Lexus is expanding its adventure-focused lineup with the introduction of the Overtrail grade for its flagship LX SUV in 2025. Building on the success of the GX Overtrail, the LX Overtrail caters to customers seeking the ultimate blend of off-road capability and Lexus’s signature luxury and refinement.
Uncompromising Off-Road Prowess
The LX Overtrail is engineered for serious off-road adventures. Beyond its rugged exterior styling, the Overtrail boasts bespoke mechanical enhancements designed to maximize traction and ground clearance in challenging terrains. Front, center, and rear locking differentials provide exceptional low-speed grip, complementing the LX’s existing suite of off-road aids, including Multi-Terrain Select, Downhill Assist Control, Crawl Control, Multi-Terrain Monitor, and Active Height Control.
Further enhancing the LX Overtrail’s off-road prowess are 265/70R18 Toyo Open Country all-terrain tires, offering a taller sidewall than other LX models. These tires are fitted to unique 18-inch Overtrail alloy wheels.
Distinctive Exterior Design
The LX Overtrail’s exterior distinguishes itself with black accents on the front spindle grille, front and rear bumpers, wheel arches, side mirrors, door handles, window moldings, and roof rails. These black highlights create a rugged yet refined aesthetic, setting the Overtrail apart from the rest of the LX range.
Powertrain Options
The LX Overtrail offers a choice of two powerful twin-turbocharged, intercooled V6 engines. The 3.3-litre diesel produces 227 kW (304 hp) and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque, available from 1600-2600 rpm. The 3.5-litre petrol engine delivers an impressive 305 kW (409 hp) and 650 Nm (479 lb-ft) of torque.
Hybrid Powertrain on the Horizon
As announced globally in October 2024, the 2025 LX range will introduce a hybrid powertrain in select markets. Lexus Australia is currently evaluating the feasibility and suitability of this hybrid option for Australian customers.
Availability and Further Details
Lexus Australia will announce pricing and full specifications for the 2025 LX range, including the LX Overtrail, closer to its launch in the first half of 2025.
