Lexus first introduced this crossover SUV in 2014. It shares a small portion of its parts with the Toyota RAV4, like the wheelbase and structure, but many of the parts are unique to this Lexus. These include styling, suspension, and interior, and are designed to make the Lexus more luxurious. The second generation debuted in 2021.
New/Unique Features
Lexus updated the styling on this vehicle and made it more refined, bolder, and aggressive than the previous year’s model. This includes an updated spindle grille pattern, L-shaped daytime running lights, LED headlights, and full-width, rear taillights. New color options were added that include Grecian Water, Cloudburst Gray, and Redline. Driver technology was updated, too, and it allows drivers to stay informed and connected.
Engine Performance
The NX 350 offers the Lexus Hybrid Electric Drive system. It is a 2.5-liter, inline, turbocharged, 4-cylinder engine with 275 horsepower and all-wheel drive.
