While you are correct that we offer a couple great choices for Class III hitches for a 2022 Lexus GX 460, we cannot confirm whether hitch manufacturers are developing a design for a Class IV application.

With that being said, the only current route is to go with a Class III 2" hitch. I always recommend the Curt Class III - 2" # C13043 over our etrailer hitch # e46YR. Not only does the Curt provide you with the same 500 pound maximum tongue weight capacity and 5000 pound gross towing capacity, it also comes with a superior coating that ultimately provides more protection against rust and corrosion. The Curt takes only about 30 minutes to install and includes an easy bolt-on installation.
