Which TX is the BEST buy?
www.lexus.com/content/dam/lex...
Lexus has finally brought a huge family mover to the market in the name of TX. Here's my first hands on impressions of the much-needed behemoth.
A NEW ERA OF THREE-ROW LUXURY: THE FIRST-EVER LEXUS TX
• Spacious third-row legroom and generous cargo space of 20.1 cubic-feet behind the third row
• Two electrified powertrain options: a Plug-in Hybrid combined with a powerful V6 engine, and a
high-performance 2.4L turbocharged hybrid available exclusively as F SPORT Performance
• Enhanced Lexus Driving Signature fundamentals provide a smooth and exhilarating drive
• First Lexus vehicle to be assembled at Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Indiana
• Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 and Lexus Interface Multimedia System with standard 14-inch
touchscreen
• New Lexus Unified Spindle design prioritizes aerodynamic handling and vehicle stability
Passengers have grown accustomed to battling for the best seats. Lexus
ends that now with a new three-row vehicle, making every seat the best seat. Today, Lexus has ushered in
a new era of luxury with the global reveal of the first-ever TX, a vehicle made specifically for the North
American market.
With increasing demand for a three-row SUV that offers substantial space and seating, Lexus rose to the
challenge to round out its vehicle offerings and create a sense of luxury that will satisfy and delight the
diversifying needs of its guests.
“It’s only human to want the best seat in the house. And it’s only Lexus to make every seat the best seat,”
said Dejuan Ross, group vice president and general manager, Lexus Division. “This is a pivotal moment for
our brand, creating an elegant and indulgent vehicle experience for every single passenger. TX prioritizes
comfort in every row and embodies our steadfast commitment to electrification, technology, performance
and design.”
The 2024 Lexus TX provides a serene interior space with a comfortable, quiet in-cabin atmosphere,
confident driving, and a spacious luggage compartment - even at full occupancy. Through safety and
technology features and powerful performance from a diverse mix of powertrains, TX provides
excitement for the driver and an enjoyable ride for up to seven people.
Following the release of the NX, LX and RX, TX continues the next chapter of Lexus SUVs with evolved
Lexus Driving Signature fundamentals. TX has been specifically tuned to provide a smooth, yet
exhilarating drive, in every row, without compromising the luxury features Lexus guests enjoy.
TX will be exclusively assembled by Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Indiana (TMMI), and is the first Lexus
vehicle to be assembled there.

You have the best reviews / breakdowns. I love that you just speak like a normal dude and not like a salesperson
This car shows why we need a luxury Sienna. Hybrid standard, seats 7-8.
They should’ve made the third row a 3 seater like the grand highlander while keeping the second row in either bench or captains chair option, not sure who made this wise decision at Lexus
Wish the 500h could be had with the luxury trim and 7 seats.
Agreed! There's a lot of us that feel this way.
Going to get the TX for the wife and kids. I wish the front looked better though. GX is a home run considering the looks.
I have RX350L now.
TX550h+ sounds great as replacement, since I want to have heated and ventilated seats and also some kind of EV usage.
But, only 6 seats?
Sad.
Exactly - would it be so difficult for them to offer a 2nd-row bench seat as an option? (Or a 3-person 3rd row if that's what you need.) I can't buy this TX *or* the GH in their top trims with a 2nd-row bench seat. They're alienating everyone with a family of 5 😞(3 kids in the 2nd-row bench leaves all that cargo space with the 3rd row folded down for all our stuff when we take road trips.)
does it require premium fuel??
Kirk, I completely agree with you about the powertrains. I'm very interested in the Grand Highlander Hybrid, and would be interested in a TX inline-4/V6 non-plugin hybrid. I do think the TX 350 premium or TX500h F Sport Performance premium trims are currently the most attractive, especially with the limited supply and high price point of the TX 550h+.
Want to love the Lexus TX but just disappointed in some of the decisions that were made.
6 seats max on a hybrid. I thought they would at least opt for 7 seats
That removable cupholder in between the captain's chair could have been a removable seat like Pilot, MDX
There are some options like massaging seats that are missing from the TX but the GX has
Digital Rearview mirror is something I expected on lower trims but seems to be only part of the tech package on luxury trims
Parking sensors is a bummer for for a vehicle this big not to be standard
I can’t believe the TX doesn’t have massaging seats while MDX and QX60 have it since I always expect more from Lexus
@@chezzyperson3339well it’s Lexus. You can expect Toyota+ than true Lexus
@@chezzyperson3339 DEAR GOD. . PARKING SENSORS IS ONLY A ISSUE IN The BASE MODEL And REST OF Your COMMENT IS COMPLAINING WITHOUT REASON .
