2026 Lexus GX
One configuration per trim, named under each heading, with its numbers as Lexus prints them. “Up to” is a ceiling printed over several configurations (the notes say whose), “from” the lowest figure, and a range is printed across that configuration’s grades. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label.
Third-partyA double underline marks a figure from a magazine test, dealer or spec site, not Lexus’s own documents: shown only where Lexus publishes nothing, and never used for a headline, comparison or ranking. Its page is listed under the plate.

Stock figures: 2026 GX Specifications. Solid outline = from the maker; dashed = our estimate, ± how far off it may be. Double = from a magazine test, dealer or spec site, where the maker publishes nothing. “Up to” and “from” are the maker’s words: a ceiling or a floor, not this configuration’s exact number.
Part masses are typical, not yours. This is an estimate, not a weighbridge: weigh your rig.
