You might think that the GX 460 offered only great off-road capabilities due to its truck-base architecture, but here was the trick. The mid-size SUV was also a great choice for buyers looking for luxury as well.
For 2010, the SUV’s dimensions did not change very much, however, luxury was improved and new features were added. The most notable equipment added was the Crawl Control technology that worked like cruise control for low speeds, thus allowing the driver to keep his feet of the pedals while running on rugged terrains.
The engine was also updated, cranking 40 more hp than the one the previous model. The powerplant was a 4.6-liter V8 engine that produced 301 hp.
The 2010 model was offered in two trim levels, the base and the Premium. Standard equipment included 18-inch alloys, heated outside mirrors, a sunroof, leather upholstery, heated and ventilated power from seats, power-folding third-row seats (not available for previous models), dual-zone automatic climate control, a back-up camera and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
The premium trim level added an adaptive variable suspension, adaptive xenon headlights, new leather upholstery, a heated steering wheels, heated 2nd row seats, air-conditioning for the rear passengers and additional chrome trim.
Safety wise, the GX 460 featured antilock disc brakes, traction control, stability control, downhill assist control and hill-start assist control. Standalone options included a Pre-Collision system.