@@naveenthemachine JUST LIKE ALWAYS HERE COMES You WITH Your CRAZY COMMENTS .😂🤣. GET A LIFE BABO
@@naveenthemachine 😂 Dont TALK THINGS You Dont KNOW AFTER ALL You ARE JUST A TROLL. SO GET A LIFE And LOVED NEW TROLLING ACCOUNT NAMED AMERICA .😂
Dissapointed in the TX. For the amount of $$, and the fact that this is Lexus, I expected a lot more as standard. U just convinced me that Grand Highlander hybrid max is the better option for my money.
Not even the grand highlander is worth it. You’re better off with something else. MDX telluride palisade are the real deal
Forget a 3rd row!!! I wish they would do a 2nd row that would slide back for more leg room or slide forward for more cargo!!! 💯👍
No Massage Seats, No interior Ambient lighting like GLE?, No Triple Beam LED Headlights?
There was no point in introducing this vehicle if it wasn't going to offer at least 7 seats. I just came out of a porsche macan for a week and love the comfort even more in my 2022 RX f sport. Was really looking forward to a 7 seater RX with power but going to make me compromise I guess. Let down
I agree...7 seats is table stakes for an SUV of this size. I will look elsewhere.
So true. Off the bench seat as an optional "downgrade" and make all of us happy! Or do like the MDX/Pilot and have a 3-seat 2nd row with the middle seat that can be removed. So why don't I buy the MDX/Pilot? I want a luxury vehicle that's the size of the Pilot with a 3-seat 2nd row. Simple enough and there's enough of us commenting on this (sure, we're in the minority) that I'm surprised Lexus (and Toyota GH) aren't willing to accommodate us.
I feel like they wasted the potential of this car. 6 seats being the max on 2 of the 3 trims is a big let down. To get more power and efficiency, seating has to be compromised on this car.
7 seats is good and 8 seats is even better. The grand highlander can have 8 so if the TX is really supposed to be the more luxurious version, it should have 8 too.
Also, the grand highlander's interior looks kinda cheap, this could've been an alternative.
There aren't many SUV's that can reasonably fit 8 people from toyota/lexus, and honda/acura while not compromising on cargo capacity.
If you want to seat 7 or 8 and not compromise on cargo you buy a minivan. Plain and simple
@@naveenthemachineThat's not plain and simple. Ignorant comment. Many people with large families prefer a luxury suv over a minivan. Your lack of life experience is showing.
@@naveenthemachine Except when you don't like minivans... I totally get what you're saying but there's no luxury minivans (that I'm aware of.) Would it have killed Lexus (and Toyota) to offer a 2nd row bench seat as an option in the top trims? This leaves me to buy the '23 Pilot or the '23/'24 MDX, but, the MDX is too small and the Pilot is of course not a luxury vehicle, which I want. And I don't want a German money pit (I keep my cars for a long time and I don't want to become best friends with our local German car mechanic.) Frankly I'm not surprised about Lexus/Toyota's choice here since this is how it's always been, I just thought that *maybe*, just *maybe*, they'd look at what Honda/Acura does in the Pilot/MDX, or simpler yet, just offer the option of the bench seat. I'm fine with the 3rd row only having 2 spots for butts, since the 3-seat 3rd row in the GH is a bit of a joke (as is any unibody 3rd row seat with spots for 3 people.)
@@jsfbay1 the pilot elite and even a sienna platinum do a decent job of being close to luxury
@@naveenthemachine I have yet to see the Pilot Elite in person so I can't really comment. Once dealers have enough stock to keep one as a demo, I'll go check it out. Regardless, my simple suggestion (optional bench) is clearly the easiest solution for Lexus to not lose loyal customers over something so basic.
Hi Kirk!
GFP!!!… great, fantastic, phenomenal video!🇯🇵❤️🤍
For my current lifestyle and location, the TX Hybrid+ is the best option. 33 Miles for a island State is more than enough to almost make the TXH+ a full time EV. As for the options, good to have but no necessary. I have a 2006 GX and I used the power outlet in the back 2-3 times during the life of the car. Will never use the cold area package. Convince Package is mainly a subscription base package. Technology package is most likely the only worthwhile package. Lastly, I am not so keen that it will be built in the U.S. The U.S. line worker work ethic compared to the Japanese line worker is very different. Especially with the new trend in the U.S. with “quiet quitting”.
