Lexus NX

Variants:

The 2022 Lexus NX is available in three variants namely Exquisite, Luxury, and F-Sport.

Market introduction:

The new Lexus NX was launched in India on 9 March, 2022.

Engine and specification:

The 2022 Lexus NX350h is propelled by a 2.5-litre petrol-hybrid powertrain that has a combined output of 236 bhp and 239Nm and gets an all-wheel-drive setup as standard.

Exterior design:

In terms of appearance, the 2022 Lexus NX retains the body shell of its predecessor. It’s the small yet detailed changes that make the NX look more appealing and modern. Starting with the front, the NX continues with the signature spindle-shaped grille. However, the pattern has been revised and is a departure from the old horizontal struts. The LED DRLs have been repositioned inside the LED headlamp cluster and the bumpers have also been reworked that lend the NX a sharper and edgier stance. 

Moving to the side are the new alloy wheels that get different pattern depending upon the size one choose. Towards the rear of the new NX is a horizontal light bar that runs across the boot. Other notable highlights are the L-shaped split headlamps and the new ‘Lexus’ lettering above the number plate recess.

Interior and features:

Step inside and the new Lexus NX greets you with a revamped cabin. Stacked at the top of the dashboard is the new 14-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The NX is now equipped with a digital driver’s display, a new steering wheel, and fresh leather upholstery.

Colours:

The Lexus NX is offered in Madder Red, Sonic Chrome, White Nova, and Heat Blue exterior shades.

Seating capacity:

The Lexus NX 350h has a seating capacity of five occupants.

Rivals:

The Lexus NX takes on the likes of the BMW X3, Audi Q5, Volvo XC60, and Mercedes-Benz GLC.
