Serving Westmont, IL

The 2025 Lexus GX 550 offers rugged capability blended with refined luxury—perfect for drivers in Westmont, IL looking for a three-row SUV that performs just as well on weekend getaways as it does during weekday commutes. With six trims in the lineup, the Premium+ and Luxury+ models offer two of the most balanced combinations of upscale features and off-road readiness. But how do these two trims differ?

Performance

Both the 2025 GX 550 Premium+ and Luxury+ trims are powered by a twin-turbo 3.4L V6 engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. This system delivers 349 horsepower and comes standard with four-wheel drive, providing confidence whether you're cruising down I-88 or exploring the trails of Northern Illinois.

The Luxury+ trim enhances performance with electronically adjustable suspension dampers, giving it a smoother ride over uneven terrain or pothole-ridden city streets in Westmont.

Appearance

The rugged, boxy profile of the 2025 Lexus GX is consistent across all trims, but the Premium+ and Luxury+ stand out with trim-specific features. The GX 550 Premium+ features 20-inch alloy wheels, a hands-free liftgate, and standard running boards. The Luxury+ upgrades to 22-inch wheels and power-deploying running boards, adding greater convenience and curb appeal.

Both trims feature the signature Lexus spindle grille, uniquely shaped LED headlights, squared-off fenders, and bold body creases, making a statement whether you're navigating downtown Westmont or heading to the suburbs of Naperville.

Features

Inside, both the Premium+ and Luxury+ provide a luxury experience with plenty of comfort and tech features. Here's how they compare.

The GX 550 Premium+ includes a heated steering wheel, heated front seats, synthetic leather upholstery, a power-folding third-row seating, a surround-view camera, an automated parking system, driver memory settings, adaptive cruise control, wireless phone charging, and a household-style power outlet. There's also blind-spot monitoring, forward collision mitigation, and a standard sunroof.

The Luxury+ trim builds on this with massaging front seats, an adjustable tint sunroof for elevated comfort, second-row sunshades, a cooled center console, a Mark Levinson® premium sound system for high-end audio lovers, and a digital rearview mirror for enhanced rear visibility in all conditions.

Whether you prioritize comfort, convenience, or premium entertainment, the Luxury+ delivers added refinement over the already impressive Premium+.