I'm concerned about the TX (and GH) being built in the U.S. too. See AutomotivePress channel where David has a number of videos comparing vehicles made in the U.S. vs Japan. I highly recommend his channel.
@@jsfbay1RX NX ES has been phenomenal being built in North America, so I hope they can do the same with the TX/GH
@@jsfbay1 You watch him too. Watching his videos makes me want to buy one of those gap measure device to take to my next car purchase.
What happened to Lexus Teammate Advanced Drive? Was hoping that the new RX, TX, GX, and LX would have it by now. GM Super Cruise is getting a pretty big jump ahead. My neighbors Cadillac Escalade w/ Super Cruise performs as advertised. Just curious if anyone has heard any news on Lexus rolling out Teammate on more models? Looking to upgrade and upsize my RX soon, but was hoping for some level of minimal self driving for longer hauls. Great channel Kirk... been enjoying it for awhile now. Take care folks and be safe!!!
probably waiting for EV or revamped EV! Lexus doesn't have anything super super advanced yet unfortunately
how does the Hybrid MAX PLATINUM!!!! have second row heated and ventilated seats..... but the 350 and 500h Luxury trims don't even have that as an OPTION!!!!! WHAT LEXUS?!?!??! This gotta be a typo!!! I have them on my RX500h Fsport level 3 and LOVE THEM! friends and family love them!
hey Kirk, can you do a video about different trims of Toyota Grand Highlander, debating between Hybrid XLE vs Limited
I am quite disappointed by the lack of middle row bench seats on top trim SUVs these days, this new TX especially the PHEV is no exception. I give the Honda Pilot a very high score in this regard with its flexible and removable middle row middle seats. Too bad the brand is not big on hybrid/PHEV powertrain.....
Agree 100%. With a family of 5, we want everyone in the first 2 rows, leaving all the cargo space that is available with the 3rd row folded down. Just offer that 2nd-row bench as an option! Not that hard!
Does anyone know if the F-sport version is gonna come out with that black sporty grill that we see on the RX F-sport?
The Lexus showcased on launch was a fsport model in incognito. The front is different than the current RX
To this day and I don’t know why, but Lexus Canada does it very differently. Majority of these options, if not almost all, come standard in Canadian models, even the parking sensors on the absolute base model. Hence the reason I am not complaining. I’m not sure how American dealers do it, but I mean over here in Canada, and I’m using the Highlander as an example, but majority of them are 7-passenger. Hence another reason I am not really complaining about the 6-passenger configuration as I’m sure it will sell well too.
Wow, the 2024 Lexus TX looks absolutely stunning!
EXCELLENT video!! I'm in the market and nothing has helped as much as what you showed. Until your video, I was under the impression that the 500h Luxury F Sport Performance Luxury didn't have a panorama glass roof but it does...it's the PHEV that doesn't have it. I might have passed on this vehicle had I not watched your video. Can't thank you enough.
The fact that they did not make the base model a hybrid was a miss
its intentional
TX with 6 passenger is really a miss for most of us. Going to go with Grand Highlander with 7 passenger seating, that 1 extra person means we do not have to take another vehicle in 99% of the cases.
Absolutely correct for my family too. Does Toyota/Lexus not realize that some of us might have more than 4 people we want to move around (and need all the cargo space available with the 3rd row folded down)??
That's why I'm considering the GX as well the Land cruiser. Land Cruiser might win with it's 5 seater and very large cargo area. I also like the turbo 4 hybrid for power and mpg.
I'm quite interested in both of those too (though to be honest, the Land Cruiser is closer to fitting my budget than the GX) so I would love to hear some specs on the Land Cruiser, especially cargo space! And not just cubic feet, I want to know what the distance is between the back of the 2nd row seat to the inside of the rear hatch door, because I rarely load cargo over the height of the 2nd row seats for safety reasons.@@TuanNguyen-ld8kl
So can I buy a hybrid max powertrain with a 2nd-row bench seat? I didn't see how to do it but I'm hoping it's possible. Somehow...?
We need a buying guide series for other cars too.
Did they miss the mark by not having a caramel color interior? Seems odd.
