EV Channels Review
The 2022 Lexus NX receives a significant redesign, marking its second generation. While visually similar to its predecessor, it now shares a platform with the RAV4 and Camry. The review highlights four powertrain options, including a plug-in hybrid and a turbocharged four-cylinder. A major improvement is the completely redesigned infotainment system, moving away from the problematic touchpad to a more intuitive touchscreen, though the unique, monostable gear selector is noted as having a steep learning curve and potential for user error. Both the F Sport and plug-in hybrid variants were praised for their distinct characters, with the F Sport offering a sportier feel and the hybrid providing a quiet, smooth delivery. The interior is described as feeling more spacious with improved fit and finish. Enhanced safety features, including Lexus Safety System 3.0 with safe exit assist, are also noted. Despite its premium price point in a competitive segment, the updated NX is presented as a compelling option.
