Wall Street vs Main Street Hybrid Edition - Lexus NX vs Toyota RAV4

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 พ.ค. 2020
- The current Lexus NX is the ritzy cousin to the former Toyota RAV4, so when the company luxury CUV dropped by for a week it made perfect sense to compare it to the all-new RAV4 Hybrid. How does Wall Street compare to Main Street? Let's just say things look better for Toyota lately.

My mind is saying RAV4, but my heart is saying NX.
Haha I’m in the same situation
Then the Easy CORRECT Answer is the Wonderful 2021 Toyota Venza (LE or XLE or Limited). Easy Peasy.
Dude .... same
Same here....
my heart is saying Mercedes GLC😂
Great Review Alex! I shopped both the 2020 NX and Rav hybrids and chose the 2020 Rav4 XSE hybrid because of the better gas mileage and preferred the way it looks. Averaging 41mpg over the past
6 months and no refueling issues at all.
Keep up the awesome reviews
We have owned a few generations of Rav4. No complaints. We recently bought a Lexus NX F-Sport in white and it turned a lot of heads. I don’t think I will ever go back to Toyota. It feels luxurious, looks nice and great reliability (something German cars can’t compete in this category)
Yes, Lexus is more near-luxury vs Germans.
@@normt5463 Lexus is luxury, period.
@@kCI251 Lexus is short on product today as premium brands move up where Lexus is today. Lexus doesn't compete with other luxury auto companies today.
So sorry to hear about the divorced headlamps, time heals all
They need tome apart to do some soul-searching
It's the kids, e.g. the fog lights, that always end up suffering the most.
lol
Yes it's true time wounds all heels. Just asked a Achilles
Seems like more and more headlamps end up as a statistic. I’ve read that over 50% of all Lexus designed headlamps, end up being divorced.
Your reviews are the best I've seen on TH-cam. The split screen comparisons are great! thanks
Really like the side by side interior portion of the video. Great work!
I love the way you do your videos. They are to the point and very informative and easy to understand. Well done.
Answer: NO ITS NOT WORTH IT. Get the Toyota and get the Mpg of a Honda Civic in an suv
Love this dual screen presentation. Alex is the best,
Thank you for this wonderful,most detailed review of these two vehicles.You are making me love my rav 4 the more.One of the best review👍
The two best Hybrid SUVs in the market today! Great review as always Alex.
Nope MDX SPORT HYBRID
Excellent comparison. I used to have an NX, now I drive an RX. I am contemplating buying a Rav4 as the second car. It was very informative. Thanks!
Very nice comparison. I especially like the data comparison shared on the screen. Thank you, Alex.
I really love that NX. It honestly looks gorgeous to me
If the NX didn't have that outdated hybrid system and the touchpad I would have gone Lexus but nope.
Jeanejean how about the Lexus RX hybrid
@@LiquidSm0ke the Toyota V6 hybrids are not very efficient. Plus Toyota brings out new stuff for itself and not Lexus if that gives you an indication of where they are headed
Best comparison I have been watching so far
RAV4 Hybrid 2019 ALL DAY! Unbelievable Gas Mileage! 10,000KM and very happy so far!
Can't wait for the NX redesign. Hope it gets close to the Rav4 Hybrid mpg.
They should just skip straight to the new plug-in architecture. 300hp in a sleek AWD Lexus package seems quite appealing.
They're going to be built in Canada instead of Japan though
@@bvedant just like the RX. built in canada is a good thing.
@@bvedant they will be built in both Canada and Japan. The Canadian plant that builds the RX and will also build the NX is in the top most awarded of all Lexus/Toyota plants in the world!
@@davedave2109 "Most awarded"? For what?
Here’s my take
Rav4 over regular NX
NX F sport over the rav4.
Excellent video and side by side breakdown!
I like this Main St vs. Wall St concept. It gives you an idea as to whether it’s worth getting into a luxury brand over a well equipped mainstream brand.
Lexus is underwhelming and overrated beside top vehicles
This is a great comparison, Alex.
I've watched other videos, this side by side is soooo helpful.
Thanks for the detailed comparison review
You are an amazing reviewer honest to god
I have 2020 RAV4 and get 44mpg! Very pleased with my car. If you want the Lexus I would wait for a new version.
Agreed.
Incredible detailed video! Subbed!!
Thank you for a thorough review!
Thank you for the thorough review. This is exactly the type of info I was after!
This is what I’ve been waiting for ⌚️💵❤️
Let's not forget the 3 words written inside the drivers door jam on the NX only:
"MADE IN JAPAN" not made in Kentucky...... I know which one i will buy!
that would be my deciding factor. Although there are some Rav4s made in Japan
Alex, thank for an objective comparison. It seems more obvious that competition, who have been offering many features in there lower-end models, are squeezing Toyota into offering the same features, once saved for their luxury models, into their regular models.
