The Lexus GX 460 seats seven and offers up to 64.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the first row when all rear seats are folded, with about 11.6 cubic feet available behind the third row when it is in use.

Seating capacity
Understanding how many people the GX 460 can carry and how different layouts affect seating counts.
Seat configurations
In standard form, the GX 460 provides seating for seven: a full third row and a second row that can be either a bench (three across) or optional captain's chairs (two across) depending on trim. A six-passenger setup uses second-row captain's chairs, reducing total seats.
- Seven-passenger layout: second-row bench seat and a foldable third-row seat.
- Six-passenger layout: second-row captain's chairs with a fold-down third row when needed.
- Third-row seat folds flat to boost cargo space when not carrying passengers.
With these configurations, the GX 460 remains flexible for families and travelers who balance people and gear.
