    I love how Lexus is keeping real buttons and real handles. People don’t want every configurable aspect of their vehicle to be sloppily shoved into an iPad bolted to the dash. People want real buttons and real dials. Excellent work Lexus

      Except Lexus has been doing the super high tech electronic door handles in a lot of cars... Wherein the latches are electronically actuated, despite having physical handles and mechanical overrides. Looks like they skipped those here, but they're on the RX...

    Dude, your camera is so good! This was especially noticeable at 1:56 when panning out in the interior. It's hard to get the darker features to show up when you have a huge window light source in the background but this looks great!

      No offense, but this is a bit ignorant to say. It's like telling a photographer "man, your camera must be amazing because your photos are fantastic!". It's an insult to the massive amount of post processing time Mark puts into color grading and managing HDR on these shoots, not to mention getting the initial shot right.

      The third row of these smaller three-row SUVs are heavily used and sought after in other markets. They are going to sell a variation of this as the Land Cruiser Prado with three rows in other global markets. When visiting the Philippines, my family at one point had 10 people in my grandfather's Mitsubishi Pajero Fieldmaster (an updated version of the 1990s Montero we had in North America). That was a much smaller vehicle. Although it was tight, we fit (albeit without seatbelts).

    I owned a 2007 GX470…best vehicle I have ever owned. I bought it used with over 140K and it drove like brand new. Maintenance is stupid expensive, but it was relatively easy enough to work on ( I do ALL my own maintenance and repairs ). I had 3 vehicles when I owned my GX and it was my go-to daily driver. I would still own it had I not got rear ended in it. It took a massive hit and was still drivable, it was totaled but I thought it was very impressive how well it took the hit.

      split tailgate omission is a huge mistake on the initial release
      toyota is having problems trying to figure out where to put the hybrid battery. if we bring back the 80 series dual swingout tailgates, we could mount the spare on the rear and also put the battery (or an aux tank) underneath the trunk, or even have a decent footwell for 3rd row passengers.

    I just finished watching your 2023 GX review where you lauded the fact that the vehicle was a "dinosaur", but perfect because it will just last forever without worrying about the headaches of dealing with twin-turbos, electronics out the ying-yang, etc. Now, you're lauding _this vehicle_ which IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE of what you lauded last review. I know I'm not the brightest bulb, but I just can't keep up. I guess I should not have watched the videos back-to back! Granted, this new vehicle appears stellar and is likely "better" than the prior generation in many ways. I guess it remains to be seen if the longevity of this new design will be as well reviewed 20 years from now, as you essentially did with the prior generation GX review.
