The all-new Lexus GX550 has quickly become one of the most talked-about SUVs in America. Built on the same TNGA-F platform that underpins the new Land Cruiser and Tundra, the GX550 blends premium luxury, rugged off-road engineering, and modern technology in a way that no SUV in its class has done before. At Lifted Trucks, we’re already seeing strong demand for the GX550, especially among drivers who want a premium SUV that performs just as well on the trails as it does in the city.
If you’re thinking about buying one, this breakdown will help you understand the differences between all the GX550 trim levels so you can choose the model that fits your lifestyle and your next adventure.
Lexus GX550 Trim Levels
Below are the current trims offered for the GX550 in the U.S. market. Each trim builds on the same powerful foundation: a 3.4L twin-turbo V6, full-time 4WD, 10-speed automatic transmission, body-on-frame construction, and serious off-road engineering.
GX550 Premium
The Premium is the entry point into the GX550 lineup, but nothing about it feels “basic.” It offers seating for seven, leather-trimmed upholstery, a 14-inch touchscreen, adaptive cruise control, multiple drive modes, and a powerful twin-turbo V6. This trim is perfect for families who want the comfort and luxury of a Lexus with the capability of a true adventure-ready SUV. It’s the ideal foundation for mild lifts, touring setups, and long-distance road trips.
GX550 Premium+
The Premium+ adds more comfort and convenience features, including ventilated front seats, upgraded driver-assist technology, a power liftgate, and more advanced interior materials. The Premium+ is an excellent choice for drivers who want added refinement and modern amenities without stepping into the higher luxury or off-road trims.
GX550 Luxury
The Luxury trim takes interior refinement to the next level. Expect upgraded leather, premium wood accents, high-end audio options, power-folding third row, more advanced technology, and enhanced exterior styling. This trim is built for drivers who want a sophisticated cabin and maximum comfort while still maintaining impressive off-road capability. It’s ideal for those who want the finest Lexus experience in an SUV that can explore the mountains on the weekend.
GX550 Luxury+
As the highest luxury specification in the lineup, the Luxury+ elevates the GX550 into a premium flagship. It features semi-aniline leather, 22-inch wheels, massaging front seats, advanced suspension, and top-tier driver assistance features. For buyers who want the most comfortable and technologically advanced version of the GX550, the Luxury+ is the choice. It competes directly with high-end European brands like Mercedes and BMW while offering far more reliability and real off-road engineering.
GX550 Overtrail
The Overtrail is Lexus’ answer to the growing overland and off-road market. Designed to be trail-ready out of the box, the Overtrail includes 33-inch all-terrain tires, a wider track, electronic locking rear differential, skid plates, off-road drive modes, and unique exterior styling. The interior features durable materials designed for outdoor adventure. This trim is perfect for drivers who want to explore, camp, and tackle technical terrain without compromising the smoothness and luxury of a Lexus.
GX550 Overtrail+
The Overtrail+ takes everything from the Overtrail and adds a premium interior, upgraded comfort features, enhanced leather, improved seat technology, and additional off-road enhancements. With its combination of capability and luxury, the Overtrail+ targets adventure seekers who want the best of both worlds. It is one of the most desirable configurations in the lineup and a standout choice for building the ultimate overland SUV.
Which GX550 Trim Should You Choose?
Every trim level of the GX550 offers something unique, but the best choice depends on your lifestyle.
For families: GX550 Premium or Premium+
For comfort: GX550 Luxury
For maximum refinement: GX550 Luxury+
For off-road adventure: GX550 Overtrail
For the ultimate overlander: GX550 Overtrail+
No matter which trim you choose, the GX550 is one of the most balanced SUVs on the market—powerful, luxurious, and extremely capable on challenging terrain. When paired with lift kits, all-terrain tires, rock protection, lighting upgrades, and rooftop accessories, it transforms into a world-class expedition vehicle.