The hybrid is eligible for the $7500 IRÁ right? If yes then I expect more people to go that route over straight gas model.
You are 100% correct on the 6 passenger Hybrid- I'm totally disappointed they choked there.
Interested in TX550h but having just 6 seat option in a 3 row SUV is a bummer. I would have been sold if there was a 7 seat option in 550h but now I have to think.
We'll be crossing shopping this with the Grand Highlander. I was thinking the base 350 would be fine but after watching this video I do agree that the Premium is the better buy. Hopefully the prices are close to what you predict so it'll be in line with the GH prices for the most part. I think the Lexus overall looks a little nicer than the GH so it could be worth it if it's not too much more expensive. I'll be most interested in a 350 Premium in white or red.
tx 350 does it require premium fuel?? how many adjustments for front passenger seat??
Must been the Battery space to cut down the seat
I like that it only has 6/7 seats. It’s a luxury SUV where EVERYONE is expecting to be comfortable no matter where you’re sitting. If you want more seats get the GH or even the Sienna if it’s that big of a deal. Disappointing that only the plug in hybrid gets heated and cooled rear seats🫤 right.. they could’ve brought over the standard V6 hybrid w the ECVT. If you’re bringing back the V6 might as well bring it back in the full package.
Escalade, QX80, Grand Wagoneer, and Navigator are the only luxury SUVs that can seat 8 people
I agree in the passenger configuration. Where I am, majority of mid-size vehicles end up selling as a 7-passenger, or at times now a 6-passenger.
The problem is this is supposed to be the more luxurious version of the Grand Highlander and it doesn't have the same number of seats. The Grand Highlander has a boring interior and it looks cheap from the inside.
Also, some people prefer an SUV over a van and would like the option to have the same number of seats while it being an SUV as well.
@@lol-ly4su the XC90 recharge and Aviator Grand Touring are smaller yet they offer 7 seats
@@lol-ly4su it’s a people hauler… family hauler at best….. I don’t think you want to worry about a luxury interior if you got kids literally going in and out
I completely agree that not offering 7 seats in the PHEV is a showstopper for me. I am really interested in a PHEV but may need to look at other manufacturers.
The mazda cx90 phev seats up to 8 in some trims
Yeah the CX90 looks nice but I wish it had a bit more interior space. I want a usable third row and do not want to get another full size SUV.
@@shararihamideh1608 Good suggestion but way smaller inside than this TX.
Kirk, please help me, I'm on the edge of going insane trying to find an SUV to buy.
Is there a trim level that has the 2nd row bench seat and also 4-way lumbar driver's seat (and hopefully the passenger seat too)? I assume it would have to be a 350 Premium because the Luxury trim seems to already have required captain's chairs. But I'm afraid that 4-way lumbar may require the Luxury trim. Please, I ask again, help me! I see in the configurator that a bench seat is supposedly available even in the 350 Luxury trim. But does that get me 4-way lumbar? I sure hope so.
What would be extra cool would be the 3.4TT V6 in this! I doubt any longitudinal transmission could take the torque of this, but I can dream :-)
Personally, I prefer the captain chairs with the 2nd row for comfort and better access to the 3rd row. Especially with my family with 2 car seats.
Can you talk more about the V6 engine and transmission used on the top trim?
What is the TX 550h+ towing capacity?
Torn between the F-Sport and PHEV. Currently have an RX350 and it is just not large enough. I don't care about seating I am more interested in cargo space.
The fact that there is no 7 seats standard is a HUGE miss.
Most ppl want the middle row to be captains chairs anyway so I’m not having 8 seats is fine, but 7 seats needs to be an option. having a rear bench seat will not affect the car in no type of way I just feel Lexus is trying to find a way to have people opt in for the non-hybrid because it will have more seats.
Maybe it's most people by the numbers, but there are quite a few people who have posted in this video that want a 2nd-row bench seat. With a family of 5 (or a family of 4 and a friend), we want to put everyone in the first 2 rows, leaving all that cargo space that is available with the 3rd row folded down. All I'm asking is that Lexus and Toyota offer the bench 2nd row as an *option*. I'm sure it won't sell as well as the versions with captain's chairs, but there is clearly a market for what I'm asking for, just based on this one video.
I am very disappointed I was hoping atleast a 7 seater on higher trim ... I was hoping 2 2 3 seating on higher trim atleast and 8 seater option would been great.
