE or RENT dEFENDER GX LEXUS for KEEP

[@SukdeepGill]

Lexus looks less wide

[@rycophotography]

It does look that way however I just looked on their websites and the GX is actually 4” wider (both measured with mirrors folded in)

[@SukdeepGill]

Might b due to camera angle

[@asimpleguy9667]

lexus/ land cruiser 👄👄👄

[@Coldsedit]

Defender looks really dumb I swear

[@DidierKobza]

the american's and the taste of cars😂

[@findknightthesecond4317]

Never impressed a lexus very ugly front grille not my type very normal looks just toyota level Defender or any Landrover Range Rover is a dream it is a dream

[@mayhemcry]

Can you add Ford Bronco into this match up? Lol

[@Solacer8]

Bronco is comparable to Land Cruiser, GX to defender.

[@danielrogers4072]

seriously?

[@esteban75lover23]

GX is such a blatant knockoff.

[@dbarrera13]

How? Have you ever seen Lexus and Land Cruisers of the past?

[@flight2k5]

Knockoff of what?😂😂

[@imhaydenmelrose]

What a blatantly ignorant comment.

[@rene9385]

Land Rover Defender is garbage, there is no comparison

[@FreePalestine718]

Defender all the way
