Summary

Lexus launched the second-generation NX 350h in India in February 2022. This generation update has brought significant changes to the SUV in terms of exterior and interior design. It also comes with new features and a hybrid powertrain.

Exterior

The new-generation NX is bolder, more angular, and has grown in every dimension over its predecessor. Lexus has given it new slimmer LED headlights with integrated L-shaped DRLs, a larger spindle grille, new 20-inch alloy wheels, and new L-shaped taillights with an LED bar. 

Interior

The fresh interior has leather trim with a new steering wheel, a massive 14-inch infotainment touchscreen, a seven-inch instrument cluster, and a head-up display. Other features include an E-Latch system, 64 colours ambient lighting, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, power-adjustable front and rear seats, a panoramic sunroof, a 360-degree camera setup, and a 17-speaker Mark and Levinson surround sound system.

Engine and transmission

The NX is powered by a 2.5-litre, four-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol hybrid engine mated to an eCVT automatic transmission. The combustion engine generates 188bhp/239Nm, while the combined output of the hybrid powertrain is rated at 240bhp.
