2024 Lexus NX 350h AWD Luxury Review

Today’s ClassicCars TV feature is the 2024 Lexus NX 350 AWD, an upscale compact SUV with more technology than a space shuttle. Pricing for the NX 350h starts at $44,205, which is less than $200 more than the non-hybrid model yet achieves almost double the EPA-rated gas mileage around town. Our Lexus listed for $56,855 with options and the usual fees, with the main culprit for the price increase coming courtesy of the Luxury Package. That includes the Premium Package plus some other goodies that may or may not be to your taste.

I’ve had this car for 6 months and LOVE it! I’m 75 and getting 43.4 mpg

Bought this car two weeks ago and love it. What he didn’t mention is it also have a digital key, which means you can download the app and the cars starts just the same as if you have the actual key. I can leave the key at home as long as I have my phone with me.This is perfect for when you are going out and you are using a small pocketbook.

I have the 2022 350h premium with 14 inch screen and 18 inch tires. Switched to regular Michelin Defender LTX tires and totally vouch for this suv. Have 33k miles abd no electric or mechanical issues . Getting 40 mpg overall .

Absolutely OUTSTANDING REVIEW…full of useful information given quickly, well done on all levels! The review sparked my interest, particularly in the vehicle’s pragmatic design and high MPG/reliability that I ended up test driving/ordering/and recently purchased…so very pleased. THANK YOU!!!

I have a Lexus NX 2020 and I’m picking up a 2024 this week. They are great cars to have and so much fun to drive! I am excited to get the new one.

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 own the 2022 version of this Lexus and love it. I have found the lane tracing to be excellent. I’ve owned several cars with LKAS and this one is by far the best. My wife has the 2023 infinity QX60 and it is not even close with its lane keeping.

I recently bought the NX 250 and love it!

You are completely wrong about the e-CVT operation. There are no cones or bands

[nicksmith]

Very thorough walkthrough. I'm looking to move to a new NX hybrid in two years from my current 2015 NX F Sport that I bought new 8 years ago and has held up extremely well. Looking forward to a new vehicle as I only rotate mine and my wife's car every 5 years and keep for 10.

Sometimes I felt like the manufacture + reviewer are doing some bait-and-switch false sense by advertising "The car cost $40k for the base trim, then $45 for the better trim with hybrid; but then they make and review the vehicle trim that would cost you $55k because it has all the features and upgrades that are very presentable to the public. But then as a buyer I would be looking at this very high feature and cool looking vehicle while thinking $45k price range, and keep getting disappointed and need to "forcibly" understand that the $45k trim only have feature A and B, and does not come with C, D, and E depicted in the video. Such as uncool looking front, bad looking rims, smaller tires, no accent, downgraded seats, no sunroof, no power liftgate, and not in a color tone wanted. Would have been easy to just show me the $40k base trim and then the $55k full trim, and tell me which specific upgrades will be added to my price point (Instead of me needing to do the mindset downgrade because of your faulty inception).

[AnhHaiCaChon]

I just received the car 2 weeks ago. It's a great car. I really love it.❤

[Miinard]

I didnt know that luka doncic can review a vehicle that good. 😂😂😂

[frigola]

awesome review. The lexus security features should be the standard for all cars.

[PraiseYAyoupeople]

Toyota ECVT is completely different than other CVTs. It's a planetary gear system. Extremely durable and dependable

[jsfbay]

It may seem pedantic, but the hybrid system has what they call an "E-CVT" which is a planetary gear set, vs what you describe, that is, a regular CVT with cones and a chain. I agree that at the end of the day, the motor still sounds as though the car has a traditional CVT.

[kouroshzandi]

Wow…Great review of Lexus NX Hybrid. Thank you.

[johnnaylor]

Very thorough look at the many features on the Lexus NX 350h.👌

I wasn’t going to mention the overuse of the word “cool” but I have, sorry but a different adjective would be nice, useful, convenient, novel, excellent, welcome, novel, different, pleasing agreeable. Marvellous I look forward to your next review on living with an NX maybe 👌

[paul]

It is impossible to custom order a vehicle through Lexus. They have an allocation system and the dealer will try and match you up with a manufactured vehicle but it will not match your exact specifications. So be prepared to get a different color, interior or options than what you want.
