Lexus NX 350h Hybrid

Was helping a friend to look at Lexus RX in the showroom but stumbled upon the mid sized NX instead.

Exterior is a older designed front, where designers in Lexus are ditching the large mouth look for a more calm look that appears in LBX and perhaps later to NX and others.

Interior is also redesigned with consistency in mind that all models comes with the large screen display, separated to the usual speedometers. This design is more practical to a certain extent especially in the hot weather of our country.

Many safety features are consistently equipped in Lexus across all models which is good and will have no variation when consumers come to safety gadets in mind.

Also, the new door handles appearing is a good one over the conventional pull out door. Instead is a push in effect and comes with safety exit feature too, whereby when you intend to exit, any objects by yoru way will prevent you from doing so. GOOD ONE Lexus.

The drive off is a smooth one but if you accidentally throttle hard, its kind of loud.

Driving is ok except that overtaking can be shortfall, perhaps with turbo is better. Hybrids are meant for long cruising than of dashing purposes.

Overall, its good to consider besides its a 2.5L that can be thirsty on fuel and road tax.

This is a new NX for a new era from Lexus. Smart, quiet, cosy on the inside and oh so quiet if driven carefully. It's a great SUV for the whole family.

The new Lexus Nx is now quite the looker, with sharp new headlights instead of the old model's split arrangement, and a nice full-width taillight arrangement at the rear.