RAV4 for the win. And awesome 1v1 review, Alex 😁🙏🏻🙏🏻
Very professional comparsion, thanks bro.
Well done, awesome review Subed 🔥🔥🔥
Decided for the Rav4 thanks to this. Great review!
Alex have you had issues with the gas tank as described in the class action lawsuit?
Great snacks at the Lexus dealer..Buy the Lexus get it serviced at the Toyota dealerships. Learned that with my LS430..
Alex you work is absolutely outstanding, you practically cover and answer all the questions a potential buyer could have in mind and way beyond that. In my mind I love the Toyota features and fuel efficiency but I would go with the NX all day long because of the in cabin driving experience, ultimately you feel more eager to drive a car in which you feel more comfortable and visually attracted and since Lexus has the well known reliability it would be the ideal pick for me and absolutely sure about my wife as well, she loves premium stuff. I think is worth the extra cash paid and probably that technology will be available on the next NX versions. Awesome work once again, keep it up.
Nice review/comparison, I do have a little issue with what you listed as the standard safety features, the 2020 NX has the full Toyota safety suit 2.0, which has everything you listed for the Rav, just recently bought my wife a 2020 NX F-sport.
Great comparison review of these near matched vehicles Alex, THANKS. Did you ever wish you'd gone with the Lexus after deciding to purchase the to RAV4? Power passenger seats is hard option to find these days, I've noticed..
Thanks for the great review!
I just acquired mine today and listening to your comments I will be returning it for an RX450 premium to get the best.
What’s the sound deadening cost？ that’s one thing I would appreciate... in any car.
I hadn't considered the RAV4 until this video. Thanks!! I think it lost me at no leather tho
Suggestion, updated video to the Rav4 Hybrid 2022 vs 2022 NX. Great videos!
Please do a comparison on the 2020 rav 4 limited, 2020 Lexus rx350 and the 2020 Lexus NX 300 Please ...I need to choose one by the end of the year.
Awesome! Thank you for the review !
getting my wife the rav4 limit for sure (gotta have those ventilated seats for Texas summer). check crash test especially side pole for both model and I think the benefits come with the new TNGA platform makes rav4 the no brainer.
Thank you for such detailed review! I m considering these 2 cars ! After finding out NX300h.is a 2018 RAV4 engine; I m hesitant to move forward😬
The following is true for basically every luxury brand: unless you're getting the two highest trims of a given model, the are usually not much better than non-luxury cars optioned with their top trims. And top trim luxury cars, specially German brands, cost WAY too much.
You get what you pay for?
Great video. I bought the 2019 RAV4 Hybrid. I was surprised that Toyota updated the RAV4 before the NX. It is hard to justify the NX.
NX is next year, the previous rav was out for 6 years as well.
New rav4 is very nice! Previous rav4 was way outdated and boring. I had a previous rav4 as car hire for a week while switching in between my NX200t with turbo, it’s not comparable, NX has way more power, much better interior, ride quality is superb.... I test drove the NX hybrid for 2min and left and got the turbo version, hybrid is just ultra boring
@@Ilikepie18855 I like pie, too! Enjoy your NX200t!
Great comparison video👍
Awesome review 👍🏻
I think both are grate but having been in both the Lexus IS by far more sturdy and solid. Much better quality and the rav is no slouch
FYI you can get smart key entry on all doors in the rav4. It’s offered in the limited trim via the advanced technology pacakge
Alex, does it make sense to do a comparison between Lexus UX 250h and Rav4 Hybrid? Thanks.
I like the boxy RAV4, just like I also prefer the Telluride over the Palisade of the Korean twins.
best comparison video, good job
My 2019 RAV4 hybrid regularly gets between 42-45 MPG (US gallons), and that's manually calculating distance travelled and gasoline dispensed. The trip computer is really accurate.
Great video!
Thanks, I was looking for a used rav4 or nx300h but i definitely want the newer hybrid system so ill be looking for a rav4
When you do split screen comparison, if you can indicate which one is which model, that would be super helpful for people like me that are new to cars. Thank you!!
We need to wait to the NX 2022 ~ my humble opinion !
I wish I could find more videos on my beloved 2nd Gen. 2009 Lexus RX350 AWD... Comparisons, Off Road... etc.. etc... For it being such a popular car, there really aren't many videos about them.
Great review! TFS
Hi Alex, I hope you do this comparison for the 2022 NX 300h and RAV4 Hybrid Limited. In particular comparison of seat comfort and safety tech would be interesting now that the drive trains are the same.
When RAV4 came out, all the reviewers complained about engine noise. But Alex said it was only 1 Db louder than the Lexus. Interesting.
Which one is better for daily long distance drive?
That is a good damn head of hair. Way to go Alex.
