The new Lexus seats five and offers interior comfort features like air filtration, dual-zone front climate control, a leather steering wheel, keyless ignition, and front seatback storage.
Powertrain Options
Under the hood, the Lexus NX 250 configuration features a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder that delivers 203 horsepower and 184-pound feet of torque. The Lexus NX 350 offers a 2.4-liter four-cylinder that outputs 275 horsepower and 317-pound feet of torque. Both feature a standard 8-speed automatic transmission. The NX 250 comes with either front or all-wheel drive, though the NX 350 works only with an all-wheel drive.
FWD NX 250 has a fuel efficiency rate of 26 mpg in the city and 33 mpg on the highway. The NX 250 gets a fuel economy rate of 25 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway, while the AWD NX 350 gets 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.
Infotainment and Connectivity
It is not a Lexus if it lacks high-quality infotainment and connectivity features. Standard features include a 9.8-inch display system that connects with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a seven-inch digital gauge cluster, a ten-speaker stereo, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and navigation that requires a subscription. You also get the ‘Hey Lexus’ virtual assistant to help you connect with in-vehicle features via a voice-first approach.
Features offered as upgrades are a 14-inch touchpad, 17-speaker stereo navigation, and wireless gadget charging.
Safety Features
The new Lexus works hard to keep you and your passengers safe while on the road. All trims offer a rearview camera, forward auto emergency braking, pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, and rear cross-traffic alert. Safe exit assist prevents passengers from opening the doors if another car is approaching.
The lane departure warning helps to stop crashes caused by departing your lane, while the lane keeping assist gives a gentle steering wheel turn to get your car back on track in case a drift occurs. The blind spot monitor identifies vehicles located at the driver’s side and rear and gives a warning through visible, audible, or vibrational signs. Available safety features are a head-up display, hands-free park assist, and front and rear parking sensors.
This year’s Lexus NX will ensure your rides are as enjoyable as possible. It has a 1.2-inch increase in wheelbase that allows it to pass over bumps and maneuver through tight corners comfortably. Begin shopping for your NX with us at DARCARS Lexus of Greenwich now to choose your favorite trim!
