I bought a 2021 NX 300 for its reliability history. I knew the style would change in 2022, but those new 2022 models will be built in Canada, not Japan like the 2021 and prior, so reliability is to be seen. Sometimes new it’s not always better, at least that’s my opinion.
@@blexy350 You’re welcome man. Yes all 2022 Lexus NX will be built in Canada from now on, along side the current Lexus RX. That’s why I’ll be holding off a year or two to see how they do with reliability.
That center console removable mirror would serve me well. I can take it inside restaurant rest rooms for example and check the bald spot on the back of my head to make sure it is covered. :-)
the only one thing i dislike this car is about audio system and noise, over 60 miles on highway, i can't really hear the voice sound, lexus is not quiet car any more well, at least this car.
Great looking car - think I like it’s RX350 bigger brother better - but a whole lot of luxury in this one for the price; Lexus is a class act. You guys do great work - thanks!
So surprised about it not having a touchscreen when my 2015 Corolla has one. At any rate I will be purchasing an NX in a few months and appreciate the review.
Howdy, great review as always y’all! I definitely think for a 6 year old design, it has aged very well both inside and out. In fact, if they added rear seat USB ports and the ability to get heated rear seats, updated some of the technology, mainly the IFE, and started using the 8 speed auto, it’d be very up to date, which really shows how solid of a design it was. The space, which since it came out has been this biggest issue IMO, is definitely something I hope they improve on next year. My advice would be, wait until next year, unless you can get a crazy good deal on one of these, in which case, go ahead and buy it!😸😸
Photos of the new 2022 were leaked abroad this morning! (you can find it on YT).. Exterior looks similar, but different (tail lights go the width of the car), interior looks much improved (and pleasantly different). Unknown what the engine will be.
Only thing that I can’t stand, are touchpad controls. Had planned to look into buying an RC350, but now looking to combine vehicles. I didn’t like the touchpad on the coupe either.
Love the looks! I've owned a couple of Lexus' for the past few years, first a 2017 IS200t F-Sport & currently a 2016 GS350 F-Sport both very reliable vehicles as expected & I would for sure go for a NX if I were to buy a crossover (which I may in the future) which would be a huge change for me as I've purchased five vehicles so far & they've all been sedans.
I have this car in 2020. Love it. I would love to have both options of touch screen, but I have to say loving not seeing all those fingerprints all over the screen. I love Lexus and will keep this one, but I think I am going to go BMW or Rover next year.
@@tremiller7922 thats what I just said. Lexus didn’t start adding CarPlay until 2019. The first car to have it was the UX I believe and then the ES, and other models followed after that.
Nice updates impressive interior love the design.. One question though I can't tell which one is Drew and which is Mason.. Is the one always doing the driving segment Drew? The bloke with beard.. I love this channels keep up the good workd lads.. Cheers
If the rumors eventually turn to truth I think a lot of car fans will be eager to see what Lexus vehicles will look like next year or whenever they'll be redesigned.
I think Lexus was wise to add more standard content and Lexus always has great quality. But I am perplexed on why they offer such a lackluster 2.0T? It is not very refined nor does it perform well. It may be appropriate in a RAV4, but not a luxury product. An Acura RDX and forthcoming GV70 shame this thing. And I don't hold out to much hope for Lexus to rectify my chief concerns with the new model because they don't develop powertrains often at all. Hopefully it won't have a poorly geared 6 speed automatic on next gen, at the very least.
I absolutely hate this grill on the front end! I was so sad their sticking with this ugly design. I’ve driven a 1997 LS 400 Lexus till just last year and needed to retire Pearl (the car). Now ready for a new car? Lexus wasn’t e en in the running, I purchased a 2020 Lincoln Aviator, black on black fully Loaded. I still needed that wide body that the Lexus had. I made a perfect choice on the new one!
Nice rear (the Lexus). The memory seating controls look like an afterthought. What’s with Lexus and their obsession with cocaine mirrors in their vehicles?
@@bradleyscarreviews the GV80 is not a good handling vehicle with focus on ride quality and softeners. Sew Tiger Woods driving results when driven fast. The 2021 Envision on the scene none of thr Japanese are in the picture anymore. This 2021 looks the part and smokes the Acura RDX in 30-50 mph, 50-70 mph and best the 60-0 mph stopping 15-feet shorter in Car & Driver testing. Such good price too!

@@r.m.s.605 Good point. Hopefully it does not have a negative impact on the build quality. Super excited for the 2022 model.
@@blexy350 For sure, hopefully it still keeps its top notch quality from the previous years. But only time will tell ..
@@r.m.s.605 A family member of mine has an older RX350, that still runs beautifully. I think Lexus is the only brand I’d buy used with higher mileage.

