越野是人们最近开始滥用、一种含糊不清的术语，所以每次驶离道路，在哪里呆一个多小时，都会声称自己在越野了。
（以下来自车主之家）动力方面，这台全新的雷克萨斯GX车型搭载了一台最新的4.6升8缸发动机作为动力，而这台经典的丰田系列发动机最大输出功率被设定为224千瓦，最大输出扭矩也可以达到446牛米，与此同时该车还使用了经典的限滑差速器和分时四驱系统，而这套动力系统的动力输出表现，可以说不仅能够满足四驱越野的需求，在加速性能方面也表现得十分的给力。
内饰方面，前排座椅同时配备了加热和通风功能。我们的试驾车还选装了带有扶手的独立座椅，除了加热之外，还可以完成靠背倾斜、座椅前后滑动等功能调节。另外，雷克萨斯GX460 还提供了第三排座椅选装，但是第三排座椅空间实在有限，很难满足成年人的正常乘坐。内饰材质用料保持了雷克萨斯一贯的高水准，做工精良扎实，处处彰显了与其品牌定位相符的豪华感。唯一略有遗憾的是中央扶手的处理略显廉价。抛光木纹装饰的应用暴露了它的年代感，与如今时尚现代的豪华SUV相比，雷克萨斯GX460 看上去如同中老年人一样。好在GX460方正高大的外观设计为其提供了出色的视野，大面积的车窗以及低窗线的设计保证了驾驶室的空间感，乘坐其中丝毫不会感觉到压抑。
2021款雷克萨斯GX460七座、非承载式车身6挡手自一体、18寸轮、12气囊、空气悬挂、底盘升降动态调节悬挂系统(KDSS)、中央差速锁、天窗、大灯清洗、打孔皮革座椅、电动座椅主驾带记忆、智能钥匙、三区自动空调、8寸屏导航、蓝牙、倒影电动真皮多功能方向盘、定速巡航、桃木内饰压监测、电动调节外后视镜。
全新的雷克萨斯GX460搭载的是一台4.6升V8发动机，其最大功率301马力，峰值输出扭矩446牛·米，与之匹配的是一台六速自动变速箱。GX460的整车重量达到了2.36吨，其0-96km/h直线加速时间为7.4秒，1/4英里加速时间为15.8秒(尾速142.6km/h)。制动性能方面，从96km/h到刹停的制动距离为40.5米，但是在连续紧急制动之后会出现比较明显的性能衰减。另外，安全带预紧功能略显激进，紧急制动时乘客恐怕会受到一点惊吓。
雷克萨斯GX460与丰田普拉多是基于同平台打造而来，因此GX460在越野和通过性能方面自然与广受好评的普拉多不分伯仲。不过，由于豪华属性的加持，GX460需要更多兼顾驾乘舒适性的表现。在高速工况下，无论悬架被设定在何种模式，GX460都营造出与自身豪华定位相符的舒适性。
Lexus GX 460 Overland Concept Is a Luxury Off-Road-Ready RV

Overlanding is the kind of ambiguous term that people have started to abuse lately, so every time somebody leaves the asphalt and spends more than an hour there, they claim they're overlanding.
In reality, this type of activity should be taken a lot more seriously and there are some people who've made a career out of it. Think Andrew St. Pierre White, for example, a guy from Australia who's traveled the world over while making very little use of its existing road network.
So, what is overlanding? Well, the simplest of definitions implies that you need to cover long distances before laying any claim of doing that, hence the reason why most overlanding rigs tend to have tents on their roofs, spare tires, room to carry stuff around, and usually one or more jerrycans. It's because you never know what you're going to find and how long you're going to be out there.
It's also highly unlikely you'll find and service centers for your vehicle, so reliability tends to play a huge role in vehicle choice. That makes Toyotas the number one option, but if, for some reason, you want to overland with a little more style, you can always look at Toyota's more upmarket sister brand, Lexus.
The Lexus GX 460 is a dinosaur, and while that's not exactly a compliment in most cases, it does mean it's a simpler machine, and therefore more reliable. This one, however, has been built by Lexus Canada as a one-off concept car to showcase how the roughly $70,000 body-on-frame SUV can be turned into an overlanding beast with just a few aftermarket upgrades.
The interior is left untouched, which means you get the usual restrained, old-school luxury you get with all the older Lexus models. On the outside, however, the GX 460 Overland Concept doesn't resemble anything that's ever worn the "L" badge.
It's hard to tell what catches the eye first, the massive tent/awning/shower booth combo mounted on the roof, or the aggressive off-road tires complete with black wheels, lifted suspension, and completely modified front bumper with winch and skid plates.
All the weight added up top coupled with the suspension lift make the GX 460 a weird experience on the road but considering it's not exactly quick thanks to its 4.6-liter V8 engine producing 301 horsepower and 329 lb-ft (445 Nm) of torque, the fact it tends to sway in the bends shouldn't really be a problem.
It's actually the off-road/overlading gear that deserves to be analyzed, and how well it's been implemented on such an unlikely vehicle, if we're being honest. Well, it turns out they've done a pretty good job if two people with no experience had no problem unfolding everything, though everyone who's ever put up a tent knows that's not the hard part but folding it back into its tiny bag.
The Lexus GX 460 Overland Concept can't be bought, but anyone interested can either look at all the companies involved in the build - there are stickers on the side - and get in touch with them directly, or just give Lexus Canada a call and ask for support. However, we do believe you can get much better rigs for the price of this build (probably in the $90,000 region), not to mention skip overlanding altogether and use the money to go on regular vacations for the rest of your life.
