GX460 "Lexus" - a characteristic of a brand new off-roader

GX460 "Lexus" can be safely called the contender for the place of the leader in terms of passing the city streets and the most real impassability. This car was created on the basis of such a famous model as the Toyota Land Cruiser. But, in principle, observing the long established tradition of competition, "Lexus" has risen to a level higher than the machine with which it is constantly compared.

About the exterior

So, what can you say first about the GX460 Lexus? Firstly, the fact that this machine, which is finally different in its original design. The developers decided to abandon all elements that had already become traditional in terms of style. Indeed, the previous models were similar to each other - and so four years in a row. And finally the GX460 "Lexus" came out! The updated front and rear parts, modified lanterns, completely different body lines, aerodynamic appearance - now it certainly will not be comparable with the "Toyota".

Interior, interior and ergonomics

Of the innovations that touched the salon, you can note, perhaps, only cosmetic. You can see a new modern multimedia system, which is a very nice addition. It meets all the requirements and standards of 2014 (when this car was released). There is a wide 8-inch color display and additional USB-connectors.

By the way, the fact that the salon developers decided to leave virtually unchanged - not a minus, but even a plus. It was possible to preserve all the best qualities of the model. And they include excellent noise insulation, comfort and spaciousness. The three main qualities that a potential buyer takes into account when choosing a car. All this is really at the highest level. Even when the machine meets with pits, potholes and potholes, all the noise is absorbed. In general, the car is comfortable. This is also facilitated by comfortable seats in which all the passengers and, of course, the driver feel great.

About technical characteristics

Perhaps, this is the main part, which concerns the model "Lexus" GX460. The new car pleases potential buyers with its power. This model is equipped with an excellent petrol 4.6-liter engine, which produces 296 "horses." This power unit operates under the control of a 6-speed automatic transmission. GX460 "Lexus" is able to accelerate to a hundred kilometers a little more than eight seconds. With all this, its weight is 2.5 tons!

This car has almost no buildup of the body, due to which significantly improves controllability. There are no rolls, more precisely, they are, but due to the stabilizers they are instantly muffled. But there are minuses here, too. These include some lack of informativeness for the helm. But, however, the GX460 "Lexus" behaves like on the road, and on the road is very predictable.

By the way, it is worth remembering about one nuance. "Lexus" GX460, reviews about which are mostly positive, - SUV, do not forget about it. He has enough traction to cope with steep climbs, and high-quality fog lights provide excellent visibility in both rain and fog conditions. The only difficulty with which the model does not quite work well is the quick maneuvers past small objects. It's better to go straight on the stone with a new "Lexus" than try to get around it.

Modifications

And finally, a few words about the cost. The new "Lexus" is offered in five versions. Comfort 5S is sold for almost three million rubles. Executive 5S - 3 146 000 rubles. Executive 7S - 3 283 000 rubles. And Premium 7S with the Luxury 7S version - 3 430 000 and 3 541 000 rubles, respectively. All modifications differ from each other in the assembly, interior decoration and some modifications. And so, in principle, they are all good in their own way.
