EVERYTHING I LIKE AND DISLIKE ABOUT THE 2024 LEXUS NX 350H AWD

EV Channels Review

The reviewer found the 2024 Lexus NX 350h AWD to be a largely positive experience over a week of testing. Key highlights include the innovative electronic door handles, the cleverly designed and space-saving wireless charging pad, and the impressive 14-inch infotainment system with a good, navigable UI. The optional Mark Levinson audio system and the automatic heated/ventilated seats and steering wheel were also praised for their performance and convenience. The heads-up display was noted for its resolution, feature set, and particularly its ability to display oncoming traffic. The reviewer also appreciated the rear door lock/unlock buttons and the overall ergonomic design of the interior. However, several dislikes were noted. The reviewer, being 5'9", found interior space to be somewhat cramped, with knees hitting the center console and door area, suggesting larger individuals might find it uncomfortable. Rear passengers, especially shorter ones, may experience discomfort due to the seat belt angle rubbing against the neck. The steering wheel controls, while touch-sensitive, were found to be unintuitive for simple track skipping, requiring a two-step process. The wireless charging pad, despite its good design, was unreliable, frequently erroring out with cases or even slight phone movement. The sunroof's tint was described as having an undesirable yellow/brown hue that made the cream interior appear more yellow. Finally, the push-button start location was deemed ergonomically awkward, requiring a reach-around maneuver.