When you do a side by side view it might be helpful to have a little mark of which side is which car. Would make it easier for the audience to keep track. Excellent review/comparison
It says on top which one is which
I've not driven either car but both are on my wish list for my next change, likely in 2021. I buy used cars around a year old with 10K miles driven or less. The NX used and Rav4 used that age and use are close on price - maybe the NX300H is £1000 or so more on the main dealer price. The jury is out until the lockdown ends and I am able to test drive both models! Its good to hear that Lexus can be serviced at Toyota dealerships, where there is one within 25 miles of my home, Lexus dealerships in are in cities further away....
What is the name of the hybrid system on the Rav4 where the Lexus is outdated? I am interested in this to know if the 2021 Lexus models will have it otherwise won't buy.
It would be great to see an updated review with the new model NX
1:25 it’s about time you were surprised by this .
Until they update the NX to have the same mpg as the hybrid Rav the NX is pointless, especially with NX’s horrendous infotainment controls.
Honda does the same with Acura...Infiniti too. Back seat for their luxury brands
The Lexus is always going to be a generation behind, they wait for the technology to prove its reliability and longevity before using it in the Lexus range.
Better off with the RAV4 in this case
"Nike Swoosh" lol I was trying to figure it out myself on the lexus!
It's NOT a Nike swoosh. I can't believe people don't get it. It's an "L" for "Lexus". It's all over the car. They say it in all their literature. IT'S AN L FOR LEXUS PEOPLE, IT'S NOT THAT DIFFICULT A CONCEPT TO UNDERSTAND. Why would Lexus use a Nike swoosh?
I went from a Camry Hybrid to a Lexus ES Hybrid and it was more of an upgrade than I expected. The quality of materials is better and the overall feel is improved and again, there was more difference than I had expected. Of course right now the older design on the current NX is a disadvantage. If the price difference remains close to the same as you described it's a no-brainer for me. I would chose to wait for the new NX.
oh..something important...the hat on the lights on the lexus is great..because light focus tend to go yellow with years..this protect.
Just realized I first watch your video while you work on Honda civic GX....
If the 11th digit of your VIN is a C, it was built on the exact same assembly line as the RAV4, in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada.
If you drive a car you just to go from A to B get the RAV4, if you are looking for emotions also Lexus NX is still the one...
THX ALEX, I'm just asking myself exactly this question!!
Esp when considering used models. Rav4 hybrid is so popular it's scarce. So I'm finding same mileage used versions or 2019 rav4 vs 2017 or 2018 nx hybrids are the same price tag. For me, switching from a gas guzzling Mazda CX9 the lexus is looking like the better deal and there are so many more to choose from! I am leaning toward Lexus for the better build and comfort and longer warranty (even though the mileage can't match the newer Rav4). Next car will likely be a Tesla so hybrid is a 3 year bridge to full EV either way.
Mazda CX9 is similar to Lexus RX450HL. Can't really compare against Lexus NX
When will the new NX be available, on the road ?
I hope an NX redesign comes soon
For now I would have the Rav4. In the meantime I wonder what a newly redesigned NX will be like?
To much high tech makes unreliable
My 2017 Rav4 Hybrid Limited lease concludes 6/1. Today the Toyota dealer and the Lexus dealer each responded to my request for new lease prices. 2020 Rav4 Hybrid Limited w Cold Weather Package versus NX with Premium Pkg and Nav Pkg. Both leases had same money down and mileage specs....NX lease was less than the Rav4. So NX with far more features was less. Decision is (NX) more car for less money albeit previous generation hybrid technology or (Rav4) with fewer features but newer Hybrid Tech. Still trying to decide?????
NX if you’re a music lover. I’d also wait for serious offers when the new model shows up. They are already well discounted in Europe
5:38 did any notice he confused the turn signals and reverse lights on the RAV4?
🤔 You said more then the gas model I have a 2019 toyota rav4 le and horse power is 203....? Vs the lexus 194?
He meant the Lexus NX gas model has lot more horsepower than Rav4 gas model (235 vs 203)
Very detailed. Going with Rav4.
Then the Easy CORRECT Answer is the Wonderful 2021 Toyota Venza (LE or XLE or Limited). Easy Peasy.
What are those 2 blue colors called?
As a current Lexus driver, they really need an overhaul of their infotainment system. I feel they’ve been trying to compete with BMW too much and need to prioritize NVH which has suffered as wheels have gotten bigger, tires thinner, and belt lines higher.
between the two the rav4 because it looks much better, cargo space and mpg.
Did you take them for a bit of off roading? Why not?
My brother bought his 3rd Avalon vs Lexus. Save $18,000 so far.
The NX needs a redesign. As well as its infotainment.
A redesign is coming to the NX for 2021 . Should have new hybrid system along with Android auto.
Will the new Lexus be on the TNGA platform?
@@wyw201 yes. It should be . And it will be alot roomier than previous generation.
@@wyw201 it should release by end of year. With a reveal at the auto show.
@@scaldon2 do you mean end 2020 for the reveal ?
@@Kellric7 Maybe depending on coronavirus situation
