Chris, I think it’s really unique in that you understand the point of vehicles and not just write things off. There’s a huge market for people of a compact hybrid, and as much as I love Car & Driver, they’re not helping by says “buy an X3 and suck it up”. Love your variety of cars and categories that you like - I really doubt there’s anyone else who loves a BRZ as much as a RAV4 Plug in, as much as an old FWD Volvo. Great work.

Even the new Audi that’s way bigger than the Nx has a better turning radius but the gas mileage is great and like you said .

Nice review, but where you said that it's a Lexusified older Gen Rav4 people might have mistaken that in a bad way. It's way way WAY more luxurious than the rav4 and it drives really diferently and it's really diferent apart from the power train which is ok. Great review though!

@@lex_uss First off, it's not real leather, it's synthetic. And obviously, it's more luxurious as I mentioned, the Rav4 is meant to be a rugged hauler, and the NX more refined. The stiching is artifical, and I've driven both. My uncle owns a dealership, even he knows there isn't a wide production margin, they are similar vehicles with slightly different tuning, it's why the transmission on the NX hybrid revs so much worse at high speeds than its counterpart. It's really not a debate, it's a slightly more premium version of an older generation.

Here in the UK my partner and I have the hybrid in FSport trim, the handling and ride are much tighter than the non-FSport and the seats are so much better! You can definitely have a bit more fun with it, kinda like the best in-between among the 3 variants of the NX. We average around 40mpg UK. The new model though couldn't come soon enough, the engine desperately needs to be updated... Also in the UK, the NX doesn't have that silly looking front snout and the Mark Levinson has always been available.

I hate the NX now. They've allowed it to get so dated that the 2 row RX seems to fit this class more than this does. This is even smaller than all its competitors and underpowered. The RX 2 row is closer to the price of the likes of the Q5, QX50, X3 or GLC and the power from the RX is more inline with what those offer depending on packages. I just think the NX isn't needed and it's sales are slipping and not a strong as when it was originally released. RX should stay 2 row, drop that useless RX-L and redesign the GX soon. This car is just meh, its too close to the UX in size and hybrid power. All the UX needs is the the 2.0T from this as an upgraded engine and this car will really be useless 💯

NO power at all, awful handling, outdated interior, and not cheap. Just normal acceleration and the needle displayed it's using the full power. Feeling lack of power towards freeway speed at 85 mph, let alone passing someone 80mph+. Some advice, get urself a q5 55e or x3phev for just a little bit more money, but a much better car. It also qualifies for a few thousand tax credit, which might actually be even cheaper than this nx300h.
