Prose overview

The 2024 Lexus GX carries a maximum towing capacity of 8,000 lbs when properly equipped, paired with a Class III hitch. As with every truck and SUV, the rating swings by engine, drivetrain, cab and bed configuration, and rear axle ratio — so two 2024 Lexus GXs on the same lot can be rated thousands of pounds apart. Match your trailer to the lowestrelevant limit (towing capacity, payload, GCWR, and hitch rating), and verify against the sticker inside the driver's-side door jamb.

2024 Lexus GX towing FAQ

What is the maximum towing capacity of a 2024 Lexus GX?

A properly equipped 2024 Lexus GX is rated to tow up to 8,000 lbs. This maximum applies only to specific engine, axle, and tow-package combinations — most trims tow less.

What hitch class does the 2024 Lexus GX need?

Based on its rated capacity, the 2024 Lexus GX typically pairs with a Class III hitch. Always match the hitch to your loaded trailer weight and never exceed the vehicle's rated capacity.

Do I need a brake controller to tow with a 2024 Lexus GX?

Most states require trailer brakes — and a brake controller — for trailers over 3,000 lbs loaded. A brake controller syncs the trailer's brakes with the vehicle's for safe, controlled stops.