The new Lexus teaser looks so good, and it looks like it has an easy to use infotainment screen so that’s awesome

Nice review.. but that didn't answer the question in the title of the video whether to buy or wait for the new one..
Bought one 2021 NX300 FSport fully loaded birds-eye for 43k otd.
But the new redesign coming out sometime end of this year
Good price. They are offering the 2021 F Sport no less than $50K in my area due to low inventory.
So surprised about it not having a touchscreen when my 2015 Corolla has one. At any rate I will be purchasing an NX in a few months and appreciate the review.
My mom has this car in white!! And a 2019!!! Love it!!!
That’s a beautiful vehicle
@@ATH-camChannelwithNoName thanks! She has white with the red interior f sport

at least the engine should be on par with Rav4 Hybrid Prime
I love your videos so much they bring me so much joy keep up the good work
Thanks, Jalin!
I love the 2021 Lexus NX 300 F- sport, it’s very nice and great price! I can’t wait for the 2022 model!
Only thing that I can’t stand, are touchpad controls. Had planned to look into buying an RC350, but now looking to combine vehicles. I didn’t like the touchpad on the coupe either.
I’d rather wait for the new one to go on sale it looks better inside and probably has a updated infotainment
I'm going to wait for the redesign. The current gen's interior looks straight out of the 2000s, the leaked redesign looks way more nicer.
Precisely!!
Amazing video of the Lexus NX!! You guys are the best!!
Thanks a ton!
Any distinctive feature that has got pros and cons needs to be assessed repeatedly to represent the brand on.
Howdy, I love Lexus, and I'm a fan of these outdated CDs, thank heavens, LEXUS honors this.
Based on the new leaks, definitely skip on this one and get the new one!

My moms is only missing carplay somehow, triple beam headlight, and heated rear seats
Would you consider this a “mom” car?
@@ATH-camChannelwithNoName no, I’m just talking about her Car
Older models before 2019 or whatever year/date did not have Apple CarPlay. Lexus just recently started putting Apple CarPlay in their cars.
@@stefanb.5154 got a 2019 and have car play
@@tremiller7922 thats what I just said. Lexus didn’t start adding CarPlay until 2019. The first car to have it was the UX I believe and then the ES, and other models followed after that.
even though its still like 6 years old its the best
Actually it’s the worst car in the segment. Cars like the GLC, X3 and upcoming GV70 are way better
@@kristians2704 it’s the best in reliability but their rivals are better in the rest
@@kristians2704 i mean like its age
You picked a tough day to do this review. The new one just broke cover. It's a massive improvement over this. So people should most definitely WAIT.
Nice updates impressive interior love the design.. One question though I can't tell which one is Drew and which is Mason.. Is the one always doing the driving segment Drew? The bloke with beard.. I love this channels keep up the good workd lads.. Cheers
Thanks haha... Drew=beard/usually driving 😁
Wow the lexus Nx is amazing good job guys
I thought you were going to compare it to the 2022? Buy now or wait?
It wasn't out at the time of this video so we were just speculating
You guys are awesome out there.
The way you present is unique 😃
Much obliged!!🤗
😁
@@CarConfections You guys have swag
Wait for the New NX
Tbh i prefer the rdx, which i own. Cuz it has a touchscreen and its quicker with better power numbers and almost the same fuel economy.
Thank you so much the review very useful ,
My favorite brand and Suv.
Anyone know when we can buy the 22 model?
Imo rav4, venza are what the Lexus nx should have been
Genesis GV70 and Mercedes GLC is what Lexus should be
@@kristians2704 so why Lexus when I can just get a Toyota that’s similar in luxury and save the cash?
@@naveenthemachine yeah def go for the Toyota. I’m just saying that Lexus should look at brands like Mercedes to create a good car
@@naveenthemachine gv70 and GLC are good deals if you want real luxury but Toyota indeed is promising
@@kristians2704 yeah. I own the new Camry and I keep saying this feels Lexus like in features and v6 smoothness
If the rumors eventually turn to truth I think a lot of car fans will be eager to see what Lexus vehicles will look like next year or whenever they'll be redesigned.
Crazy how this NX has less power than the Mazda CX 5 with the turbo that goes to 320lb Torque!
Just in time as the 2022 NX has leaked.
Does it come with 360 Panoramic Camera as standard in F Sport?
It’s a option

Wait unless you like driving an antique (it’s a 20 year old platform).
Transmission CVT? or what?
I’d wait. The infotainment isn’t great to use.
But how much hp does it have?
is it include apple CarPlay？
Yes
Wait for the 2022 🗓

WAIT !! ...for the NEW 2022 NX ...or better buy a used RX !
Nice rear (the Lexus). The memory seating controls look like an afterthought. What’s with Lexus and their obsession with cocaine mirrors in their vehicles?
They have those mirrors so you can have fun 🤪🤪🤪
Lexus needs to fix that ugly front grill. Wouldn't mind buying a Lexus but the grill kills it for me. A big turn off.
$46k ? That’s crazy.
Premium gas ..... 😮💨
Nobody should get this car in 2021. Either wait for the new one or buy something else
Yea it doesn’t seem like a 2021 car to me too I’d wait for the redesigned one to go on sale
This sucks. RDX is so much better especially the gv70.
@Anna Carson what does Hyundai have to do with this?
@Anna Carson I’m confused?
No one is buying a genesis. Also they are redesigning for 2022 looks way better
