Unveiling the 2024 Lexus GX: Design, Technology, and Performance

Toyota has maintained a 112.2 inch wheelbase for its Land Cruiser wagons for over 30 years, which they call the "golden ratio" for its balance of stability and off-road capability. The new 2024 GX550 also adopts this wheelbase, aiming to strike a balance between on-road stability and off-road maneuverability. The wheelbase affects factors such as approach and departure angles, breakover angle, and overall maneuverability, making it a crucial consideration for off-road vehicles. While the ideal wheelbase varies based on use and personal preference, Toyota's commitment to this wheelbase aims to maintain model efficiency, especially for off-road performance.
