2025 GX 550 finally on Lexus site

I want to know what suspension components were added to give the truck a 1” lift up front from the ‘24 models

Based on building out a 25 OT+ equivalent to my fully equipped 24 OT+, it’s a $4600 increase.

Worth it for 1” lift and a few other largely unnoticeable gadgets?

Considering my Lexus dealer has had 2 pre-owned premium+ for $96 and $98k, perhaps the trade in value received might make it a break even, especially considering they show 0 new GX on their website available, in transit or in build stage.
 
I downloaded the 2025 owners manual to check out the new OT+ auxiliary switches and on-board air compressor. Aux switches are there but no mention of the air compressor. :unsure:
 
I built the 25 OT+ on the Lexus Website, exactly as my 2024 and it is coming up over $4000 more than mine.
It is exactly the same but for the 1" lift and the compressor.
I am glad I avoided the increase in price and the added lift, I can do without both.

Exactly. The price increase on the OT/OT+ is insane. Makes me happy I jumped on a ‘24
 
The breakover/approach/departure angles are a bit different, which makes sense if they really did the 1" lift. The prior info on it said no change to that, which didn't seem right. I'd be happy with the lift, but since I have the 2024, I can be happy with the slightly lower ride for highway travel too. Positives either way, and there are companies that will lift it for you if you want it later. On the air compressor, the one I have in the rear is likely better than what will come with it, so that isn't of particular interest to me. Switches would be nice if you put some extra lights on, but that can be added pretty easily. In any event, whenever you buy something, there will be changes later. I try to avoid looking online about products I have bought. Usually that is avoid seeing it cheaper later (like in computers). Here I guess since the price is going up that helps :).
 
I'm starting to see 2025 GX's in the Build Phase this week on my dealer's web site.
My dealer doesn't have anything like that (that I know of). Can you send a link? I'd like to see what that looks like. My salesperson said was mine was on the water, but no way I can track it myself.
 
To me the real question is will the OT models get ceiling vents!

I saw a video of the European version of the 2025 OT and it had the vents. However the euro version didn’t have an air compressor so they might spec the suv totally differently out there.

I was pretty disappointed when I noticed my 24 OT+ didn’t have ceiling vents. And even more let down when I noticed there are clear indentations in the ceiling for where the vents should go.
