2020 Lexus GX vs. 2020 Land Rover Discovery
With a revised front grille and standard LED headlights, car buyers have a lot to look forward to in the 2020 Lexus GX. It also comes fitted with the Lexus Safety System+, rear cross traffic alert, and blind spot monitoring.
As for the 2020 Land Rover Discovery, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration is now a standard. It also has an expansive cargo space and promises excellent handling down the road.
Design & Style
Gifted with three rows of comfortable space, the 2020 Lexus GX is capable of seating up to seven people. There is an option to give up the second row bench and trade it for captain's chairs to comfortably seat six people. With an available upgrade to wood and aluminum trim, the interior comes standard with synthetic leather upholstery and other high end cabin materials.
The 2020 Discovery, on the other hand, basically seats five people. The configuration can be upgraded so that it can seat seven instead. While the first two rows are spacious, the third row is quite tight, thus may be ideal only for kids. This car comes standard with a leather upholstery. It may have an expansive cargo space, but the size is smaller than what its predecessor offers.
Technology & Safety
The 2020 GX's infotainment system is gifted with an easy-to-use interface – thanks to the combination of physical controls with its eight-inch touch screen display. It works well with other technologies like the nine-speaker audio, Bluetooth, two USB ports, Siri Eyes Free, and Amazon Alexa. Aside from having a rearview camera, it is also loaded with other standard safety features included in the Lexus Safety System+. The list includes lane departure warning, pedestrian detection, automatic high-beam headlights, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross traffic alert as a standard to all trim levels.
This Discovery is blessed with the 10-inch touch screen display for its InControl Touch Pro infotainment system. The screen fails to impress though as it responds slowly to a command entered into the system. Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and a 10-speaker audio system are provided. Safety features in the car include blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, park assist, lane keep assist, rain-sensing windshield wipers, automatic high-beam headlights, fog lights, driver drowsiness monitoring, and emergency braking, among others.
Performance
The base engine for the Discovery is a V6, 3.0-liter that supercharges it to produce 340 horsepower. The turbodiesel, 3.0-liter version, on the other hand, gives it up to 254 horsepower. The GX comes standard with a 301-horsepower 4.6-liter V8 engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
The Bottom Line
The 2020 Lexus GX definitely knows how to impress in all the aspects mentioned above. This car has been designed well to suit the ever-changing demands of modern car drivers out there. It also has remarkable technologies, plus a powerful engine to keep you feeling great on the road.
