Everything I LIKE and DISLIKE about the 2024 Lexus NX 350h AWD

In this video I discuss my likes and dislikes about the 2023/2024 Lexus NX 350h AWD. Over my week with the Lexus NX 350h, I was able to drive it through a variety of conditions and overall was very impressed. The powertrain is extremely smooth (albeit not overly powerful) and the ride quality is soft. The driving experience is very much refined and luxurious. Despite the dislikes, such as the wireless charging not working or small gripes about the start button location, the overall experience was great. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!

I have this exact vehicle. Mine is just black instead of orange, which I would’ve much preferred. I am extremely happy with this vehicle.

I think, that dislike for buttons on the steering wheel is actually a like, because while driving even if you touch it for once, nothing will happen. In mercedes this is sometimes frustrating, because, you touch it and something is changing. Designers of lexus put it for a reason, logical idea, so for me this is a like. 😎😀

Overall, I think your reviews are among the best I have seen. Very informative, I have really learned a lot from your various vlogs. Just teasing on the Lexus, appreciate your efforts.

Three years since I’ve car-shopped so I am glad I found your channel! Keep doing your reviews in this format - it works.

It's a great vehicle for small families that don't need a larger SUV (RX350h or RX500h) or a three row SUV (Highlander). It's efficient and luxurious for the highest trim. I tried to obtain one starting in December and seven Lexus dealers in Texas said to forget it, they could not obtain one for months. I also tried to obtain an RX350h and they said 9 to 12 months plus pay a $2, 000 deposit just to get on a list and no guarantee about obtaining the trim and colors/options that I wanted. I dropped the whole thing in April.

PS-I was able to obtain (April) a 2023 Lexus ES300h, Ultra Luxury Trim plus additional options and dealer add-ons because the person that wanted it dropped out. We drove 300 miles to review her and decided to buy. Love the vehicle, it has 25 less h.p. than the NX350h; however I'm averaging over 41+ MPG in the City. 🤔

I totally agree with that start button good review thanks

[kevinwarrick]

Great review and agree with your likes. I would add the gas efficiency of the hybrid engine. My 2022 NX gets 41-45 mpg on the highway....that's a huge plus for me.

I will absolutely forget my phone in the wireless charger every single time 😂

I'm 6'6" and sat in both the NX and RX at the auto show in Charlotte and was really surprised out how cramped I was in both. I think the console is wider than in most cars and it takes up a lot of space.

Topgun SUV. (Hybrid only)

Run flat tires are brutal. Shifter is terrible.

Consumer Rating 8.5/10 ✅

My gripe is Minor but Gear shift FORWAR for reverse and rearward for forward ? . Wind screen wash pull for windscreen push for Rear

re: phone charger. Just bought a '25. When I turn phone 180 ( phone top & cameras on driver side) charger works fine with heavy case.

Another dislike i have is how plain the passenger side dash is.. the plain soft touch area right next to the infotainment system.. i think they couldve added a lil something there.. haha

I have a 2022 so maybe they’ve updated the software but I bet not. I hate how the door locks work on my car. SO many ways in which the door locks work are unsafe. Problem 1: You can’t lock the doors unless all 4 are closed. Problem 2: When you open the hatch all 4 doors unlock automatically and you can’t lock them even if you try. There is a dealer programmable option that can change this but ONLY if you use the key to open the hatch. If you open the hatch handsfree, all 4 doors will unlock and there’s nothing you can do to lock them while the hatch is open. Problem 3: you can’t open the hatch if the engine is running so no putting the kiddo in the air conditioning while you load up the groceries. Problem 4: The default setting is to unlock all 4 doors when the car is put in park. Luckily this is a setting that the owner can modify but I bet most owners don’t even know this is happening since there is Problem 5: no audible feedback indicating that the doors locked or unlocked. I’ve only had my car a few weeks so who knows how many other unsafe scenarios there are with the inability to lock the doors on demand.

Still not sure why car manufacturers are not adding magsafe car chargers near the screen areas. Nobody I know actually uses the wireless charging that's built-in when it is located at the cupholder area. They always end up getting the accessories where you get a magnetic mount so you can see your phone while driving whether they have carplay/android auto or not. These accessories have been around so long, it is common sense to just have that integrated nicely into the car.

I never would have thought about the moonroof tint affecting the interior seat colour. I'd probably go with the tan colour as white/grey seats probably get dirty faster and show more wear earlier.

It looks like the door handles on the outside can go in and be flush with the door, like Tesla door handles?? Am I seeing that correctly? If so, how can I set that for my 2024 NXh?

[boblowney]

thank you! What did you think of the video rear view mirror?

[richardkessler]

I understand by the literature it reads that this car runs on high test 91 octane or above.
I really like the car but i’ll only buy a car that runs on regular gas. 87 octane.
Would be interested to know if most people with this car would fill up with regular or high test.

[allengilman]

Very informative review! You did an excellent job but I have one concern that you did not address. Can this car run on regular gas without harming the engine? That is the one concern I need to resolve before deciding if I want to purchase this vehicle.
