Lexus brings a dash of rugged elegance to SEMA 2023 with three distinct off-road inspired builds. Under the spotlight are the LX and GX models, each boasting unique upgrades from Lexus' Associated Accessory Product (AAP) program.
These builds not only celebrate the brand's capable SUV lineup but also the outdoor spirit that Lexus embodies.
2022 Lexus LX 600 Premium AAP Build
The LX 600 Premium gets an alluring Aquamarine body wrap, paired with matte gray exterior elements accenting the grille and 18-inch wheels. It's designed for spontaneous weekend getaways, featuring 33-inch Toyo Open Country A/T tires and a Kammok Crosswing Car Awning for sun and rain protection.
The outdoor fun extends with a mini kitchen for meal prep, and a paddleboard and surfboard mounted on the roof rack. Powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine, the LX 600 churns out 409 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque.
2022 Lexus GX 460 Premium AAP Build
The GX 460 Premium wears a vibrant Matte Yellow Saffron wrap, standing tall on 18-inch wheels wrapped in 34-inch Toyo Open Country A/T tires.
The off-road persona is amplified with a full skid plate and off-road rock sliders from CBI. It's a campsite on wheels with features like a 10-foot-long Kammok Roo Double Hammock, a 63-quart fridge freezer for food storage, a portable air compressor, and recovery boards.
Under the hood, it harbors a 4.6-liter V8 engine, delivering 301 horsepower and 329 lb-ft of torque.
2024 Lexus GX 550 Overtrail+ AAP Build
The brand new GX 550 Overtrail+ is an adventurous spectacle with its Earth and Black exterior finish.
This build comes equipped with black-painted over-fenders, aluminum skid plates, 18-inch wheels, and 33-inch Toyo Open Country A/T tires.
Off-road enthusiasts will appreciate the two-gallon fuel containers, shovels, recovery boards, and an onboard tire compressor. Even with a smaller 3.4-liter V6 engine, the twin-turbocharged GX 550 manages a respectable 349 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque.
Each of these builds encapsulates Lexus' dedication to blending luxury with outdoor readiness. The unveiling at SEMA 2023 invites adventure enthusiasts to explore the wild side of Lexus, where elegance meets the rugged trails.
