2022 Lexus NX 350h Review : 7 Pros & 7 Cons

The second generation NX uses the Global Architecture–K or “GA-K” platform, which is a newer and modern platform designed for use in mid-size luxury vehicles. It shares the same base as the ES, but features a strengthened engine subframe, stronger B-pillar & improved engine bay beams.

Lexus NX 350h Pros

• Larger than outgoing car. Looks handsome from most angles - more European than Japanese
• A lot of technology and equipment are standard, even on the base model. Many features from a segment higher
• Brisk performance, linear power delivery and good fuel economy
• Class-leading suspension provides a great combination of ride and handling
• Five-star Euro NCAP safety rating and long list of safety features
• Epitome of reliability. Will almost certainly trump its European rivals
• Audiophile-grade Mark Levinson sound system

Lexus NX 350h Cons

• Only one powertrain option available. No Plug-In Hybrid for India
• 20" wheels with run flat tyres and no spare. Can be a problem given our road conditions
• Expensive compared to the outgoing model
• Missing features such as massaging seats, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, etc.
• Four-seater at best. Five adults will find the interior space tight
• Long overhangs limit off-road capability
• Limited sales and service points. Only four dealers across India at present
