Lexus GX

The Lexus GX 470 is a mid-size luxury SUV sold in North American markets by Toyota's luxury division, Lexus. It is a rebadged deluxe version of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado sold in Asia, Australia, and Europe.
The GX was introduced as a 2003 model in November 2002. The GX was released at the same time as the now-defunct Lincoln Aviator, another of its competitors. In the Lexus lineup, the GX 470 is situated between the entry-level luxury crossover RX and the premium full-size LX.
The Lexus GX 470 is powered by a 4.7 L,VVT-i 32-valve, four-cam V8 2UZ-FE engine with 270,(263 for 2008 models) hp (201 kW) at 5,400 rpm and 330 ft·lbf (447 N·m) of torque at 3,400 rpm. This is one of the largest engines that has ever been put into a Lexus. The largest is a 5.7 Liter V8 featured in the LX 570.
The vehicle is built at Lexus' Tahara plant in Japan. Available exclusively in the North American market, the Lexus GX is touted as a competent contender for serious off-roading while being civilized enough for everyday driving.
