2022 LEXUS NX 450H+ REVIEW: SO MANY REASONS TO LIKE!

EV Channels Review

The 2022 Lexus NX 450h+ Luxury is presented as a premium plug-in hybrid crossover that aims to blend Lexus's signature luxury with electrified efficiency. The reviewer highlights its stylish exterior, particularly the cadmium orange paint and 20-inch wheels, and praises the smooth, quiet ride quality. Key advantages include the flexibility of its plug-in hybrid system, offering up to 37 miles of electric-only range, and a combined 304 net horsepower for brisk acceleration (0-60 mph in 6.0 seconds). The interior receives commendation for its premium materials, comfortable seating, and advanced technology, including the 14-inch Lexus Interface system with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and a head-up display. However, the reviewer notes the absence of the Mark Levinson sound system as a missed opportunity for a top-tier trim. The pricing, starting around $55,650 and reaching $61,000 with options, positions it as a significant investment. Overall, the NX 450h+ is deemed a compelling option for those seeking a luxurious, efficient, and technologically advanced crossover, with its main drawback being the premium price point and the lack of a higher-end audio option.
