No talking, no babbling....just high quality binaural audio of the different noises and the silence of the 2024 Lexus TX 550h+. Grab your headphones. With 404 combined horsepower, 29 miles per gallon, and 33 miles of EV range, this big three row SUV has it all. But at this price it should.

Serious question - for a buyer, what value will this bring against Hyundai Santa Fe and or a top-of-the-line mini-van model other than it's a Luxury brand?
Thanks for watching and for the good question. The new Santa Fe is pretty good and probably as well equipped as the TX. Hyundai always provides good value as far as features are concerned. Not sure luxury brands provide value but Lexus does provide reliability and better value than say BMW or Mercedes. And luxury brands usually provide a better driving experience and more powerful engines. This Lexus is larger and more quiet and brand badge means a lot to some people. If one is not stretching their budget then of course the Lexus is just a more solid and better driving car. The TX350, which can be had in the low to mid-60s, is a little closer to compare against the Santa Fe, but probably has less features. Toyota’s version of the TX, the Grand Highlander, is more of a direct competitor to the Santa Fe and is quite good. Lexus provides higher quality materials, and more sound deadening and also has better reported dealer service. One area of concern I have with the Santa Fe is the dual clutch transmission. The hybrid option is pretty intriguing. So yes, the Lexus is just better in many ways but is it worth the extra money? That’s a tough one. But the Lexus will hold its value better and longer term will prove more stout. While I am a Hyundai and Kia fan, they do change their cutting edge styling quite often so long term graceful aging is a concern. Lexus is fairly conservative styling wise so they age quite well. Against a minivan? For people hauling and practicality they provide the best value. And they even come in all wheel drive but if you need to tow then an SUV is usually better. I always advise people to buy as much car as their budget comfortably allows while thinking long term, and they will always be satisfied. I would spring for the Lexus any day over a Hyundai, and many other brands, if it fits the budget.
@@BeyondTheTestDrive Thank you for the info! I have very limited experience with different vehicles compare to someone like you. So I'm stuck in that point of view and this insight of yours is far greater than I can imagine. Again, appreciate!
Love this format! Keep doing it for other cars please!!!

@@BeyondTheTestDrive Thank you! TBH, this "SOUNDS" series is very unique among all the youtube videos. Consider making SOUNDS the full review

great options, but $83K is hard to justify, nice it has a 3.6L v6 and 0-60 mph in 5.7 seconds
Yes. Quite pricey and they are still hard to get. Thanks for watching!
