In terms of appearance, the front of the new car still uses a spindle-shaped front grille. The internal structure of the grille is processed with wide lines, which has a stronger visual impact and makes the whole vehicle look larger. There are obvious square ridges on both sides of the front cover, highlighting the so-called masculine temperament. The headlights on both sides are completely horizontal to the upper section of the grille, forming a straight line. The simple use of lines makes the GX look unpretentious and aggressive, in line with the image of hardcore off-road capabilities. The barbs and tear-eye shapes of the headlights are also familiar. The shape is relatively narrow and long, and the internal structure is fine, which is an important factor in highlighting the sense of luxury.
The new GX has a relatively long side, and the lines of the windows and the shape of the wheel arches can also be drawn as equal signs. The enlarged windows can better ensure the visibility of the occupants in the car, which is also a necessary feature of a true off-road vehicle.

The design of the rear of the car is also completely new. The first thing you can notice is the through-type taillights that run across the rear. It is also a design that new and old cars must have. Without it, it would be equivalent to being outdated. The lines at the rear are more square and square, and there aren’t many details that can be explored. It is worth mentioning that this new GX is equipped with a dedicated off-road package, including the aforementioned AT tires and silver aluminum lower guards that can be seen front and rear. In addition, the rear windshield of the new car can be opened separately, making it more flexible in use.
