The Lexus GX 460 is a big and perhaps top heavy luxurious SUV and (according to Consumer Reports) you shouldn't buy it because its not safe.
Why?
Because when they conducted a test that simulates a rapid charge up a curved highway ramp…the back end of the Lexus swung out of control before the stability control intervened and brought the car back under control.
Technically it would be called a tendency to oversteer during in-corner throttle lift and Consumer Reports says that it is a "safety risk".
Consumer Report goes on to warn that in a situation like this the Lexus could hit a curve and even flip over.
Watch the their video below to see the test and what happens to the Lexus when they hustle it around a curve.
