Is the ALL NEW 2024 Lexus TX 550h a luxury 3-row midsize SUV worth the PRICE?

FIRST DRIVE: The TX is all new from Lexus for 2024. The 550h is the top trim of the lineup. On the outside you will discover an all new grill and 21in wheels. On the inside you will be greeted by a large 14in infotainment screen and tons of passenger space. Under the hood is a 3.5L V6 paired with an electric motor. Is the ALL NEW 2024 Lexus TX 550h a luxury 3-row midsize SUV worth the PRICE?

I am only here to find out how many iguanas I can fit in the center console.

I’m not a car person nor do I understand half of the words that come out of his mouth but I still watch all of his videos because he is so dang entertaining! Who would’ve thought I’d find comedy in car review videos! 😂

This powerplant is what the Toyota Sienna van needs!!

[fordmuscleluis]

Wow those huge 22" wheels are so awesome 🔥 glad you got this Lexus TX-550H review bro

[azizulsulaiman]

If that grill has long LEDs on it, that would be awesome, imagine nightly drive dem lights chefs kiss

I love how this has a nice balance of Lexus familiarity and new stuff. It's unmistakably a Lexus but it doesn't have the usual bulbous shape.

After 7 Suburbans, finally downsizing. Shopping for several years: Traverse/Palisade/Grand Highlander, etc. After realizing the new Suburban/Denali hood is just too high for my 5'4" frame, I put a deposit down on a 500h+. This is the one of the best reviews I've found on this SUV. Cons: no sunroof and limited exterior/interior colors like other models.

Great work as usual Joe! So the question enquiring minds want to know the answer to is, which one is quicker? This or the "Hybrid Max" Lexus TX?

[abe_ismain]

I see it now. Your personal drone following you as you drive down highway!

[sonalmalhotra]

Lovely video. Great Car- Enjoy it my friend

[mystictk]

Man I am loving all this Lexus content, these are designed so well and very beautiful.

[briannewson]

Definitely going to put the flapjacks from ihop in that compartment! 😂

[pinkipipe]

Don’t get the small engine, it feels lack of power . The big one brings great power and feels good!

Okay, Joe, here’s a challenge for you. If and when you get to 1.5 million or 2 million subscribers, I challenge you to fill a car of your choice with snack item off your choice. Maybe you can have a drawing and donate the proceeds to charity? Or maybe you just do it for fun. Either way, keep up the good work. May you both be well.

Now my first new Lexus SUV I want to buy.

One thing I am wondering about is if this has a "room" mode where HVAC works over an extended period of time with the other functions of the car being off. It may make a great camping vehicle with all that cargo space if it did. Also, can the 120V 1500W outlet be used when the car is off, or in a way that it would cycle the gas engine on and off to keep the battery sufficiently charged. If so it would make a great generator to power a backup home window AC etc when the home power is out.

I think Lexus knocked it out of the park here again I really like this suv I also like the grill and love the wheels they go very well with this suvs design Great video Joe thanks you always do a terrific job keeping us up to date

[dominickirkwood]

Joe and Lori and Steve and keep up the good work and I love the video 👍 true

[alexmassengale]

The captains chairs in the middle row make this a no go for my family. I really wish they offered this engine with a 3 place second row. Preferably with a removable middle seat.

Hey Joe...what do you think of this as compared to a Volvo xc90 recharge? What I am after is that EV "feeling" for my commute, with the phev setup for road trips. I love the way my current EV drives, but taking it on a road trip is such a hassle(and stressful) I won't do it again. Is this able to drive in EV mode with a decent amount of acceleration?