Two questions kirk,
Does lexus tx comes with triple beam head lights? I am not digging the front end yet, looks like Subaru to me, does it really looks like Subaru or not ?
No and no.
Lexus brochures have a lot of inaccuracies and omissions based on my experience with then over the years. Toyota brochures are way more accurate for some reason. That said, I suspect there will be ventilation for the rear seats on TX Luxury grades for 350 or at least on 500h because Toyota Jeff’s video of the TX 500h showed buttons for rear heated and ventilated seats.
Will the 550h+ be built in Japan?
Like their other plug-ins.
No. Indiana
@@KirkKreifels that's unfortunate... based on experience, the Japanese-built cars are superior to the ones built in America
Any confidence in this Indiana plant to produce cars with perfect fit and finish, etc?
Definitely sounds like the 350 premium for me even tho I don’t want to lose a seat and I’m not getting a car without captain chairs
Maybe when it comes out next year they will have the bench option in 2 nd row they would sell more, they are excluding a large share of the segment.
Isn’t the engine on the plug in Tx the same as the 2022 rx450H L ?
Yes.
This means it’s going to be very slow for the class 😂
If the rx450hL does 0-60 in 8 seconds, and the tx550h uses the same v6 hybrid it’ll be even slower. But the bigger battery will improve it but it’ll be very heavy. 0-60 for the tx550h+ will be 7 seconds…
Absolutely pathetic performance 😂
The xc90 Aviator PHEV grand Cherokee 4xe are all laughing
I'm old enough to be practical minded and realize that such a dream is likely impossible. But here it goes anyway. I wonder if there could be a business model for developing a center seat between the captains chairs, complete with seatbelts of course. It would be skinny, but I'd pay a grand or two so that I could have the 500 Fsport. I don't know, but this product would likely have to be tested by some gov't agency for crash worthiness? Do you know just how wide is that center pass-through area between the captains chairs?
I hate when I see highlanders when fully packed with their rear suspension sagging. I wish they had SLS for the rear for the RX550h+.
Lexus not offering 7 seats (a 2nd row bench seat option) on the v6 550h version of their LARGEST vehicle is a huge mistake. There are lots of families who need 7 seats and also want the luxury and the v6 hybrid!
I was going to buy this until learning about the 550h only coming with 6 seats. Who are the incompetent people at Lexus making these short-sighted decisions? I repeat; this is the absolute largest vehicle that Lexus makes and it's being marketed directly to families. So a seating for 7 option on all models should be a no-brainer. Lexus is going downhill fast.
People who are going to buy the tx550 dont care about 7 seats instead they want maximum luxury features and comfort after all its the top trim. they are other trim levels that comes with 7 seats. Lexus is not going Downhill so be real
@@mylifeislegendary942Congratulations on finally finding your caps lock button.
You're wrong. I was going to buy the 550h until learning about it only coming with 6 seats. I need the 7 seats and I also want the luxury and 6cyl hybrid option.

@@nateg2468 I Know were the caps button its just easy and people here love to tell others how to write and live. 😂
For 550h+ need at least 7 seats. Captain chairs alone make it SIGNIFICANTLY less appealing for daily or travel family use. For me a no go vs other options if heated and ventilated (ideally) second row 3 seat bench options is not offered. Would be unbeatable if third row is enabled for 3 seats
Currently looking for a 3-row vehicle, torn between this vs yukon denali , i know they are entirely different vehicles truck vs unibody. I have no need for towing maybe some ligh off-roading here and there. Lexus tx sounds like the sensible choice but then I don’t know, the 4cylinder for such a big vehicle, when fully loaded it may be underpowered. I think luxury vehicles should at least have a v6 for a better driving experience.
You're right. This huge vehicle should not come with a 4 cylinder. Minimum should be 6 cylinder. I was going to buy this in the 6 cylinder 550h+ option, but not anymore because that model only offers 6 seats. Huge fail by Lexus.
@@nateg2468 vehicle of this size does not need a v6 at all when this is 2023 not 1960 . Get with the times or dont post ignorant comments
@@mylifeislegendary942 well my wife currently owns the lexus rx350 2021 with the v6, I got to drive the current rx 350 with the 4cylinder powertrain for a few days, its pretty good as long as you have 2-3 passengers. Actually you can certainly feel the torque may be better then the older gen. However if you have 4 passengers+ luggage in that car you can feel a slight difference in power, specially on an incline, vs the older v6(at least i felt it). With this tx we are looking at 5 passengers and for grand highlander upto 7 passengers + luggage, lets hope they don’t feel underpowered.
