EV Channels Review
The Lexus TX is positioned as the crucial three-row luxury crossover that Lexus has been missing, aiming to fill a gap between the more off-road-focused LX and the smaller RX and GX. The video highlights that the TX will be built on the flexible K platform, shared with the Grand Highlander, and will feature a longer wheelbase for improved interior space and ride comfort. While specific details remain under wraps, potential powertrains include a 350 (2.4L turbo), a 500h hybrid (367 hp), and a 550h+ plug-in hybrid. The reviewer expresses skepticism about the 550h+ arriving before 2025 due to battery production timelines. The video also touches on the upcoming Lexus GT3 race car and Toyota's broader EV strategy, with the reviewer expressing doubt about the feasibility of meeting 2030 EV production targets given current battery capacity and infrastructure limitations.
