Lexus teases 2024 GX and TX again, with the big reveal coming Thursday

Lexus teases 2024 GX and TX again, with the big reveal coming Thursday



Lexus is dealing a one-two punch of big SUVs in Austin, Texas, on June 8. The 2024 Lexus GX is the long-awaited follow-up to the current off-road wonder, and the 2024 Lexus TX will be an all-new family-oriented 3-rower. But before they're unveiled in full Lexus is circulating a couple more teasers giving us the best looks yet at the two trucks.

So far the only glimpses we've gotten of the GX are a front headlight corner and a rear upper three-quarters shot. The latest images show the whole shebang, though it's partially obscured by big plumes of mud and water that the rig is splashing through. It's what we surmised from the other teasers — that the GX has finally gotten a mean, muscular makeover to match its off-road prowess.

Perhaps the GX's most controversial design element, the spindle grille inspired by Toyota's pioneering automatic loom business in the early 20th century, is much subdued. It's still there, but it no longer looks grafted on (which it was on the current GX, whose debut in 2009 predates Lexus' adoption of the spindle). Now the grille looks much more integrated into the front and, at least on the trim level shown, wears black outlines rather than chrome.
