How much cargo space does a Lexus GX have with seats down?

The Lexus GX can provide up to about 64.7 cubic feet of cargo space when both rear rows are folded flat. That maximum figure sits above the space with only one row folded, and it varies slightly by year and trim.


The GX is a three-row SUV that blends off-road capability with family practicality. Cargo capacity changes depending on whether you fold the third-row seat, the second-row seat, or both. Below are the typical figures you’ll see in recent model years when the rear seating configuration changes.


Cargo space by seating configuration


The following figures represent common configurations used to maximize cargo space. They illustrate how space shifts as you fold down seating rows.



  • Behind the third row (seat up): approximately 12.3 cubic feet (cu ft).

  • Behind the second row (third row down, second row up): approximately 46.7 cubic feet (cu ft).

  • Maximum with both second and third rows folded flat (behind the front seats): approximately 64.7 cubic feet (cu ft).


In practical terms, folding both rear rows gives you the largest loading area for larger items, while keeping one row up still leaves a modest amount of space for everyday gear like groceries or a few suitcases.



These numbers are based on recent Lexus GX specifications, and exact figures can vary slightly by model year, trim level, and how the floor is configured (some models offer a slightly different floor height or storage bin layout). If you’re planning a specific load, it’s a good idea to check the exact specs for your vehicle year and trim or measure your cargo with the seats configured as you’ll use them most often.


Summary


For most buyers, the key takeaway is that the GX offers about 12.3 cu ft behind the third row, around 46.7 cu ft with the third row down, and up to roughly 64.7 cu ft with both rear rows folded—plenty of flexibility for passengers, gear, and occasional airport runs. Always confirm the exact numbers for your specific year and trim to account for any variations.
