On the exterior side, the forthcoming 2022 Lexus GX460 should get some serious updates. Lexus stated that the new SUV would feature many improvements. That means we can expect a revised front fascia with a fresh sizeable spindle-style 3-dimensional grille.

The previous model comes with a grille that is flanked by triple-beam LED headlights, but this time expects more shaped headlights. Like the outgoing model, the new one will also sit on the same body-on-frame construction, rolling on the same 18-inch wheels. However, the Premium model brings more attractive silver 18-inch alloy wheels.

The new 2022 Lexus GX 460 comes with a very roomy cabin. It offers a 3-row/7-occupant seating configuration and a third row that can folds flat. However, the pair of 2nd-row captain’s chairs are optional, cutting the seat count to six. In the base form, the latest GX460 includes simulated-leather upholstery, 10-way power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone climate control, power moonroof, power-adjustable steering column, and keyless entry/ignition.

As for the entertainment and phone connectivity, the GX460 comes standard with a 8-inch touchscreen, 9-speaker AM/FM/CD display audio system, Siri Eyes Free iPhone, Amazon Alexa, and Google Assistant.
