lexus experience amazing
Thank you! I was looking for fuel consumption, and everywhere it was 1.1 because of PlugIn.
Really nice car which I'm sure handles wonderfully. Not sure about that price, tho.
What do you think about the colour of this car? In some light it almost looks a bit pink
I think repainting elements will be a nightmare :)
Just buy a Rav4 Prime for $20k less and it's a full second faster to 60 mph too
Yes, because a Lexus buyer wants a faster SUV, not a more silent, premium, better quality vehicle. Grow up.
Toyoda "Toyota" has become a lazy corporation, like the USA market for the past 50 years plus. It's the same Rav4 Nickel Hydride BS. Its the same in the NX. 304hp? Just hapoens to be 2 more hp than the Rave4 Prime. It shows you, when they put all that extra luxury crap in the car, it makes it heavier and reduces the range by about 5 miles on EV and about 10 miles for the overall range. The named the RX a "450" so they can charge more for an RX350. Its an RX350H+. Thats all it is. Take Rav4 Prime, make it heavier and less efiicient and charge more with a bigger profit margin. How about a bigger battery and a lithium ion in a bigger vehicle.
Your comment makes absolutely no sense. Why change the formula if it's been proven to work so well? Why would they equip a luxury SUV from the Toyota group with a drivetrain other than the most reliabile iteration of theirs? Remember the RX used to have a 3.5 liter hybrid engine which you couldn't have on a RAV4. Having a PHEV mated to a 3.5 just doesn't work nowadays due to emission standards just like for any other auto maker. It doesn't mean they are lazy if they choose reliability across the whole range of their products.
Why choose a Lexus over a Toyota then? Simple. Just like you'd choose Acura over Honda or Genesis over Hyundai. Quality.
@Seba-ch3yq Being Lazy as a corporation and what makes profiteering are completely different subject. I do enjoy these unsolicited, "makes no sense" replies. Your reply warrants some consideration abs holds some validity but, yoir premise and incorrect comprehension of what I stated, merits you not much consideration. Again, you also replied to a comment not for you. Most reliable drive train? Do you know Toyotas recently with Hybrid and Turbo charged 4 cylinders? They do standalone 4 cylinders and V6s very well. Even their V8s of old as gas guzzlers. If it ain't broke, doesn't mean the consumer has to accept complacency. Note the USA market for the last 7
50 years. Toyotas are actually becoming less reliable, with more recalls and Do ai mention airbags? Takada anyone. Killed how many? 100s of billions in fines and reimbursements. You meant LUXURY and not quality. It is slightly better quality as Lexus is made just for "Lexuses" [proper pluralism of Lexus.] and Toyota is manufactured with less stringent techniques in many different plants. _Even Mexico. All about profits now. I do have 2 Rav4 Primes, an NX Phev and might trade in for the overly priced RX450H+ that even gets less range. 2 more HP is BS. It's more luxury really and more money/profit. My Mercedes is a different story. Only in Stuttgart and only a Toyota/Lexus made on Japan is the rule to go by.
Genesis isn't really known for reliability and their parent Hyundai has become even worse. #Scotty. I don't look at Acuras or Hondas anymore. They dropped the ball years ago. They spoiled the Acura brand by going cheap and underpowered and Honda is a step behind 'Toyoda'. Acura had recently stepped their game up, like I've said to do for the last 20 years. Despite the money to buy most anything, a PHEV is the best way to go nowadays. Too bad the Gernans limit it in the dulllard USA. They have some great choices. It's all about EV range and small battery quick charge plus acceleration. 302hp on a Rav4 Prime isn't too shabby. -Still, all SUVs should be banned from retail consumet sales..thank you George Bush Sr. and trillions of dollars.-
@@UhhhhhnooOOo00oO I live in Europe, where Toyota doesn't sell any turbocharged engines. Their only offering here today is the 2.5, either FHEV or PHEV and the 1.8 and 2.0 both N/A on the Corolla. In the land of 2l diesels and German automakers' "supremacy", believe me when I say that Toyota offers the utmost reliability and lowest maintanance costs. And what are people looking for in today's times? Exactly. Idk about USA's car market, but I wish you had the opportunity to try some French scent from Peugeot/Citroen/DS, but I guess if it ain't a 5 ton pickup truck, it won't work there😂
Later edit: Toyota has gone nuts with their new cars' prices though... you won't touch a RAV4 Prime here for less than 50.000€. But still, people buy them because anything that comes from Asia is considered new and reliable, that's my point.
Edit2: Also you could assume Toyota is a lazy corporation for coming up with an electric car so late in the game. And guess what? Now it's almost cheaper to run a FHEV than a fully electric, at least in Europe. Toyota knows their bets and what's coming.
........................................ BUY THE BEST....GET the: NX ....450h+ "F" SPORT/ end of story!
@donaldbanner2185
I don't think that imbecilic choice ended the story.
Just what one wants. A more expensive, harder riding SUV. Why buy an SUV, if you get the bigger Spory Tires, harder suspension and more HP? So, you and yiur chubby family can drive to Walmart. I've leased 2 F-Sports, 5 ES350s, 3 RX350s/450s, an IS-350 and a G-350. Also, 3 RAV4s/Primes. Lexus is for better build quality and Luxury. It's not for Sport. I've driven professional race cars in professional races. Let's buy a luxury SUV Sport? These are humans that think they know something about vehicles, because it sounds or looks "cool". Usually, they can't afford it. You'd buy a Stelvio or a Cayenne GT Turbo, if you wanted to be a clown with powerful/handling SUV. Actually you wouldn't! It's an SUV. Buy an M3/M4/M5, if you want backseat. Nothing like hauling around an extra 1000lbs for you to get your extra microwavable pizzas. George Bush Sr. allowing these morinic SUVs. I've owned them and use them where nobody lives besides me. My 3rd home with 150 acres on a lake. They should be banned from the road. Can't brake, can't see around them, weigh too much, aren't actual SUVs (they are cars and not trucks), can't high speed maneuver due to center of gravity and fools drive then too fast, the second snow or rain comes out. My 2 Mercedes sedans can put these SUVs to shame in inclement weather.
In summation: That is the worst suggestion. Just so happens to be one of the most expensive Toyota options. How about you say..."Get the RX500H+." next time? Rhetorical. That wouod be a more expensive worse selection. I guess Toyota really convinced you, when they marketed to 27-45 year olds with a Sports/Luxury vehicle. All BS
