In dimension $d$, ${\boldsymbol Q}$-factorial Gorenstein toric Fano varieties with
Picard number $\rho_X$ correspond to simplicial reflexive polytopes with $\rho_X +
d$ vertices. Casagrande showed that any $d$-dimensional simplicial reflexive
polytope has at most $3 d$ and $3d-1$ vertices if $d$ is even and odd, respectively.
Moreover, for $d$ even there is up to unimodular equivalence only one such polytope
with $3 d$ vertices, corresponding to the product of $d/2$ copies of a del Pezzo
surface of degree six. In this paper we completely classify all $d$-dimensional
simplicial reflexive polytopes having $3d-1$ vertices, corresponding to
$d$-dimensional ${\boldsymbol Q}$-factorial Gorenstein toric Fano varieties with
Picard number $2d-1$. For $d$ even, there exist three such varieties, with two being
singular, while for $d > 1$ odd there exist precisely two, both being nonsingular
toric fiber bundles over the projective line. This generalizes recent work of the
second author.
