Lexus GX 470 V8 235

The Lexus GX 470 V8 235 reaches 60 mph in 7.67 s (100 km/h in 8.14 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.07 s, tripping the lights at 85.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.63 s and the eighth mile in 10.33 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the GX 470 V8 235

The 2003 Lexus GX 470 V8 235 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 2,150 kg with 232 bhp, which works out at 108 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.63 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 5,879th quickest to 60 mph, and the 86th quickest of the 112 Lexuss here. It leaves better than it pulls: 85.7 mph at the lights is only the 6,942nd highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Lexus GX 470 V8 235 0-60 time?
The Lexus GX 470 V8 235 reaches 60 mph in 7.67 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,879th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Lexus GX 470 V8 235 quarter mile time?
16.07 s at 85.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.33 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.63 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Lexus GX 470 V8 235 have?
232 bhp and 2,150 kg, which is 108 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 180 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Lexus GX 470 V8 235?
Closest here on pace: Pontiac Torrent 3.4 V6 185 (7.68 s), SEAT Ateca 1.4 TSI 150 (7.70 s), Mazda CX-60 Skyactiv-D 200 (7.72 s). Each one can be raced against the Lexus GX 470 V8 235 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Lexus GX 470 V8 235 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
