Lexus 2GR-FXE specs: 3.5L (211.8 ci) 6-cylinder, 94 x 83 mm (3.7008 x 3.2677 in) bore and stroke, 12.5:1 compression. Rated 249 hp. DOHC.
The Lexus 2GR-FXE is oversquare — the 3.7008" bore exceeds the 3.2677" stroke by 13.3% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.2677" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,350 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 6 cylinders displaces 35.3 ci (578 cc).
12.5:1 on aluminum heads is high for a production gasoline engine; running a ratio like that on pump fuel depends on chamber design and fuel delivery rather than the number alone.
It is one of 7 engines in the GR family, the largest at 211.8 ci. Factory fitments include the Lexus RX 400h, Lexus GS 450h, Lexus RX 450h and 2 others.

| Head material | aluminum |
| Valvetrain | DOHC |
| Fuel type | gas |
| Advertised HP | 249 hp |
| Bore/stroke character | 1.133 — oversquare — bore exceeds stroke, which favours higher RPM and larger valves |
|---|---|
| Mean piston speed at 6,000 RPM | 3,268 ft/min — conservative for a street engine |
| Displacement per cylinder | 35.3 ci |
| Static compression | 12.5:1 — high enough that pump premium or better is normally required |