@@dochue new engines will be more than fine
Get the Yukon. It’s far better than this TX
It's a shame doesn't have a hybrid that gets the 35mpg range.
Having massaging seats would've helped made this a bit more compelling than the Grand Highlander.
Price will start from 60K
All of a sudden the Cadillac xt6 looks a better buy
Hi Kirk, great review for the trim and I was waiting for that. I think the focus here is to distinguish TX from Grand Highlander. Lexus has a focus on comfort and luxury feel and not conveying a bunch of people. If you need people mover go for GH and luxury and comfort focus TX and I love that so that Gh and TX can share the market. I believe large families will go for GH. Great review always the best ❤
Agreed
While I get that GH is a people mover, I was just hoping the TX would have at least 7 seats.

Too bad there’s no Nori Green
So the only color is Matador Red… everything else is a non-color
Merci!
Thank you!!!
Lexus and there PACKAGES! no more standard! because how can they truly differentiate themselves from Toyota.... want Lexus TOP TIER! gotta pay UP!!!! because LEXUS Service center is better too! I have a fully loaded Rx500h aka level sport 3 :) and it was well worth the 8+ month!
I have no idea why anyone would even consider a LEXUS TX when the grand highlander is the best bang for your buck.... to be honest! especially if this is a FAMILY HAULER......... nah! those kids aren't about to ruin the interior of the Lexus TX
Finally the INFINITI QX60 has a worthy competitor
The qx60 is way better than this
A lot of the information here didn't age well. You can get a TX 350 premium with heated and ventilated 2nd row captains seats. Not just reserved for the 550h+.

The fact that they missed the opportunity to make this 7-8seaters is sad. Especially in the Hybrid versions. I drive a 2022 5seaters Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid Limited SUV now. Was considering this as the next car thinking it was a 7/8 seater. Was looking for an SUV that if my parents visit, I can have grandpa and grandma in the same car, without taking the second car on a trip with the kids.. 6 seaters does not work for me unfortunately. I'll pass!
Yup it’s a let down. I want ultimate efficiency. I personally don’t want to drive fast. I wish they offered a regular hybrid without going into the 60k range.
Agreed. I knew the tx was gonna be a huge disappointment. 😁.

@@naveenthemachine 😂. People dont care about a heated 3rd row and silly stuff. Overall tx has lots of features luxury space performance and more. So for the love of sarasawati just shut up
@@naveenthemachine No one wants you here anymore
phev HANDS DOWN.
Why did lexus use that CVT in that Tx instead of an 8 or 10 speed tranny!!!. They had me up until then.
I rather have the Grand Highlander for cheaper or just get the Sienna for people/cargo hauling. Lexus TX isn't luxurious enough and doesn't have enough features for the price. I feel like all the efforts went into the GX 550 and the TX is just rebadge Grand Highlander and being worse while lacking features on the lower/higher trims.
GX should be less luxurious than TX
@@chezzyperson3339 but now we know why the GX has more luxury features than the TX even though in terms of length, it's the biggest SUV Lexus offers
Will the Plug-in Hybrid Lexus TX550H+ qualify for the full $7500 EV credit?
Nope
@@KirkKreifels How about half of it since it's made in the USA?
TX - meh GX - oh crap
Plug in or hybrid only for 7passengers means I am getting Mazda CX90. Give me a bench in the front or back on the plug in and take my $$$ TX. Thanks for the video- clear concise with no extra overacting adolescent BS from grown men lol…
Toyota Logic: People LOVE the mustard yellow color on the Prius. Let’s not offer it in the US.
I'm glad Acura gives you 3/4 grades, and the higher you go, the higher the trim you choose. You get all the premium options standard. Lexus is absolutely trying to align themselves with the Germans in charging for every little thing, and its very unfortunate...
And it still cannot compete with the Germans overall and this suv isn’t even out yet
@@naveenthemachine I agree I'd still take a fully loaded MDX over this.
@@Coupe-sy9nk I’d take a gv80 MDX or palisade calligraphy over the tx
@@naveenthemachine TX HAS NO PROBLEM COMPETING AGAINST The GERMANS . SO NAVEENTHEMACHINE STOP TROLLING
@@MYLIFEISLEGENDARYMYLIFE836 yeah it does. It can’t compete in styling, interior refinement, tech, luxury, performance handling comfort etc
It just can’t.
