The Lexus NX moved into the compact SUV space and was completely redesigned in 2022. Whereas the NX 300 used a turbocharged 2.0L, four-cylinder engine pushing 235 horsepower, the newer 350h gained a D4-S fuel injection 2.5L 4-cylinder gasoline engine with two high-torque electric drive motor-generators—putting down 239-hp while offering around an estimated 36 mpg, according to Lexus.
NX 350:
In 2024, the NX 350 achieved heightened performance with the 2.4L turbo engine, benefiting from a lower center of gravity and improved vehicle dynamics. Its eight-speed transmission complements the luxury crossover’s robust 275 horsepower and 317 lb. ft. of torque, resulting in a 0-60 time of 6.6 seconds and an EPA-estimated 24 MPG combined.
NX 350h:
The Lexus NX 350h enhances power and fuel efficiency within the hybrid lineup. Featuring the Lexus Hybrid Drive system, it combines a D4-S fuel-injected 2.5L, 4-cylinder gasoline engine with two high-torque electric drive motor-generators for potent acceleration and passing capabilities. The AWD system utilizes a separate electric motor for the rear wheels, eliminating the need for transfer gears and a driveshaft, contributing to improved traction as needed.
