CR, you can shelve that music for future video!

[craigw]

I really wanted to watch this but that background music was untenable.

[steptronic]

Spent the entirety of this video trying not to twerk to the background music 😒😑

2:38 I will say, at least that makes sense in the motion of how the door opens. yes it's a bit odd, but I would argue it does make sense, even if it's not immediately evident. although I suspect a design change (like maybe some lighting or a slightly different placement) could fix that.

I agree the fuel tank should have been bigger like at least 20 gal. It looks like the engine is the same as on the NX and this should have at least 300+ hp for this size and added passenger. I am not sure why this model was offered considering the new GX is coming out soon.

Apart from the obvious distracting music, I have some other comments. The iPhone pro max keeps shifting and moving on the wireless charger tray and it’s very annoying. They should have added some rubberized material for grip.

Also, I love the shifter and the door locks. It is clearly a carjacker’s nightmare since that has clearly become a big consideration on my purchase now 😂

The took the annoying trackpad from the center consoles and put them on the steering wheel and multiplied by two.

Y’all’s reviews are finally going back to what it use to be of back in the day if more in depth

To get the hybrid grand highlander, it's not really much more at all. To get the hybrid TX, it increases the price of the car dramatically. Honestly, that probably turns our family off from this car. Why would I want 23 mpg combined when the same car can get me 35 or 36 combined in the hybrid?

[grisa]

I have an RX500 and the door buttons throw a lot of people off. I consider it an IQ test..

[LionRunner]

Toyota owners like myself who've been with Toyota for generations most likely not buy because of the 2.4 Turbo engine. I don't see a point of buying a small displacement turbo gas engine Toyota. I would most likely look for Euro/German brands and use them for a short period. No, I'm not a turbo engine hater. If Toyota brings something like 4.5TD (without DPF) with dual fuel tanks about 47 gallons (180L) I'd strongly consider.

At least it’ll be far easier to replace the spark plugs at 60, 000 miles compared to my transverse 3.5L V6

[kcha]

I wish the interior had wood trims. The plain interior looks more like a Toyota.

[john_wick]

a Turbo V4 is not powerful enough to this big car... prefer to get a regular V6... this is the same as the Grand Highlander... but $20K cheaper

[marinoint]

Electronic "door opener/handle" is a dumb invention that solves no problem. I remember when I first saw in in Corvette, I was perplexed, why the hell would car manufacturer add one more thing that could malfunction?! A car is complex enough, just ask any mechanic!

[harambenights]

They call this car the "Alexis Texas"

[jstelm]

Wow I definitely want my front license plate to be the first thing people notice on the front of my car… definitely mount it lower if you buy one of these, people…

[mfbikle]

I think there should be a recall on all the new Lexus models..

Fuel Light indicator goes off at 20 miles.
For our ‘23 NX350h

I often don’t have gas stations within 20 miles when I’m driving on the highway!

[k-fcr]

this does not look or feel like a lexus. it is a toyota level finish.

[youarerightboss]

That 4 cylinder turbo is a deal breaker for me