I know this is supposed to be a more luxurious option compared to the GH and that a majority large families will go for the latter, but if it’s just the slightest bit too pricey… what’s the point of this car?
I mean it has less physical buttons than the GH…
Hopefully the ride is better enough compared to the GH
It won’t ride better than the GH. It’ll ride the same but cost significantly more. Even though it offers adaptive dampers
@@naveenthemachine 🤣STOP POSTING CRAZY COMMENTS And You ARE A PROVEN KOREAN FAN BOY SO FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP TROLLING You USELESS PERSON WHO Dont KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CARS.🤦
It’s crazy not have 7 seater available on the other 2 models and personal I was looking at the 550h+. Why would I trade in my rx350 for 1 extra seat .
80k+ for a worse looking grand highlander is hilarious.
Well it’s 80k for a grand highlander with no luxury features or opulence
@@naveenthemachine KOREAN FAN BOY And TROLL SHUT UP
Is the TX a better buy as a CX-90? 😅
No it’s not😂. A cx90 is infinitely better
@@naveenthemachine 🤣 Cx90 is a joke compared to tx in everyway .🤣. Tx even as a v6 phev 🤣.so naveenthemachine dont post bullshit comments .
@@MYLIFEISLEGENDARY83661the cx90 has an inline 6 and it’s RWD based. And the interior is nicer than the tx
Try again lol
@@naveenthemachine thanks 👍
@@MYLIFEISLEGENDARY83661 thanks 👍
Toyota/Lexus always botch the higher trims. People with large families apparently don't get the choice to buy a top of the line model. They need to change this. 6 seats on a large vehicle is ridiculous!
There was a time where Toyota offered 8 seats and the platinum trim
ICYDK the 2017 highlander refresh
@@naveenthemachine Had a 2017 Limited with 8 seats but when I traded that in for 2021 Platinum for the Pano, Heated Steering wheel, etc I was knocked down to 7.
@@carloss3577 the 2017 limited platinum offered 8 seats and the pano roof
I'm not understanding Lexus how do you bring out a big suv at this price but offer no wood option won't plastic me to death for that kinda money!!!! Bad decision Lexus 👎👎👍
I really don't know what's wrong with Lexus and their abysmal choice of interior colors...black, off-white and peppercorn, which is some kind of an ugly version of what? brown? extreme dark red? What about saddle tan? What about rioja red? What about toasted caramel? What are they smoking over there??? Toyota Grand Highlander has a beautiful brown interior and Lexus TX, which will cost more is limited to this??? Someone needs to shake someone pretty hard at Lexus corporate and beat some common sense into that person. Needless to say we will wait until they add more interior colors to the TX. Just shaking my head over here in disbelief...and no ventilated middle seats option even on the luxury trim??? Let me stop right here...
Lexus Texas? 🤨
😂😂😂
This is indeed A-Lexus Texas
Alexis Texas?
Even after waiting for trim levels and options, the tx is still such a letdown 😁
I knew this was gonna happen.
Naveenthemachine Listen to you on what . Your endless amount of trolling lies and misinformation 😂. Listen naveenthemachine you know nothing about cars so just shut up and log off
@@MYLIFEISLEGENDARY83661wrong
All of you told me all the negatives of the grand highlander would be addressed in the tx. But clearly that didn’t happen 😂
😂Leave it to Naveen to Judge a car that hasn't even come out yet. It's going to sell way better than your expectations. Your just into "visually appealing only" vehicles and sadly for you lexus ain't that.
@@naveenthemachine WRONG . THERE WAS NOTHING ADDRESS ABOUT THE GH. ITS A CLASS LEADER IN ITS SEGMENT And TX IS MILES DIFFERENT And Better . Your VIEWS NAVEEN Dont REALLY MATTER .ITS NOT LIKE You CARE ABOUT FACTS 😂

A huge miss by Lexus
Beyond awful the design of this lexus, sorry, after the brilliant Lbx and Gx, Lexus had no ideas left with the TX....
Lexus tx is a excellent luxury suv and better than gv80 or whatever . Yes the tx is not cool looking as the gx but that is obvious since their are bulid for different segments
@@mylifeislegendary942 few years ago they had a brilliant superb big suv concept......
