2024 Lexus GX 550 Overtrail+ AAP

The 2023 SEMA show in Las Vegas has showcased some incredible vehicles, and Lexus has left its mark with six modified models. Among them, the 2024 Lexus GX 550 Overtrail+ AAP stands out as a survivalist's dream.

This GX 550 began as a standard 2024 model and received the expert touch of Lexus Associated Accessory Product (AAP) experts. The first noticeable feature is the unique Earth and black bi-tone color scheme, a departure from Lexus's usual style. The SUV is equipped with robust 33-inch tires on 18-inch black wheels, ready to conquer any terrain.

The practicality of the Overtrail+ is impressive. The vehicle boasts ample storage space, including Pelican cargo cases and rotoPax two-gallon containers. Everything is securely held in place by a Prinsu roof rack and window accessory panels, with a ladder for easy roof access. Safety gear includes a DMOS shovel and ARB recovery boards.

Under the hood, the GX 550 remains unaltered, with its potent twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter engine delivering 349 horsepower and 479 lb.-ft. of torque. The 10-speed automatic transmission keeps things running smoothly.

Lexus has yet to reveal the full price of this build, but it serves as a remarkable example of what the GX 550 can become. The standard 2024 GX 550 is available for pre-order, and pricing and exact availability details will follow.
