A compelling December lease deal is available for the 2025 Lexus GX combining luxury, capability, and value. If you’ve been eyeing this premium SUV, now’s the perfect time to take advantage of an offer you shouldn’t miss.

Lexus GX 550 (2025)

So this new GX, bro… it’s completely different from the old boxy one your dentist drove in 2012. It’s bold, it’s chunky, it’s got those squared-off fenders that scream, “I go off-road but still smell like luxury cologne.” It’s got a twin-turbo V6 now, like 349 horsepower, which is a lot for something shaped like an SUV Lego piece. Inside? Straight up bougie—plush leather, massive touchscreen, and that quiet Lexus cabin feel. The deal that’s going around this December is, like, wow. Around $799 a month with a few grand down, depending on your area. Sounds steep, but compared to Range Rovers or G-Wagons, it’s basically the smart man’s luxury tank. Honestly, it’s giving adventure dad vibes but in style.

Toyota Land Cruiser (2025)

Now the new Land Cruiser is kinda like the GX’s reliable cousin who shows up in hiking boots instead of loafers. It’s got the same 2.4L turbo hybrid setup, kinda less power but better MPG. And it’s cheaper, around $55,000. I actually think a lot of people might go for this one instead of the GX just because it feels purpose-built. But if you care about comfort as much as crawling over rocks, the GX just feels more, you know, ‘finished.’

Lexus LX 600

Alright, I gotta mention the big bro — the LX 600. That’s like, “you’ve made it, but you still camp at private glamping sites” energy. Massive V6 twin-turbo, luxury everywhere. It’s around $100,000 though, so not exactly casual money. I sat in one a few months ago and, man, it’s plush. Everything smells like new-money leather. Honestly, though, I prefer the GX’s more rugged design now. It’s cooler, more personality, less CEO chauffeur vibe.

Toyota Sequoia

The Sequoia is like the GX but just… bigger. Like, unnecessarily big, but somehow in a comforting way? It’s got the hybrid twin-turbo V6 too, about 437 horsepower, and that thing can tow a small house. Price-wise, it starts around $60,000. But it feels kinda floaty on the road. If you’ve got a big family and a boat, sure. Otherwise, I’d still pick the GX just for that tight Lexus fit and finish.

BMW X5

The X5? Still solid, still sporty, but man, every time I check one out, it just feels like it’s missing some spark. Fast, luxurious, techy—no complaints, just… I don’t know, doesn’t grab me emotionally. It starts around $66,000. The 40i engine is smooth, quick, like perfect German engineering, but there’s something about the GX that’s more satisfying to sit in. Maybe I’m just tired of seeing so many BMWs in every Trader Joe’s parking lot.

Mercedes GLE

Okay, the GLE is probably the GX’s direct rival. I like how clean it looks inside, very polished. It’s one of those cars that make you feel fancier than you are. $65,000-ish starting price. Drives silky-smooth, handles well, and has that Benz smell—you know what I mean if you’ve been in one. But it can get pricey fast once you start ticking options. And, honestly, I’d still trust a Lexus more to age gracefully. Mercedes electronics? Hmm… let’s just say I’ve seen things.

Range Rover Sport

The Range Rover Sport is stunning, no question. But every time I think about it, my wallet starts sweating. Starts around $90,000 and climbs faster than your heart rate when the check engine light comes on. Still, the design? Perfect. Ride comfort? Best in class. But the GX feels more practical. It’s the difference between the guy who hikes in $900 sneakers and the one who actually climbs the hill.

Acura MDX Type S

Now, the MDX Type S is that underdog people forget about. Honestly, it’s pretty sweet. Turbo V6, all-wheel drive, punchy when you want it to be. The design’s finally catching up to the Germans too. Starting at about $67,000 for the Type S trim, it’s a sneaky good deal. The interior’s comfy as heck, and the handling’s kinda fun. But that infotainment touchpad thing? Ugh, I can’t. Lexus has that same problem though, so maybe it’s just me being picky.

Infiniti QX80 (2025)

The new QX80 is finally getting a glow-up next year, thank goodness. The old one looked like a suburban school bus with chrome wheels. The 2025 one’s gonna cost around $85,000 and bring way better design, cabin materials, and tech. I feel like Infiniti’s been slowly waking up, but whether it’ll actually match something like the GX in quality… eh, jury’s out. It’ll need to nail refinement to compete.

Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe

And then there’s the Grand Cherokee 4xe. I actually love this thing. Plug-in hybrid, like 25 miles of electric range, then gas kicks in for longer trips. It’s surprisingly capable off-road and quiet when cruising in EV mode. Around $60k for a decent trim, more for a fancy Summit or Trailhawk version. I think if you want something adventurous but still eco-ish, this might scratch that itch. I just trust Lexus more for reliability long-term, you know?
