GWM Tank Surprises in Aussie Off-Road Test, Outpacing Lexus GX and Land Cruiser

In an Australian CarExpert off-road comparison of three-row SUVs, the Land Rover Defender claimed the top spot, with the Lexus LX 600 and Prado/Land Cruiser close behind. The Lexus GX and the J300 Land Cruiser struggled on the roller section, while the Chinese GWM Tank breezed through that test and, across the rest of the evaluation, matched or beat the Toyotas in overall scoring—outscoring both GX and the J300—though the host rated the Tank at the bottom due to traction-control quirks, leaving some questions about long-term durability.

A late 2023 reveal seems likely, and it could go on sale as early as January 2024.

The Significance of the 2024 Lexus GX for EVs and Toyota Land Cruiser.

The Lexus GX's ladder frame chassis was designed with the capability of housing battery packs, as well as hybrid and electric powertrains. While hybrids are likely to come first, battery-electric vehicles are also possible in the future. The solid rear axle, which is preferred for off-roading, will remain in the electrified version. The GA-F platform, which underpins the GX, Sequoia, and Land Cruiser, was designed to have a long life-cycle, and electrification is necessary for it to remain competitive for another decade.
