[@jefferybaxter1225]

Hello gentlemen. Good review on the 2024 Lexus TX 350. Lexus says the TX 350 is the replacement for the third row seating RX 350L. The prime reason for that according to their words is "the RX 350L wasn't roomy enough." The standard two row seating RX 350 will remain standing. That vehicle will not get replaced. As for the Lexus TX 350 I like the rugged look to it. The interior is spacious for seating as well as for storage. I also like the fact that the infotainment screen is a little larger and more importantly it's more integrated to the dashboard for a much cleaner seamless look. Like what was mentioned in this video Lexus should've placed a little more wood panels for the interior. I assume Lexus will probably include more wood panels for the two high trim level models TX 500H or TX 550H like what Jeep did with the Grand Cherokee L in the Summit and Summit Reserve trims. Months down the road it would be nice if a comparison video be done between the Jeep Grand Cherokee L from the Overland trim or higher and the Lexus TX in the middle trim or higher. Price points for the two vehicles from the middle trims or higher are almost the same. The length of both vehicles are almost the same as well with the Jeep Grand Cherokee L coming in at 204 inches and the Lexus TX coming in at 203 inches. One thing both vehicles have in common and isn't found on the other competitors is power folding the 3rd row seats in two ways from the cargo area as well as from the lower portion of the C pillars. The other competitors only from the cargo area the third row seats can get folded. Besides the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, it would be nice to see when the time comes that the Lexus TX in comparison videos against the Acura MDX and Infiniti QX60. Right outta the gate it'll beat those two vehicles in terms of overall space, storage and available powertrains. Well, good review on this vehicle, and I'm looking forward to seeing the drive video when Lexus allows it.

If only buyers would accept that what they really need is a minivan, they'd stop trying to cram seats into crossovers and give us a true luxury minivan.

[@broadneydangerfield]

The crap consumers put up with to avoid purchasing minivans is hilarious. Almost no three-row SUV's have a truly comfy third row, and minivans get such good gas mileage. Pride over practicality is leading to development of some odd vehicles. $60k to $80k for unattractive 2-row SUV's with forced third rows lol.

They really struck out on the styling on this vehicle. Mandatory captains chairs in the second row in top trims is also a huge fail for our family with three kids who sometimes need a full second row to maximize cargo space.

Wish you guys would do a review of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit. I test drove it and it was shockingly good - adjustable air suspension for a fantastic ride and great in the snow or mild off road, plush interior, massage front seats (both), heated and ventilated seats, heated rear seats with 4 zone climate control, night vision, driver assist, lane assist, park assist, etc etc etc ... and its American made.

[@CarConfections]

We asked for one but Keep has never been able to get us one to test ☹️

[@RnBFAN06]

Yeah Acura mdx has nothing to worry about unless the lack of touch screen is a deal breaker. Lexus has lost their luxury edge. Plain dash, plain looking seats, not enough color contrast in the cabin, not enough wood at all. Wood on the dash and steering wheel was a Lexus hallmark.

[@MikeForsythe]

This has more engine options. More power. More torque. More MPG. A plug in hybrid. Way more room. More tech. Price is similar.

[@alexmassengale433]

Different cars. For a family that only needs two rows with an occasional use third row, I think the MDX is the easy choice. For a family that really needs the big third row or extra cargo space, the Lexus makes more sense.

[@kevinsonnenberg2868]

I own a 2022 MDX and the lack of a touchpad is becoming a deal breaker for my wife and I. We love the touchpad and cringe when we see filthy touchscreens which show everything. Good review, guys.

[@MikeForsythe]

@@TheBjjones imagine bragging on that. lol.

[@MikeForsythe]

@@TheBjjones you can’t really brag on an acura lol. I mean the Integra is a Civic. They sell barely 4 vehicles, the same as Buick. The MDX is well done and so is this. Unfortunately for the MDX this has more power, room, features, tech and MPG. Acura doesn’t offer one hybrid and their EV is from GM. So I think it’s safe to say the TX will do well and the MDX will continue to do well no matter what you think it looks like. What we do know is the 500h and 500h+ has way more power and torque and mpg over the mdx type s they love to show on tv racing and in the desert drifting that no one does. And I think Motor Trend picked the RX 500h over the mdx type s in a recent comparo.

@@bohan9957 absolutely and what puts me in a bind cuz at 70+ k i can consider other brands but not sure if they’d have all the practicality of the TX.

Эта установка дает кроссоверу мощность в 404 лошадки. Благодаря этому TX 550h станет самым быстрым представителем линейки, так как сможет разгоняться до сотни за шесть секунд. Запас хода на токе составит 53 км. Но купить этот автомобиль будет не так уж просто, потому что в США авто будет продаваться не во всех штатах. Производитель может отдать приоритет таким штатам, как Калифорния, Колорадо и Нью-Йорк.

There’s just something about lexuses these days that seem too close quality wise to Toyotas and lag behind the competitors

Agreed. The retail price gap, required premium unleaded fuel, and loss of the luxury edge is making Lexus vehicles an easy skip these days. Rav4 Prime and updated Land Cruiser are about all I can see myself buying in the next few years. If you'd have told me years ago that I'd choose a Rav4 over a Lexus vehicle, I'd have called you insane. Times are a'changing.

[@ruzzelladrian907]

For 16 years the LX and GX were the only large SUV’s in Lexus’ lineup. There was a huge gap between the unibody RX, the crossover that started the luxury crossover market, and the heavy body-on-frame LX and GX. Lexus needed a large unibody three row crossover SUV, but what they did was just release a slightly larger RX called the RX-L. I find it so odd that Lexus was so ahead with its RX in 1997, that it took them 17 years to add another crossover in their lineup, the NX. Toyota-Lexus is a bit slow at introducing new models. In 2007, Lexus launched the new LX and GX, and they stayed the same for more than a decade and held their position in the lineup for 16 years. Rumors of the TX started to float around the Internet around 2020. Finally, Lexus has a proper unibody three row crossover. That was a long wait. The Lexus lineup does now have a compact crossover, the UX. Though they should add a sub-compact luxury crossover. Fortunately in Europe, they will be getting the LBX. But no word on its arrival in the US. Toyota and Lexus in the US don’t seem to be interested in bringing any cars using the TNGA-B platform to the States like the LBX and Yaris Cross. They’re missing out on the sub-compact market to compete with Hyundai Venue, Nissan Kicks, Audi Q3, and BMW X1. Though the reason might be that they don’t think a sub-compact in the US would sell well, so the smallest is TNGA-C, such as, C-HR, UX, and Corolla Cross. Personally, I just want Toyota and Lexus to stay competitive. It’s just an irony that they were so ahead in the late 90’s and early 2000’s with the RX, Rav4, and Highlander. Then they got complacent and took a long time to add more unibody SUV’s to the lineup. There was the Lexus HPX concept in 2003, it would use the GS’ platform. But it didn’t go into production. It’s interesting to point out that Lexus has gone the same direction as Infiniti and Acura’s strategy of platform sharing by borrowing from their mass-market models. The TX is based on TNGA-K, which is used on the Rav4 and Highlander. It is a platform for front-wheel drive and transverse mounted engine. Though customers won’t know the difference, as long as there’s a Lexus badge and its interior has leatherette and more sound deadening, I was expecting that Lexus would use a flagship Toyota platform fit for a Lexus like TNGA-L, formerly known as Toyota N platform. Now Lexus is mostly comprised of front-wheel drive based vehicles. There used to be a distinction from a Toyota sedan from a Lexus. The Toyotas would be front-wheel drive. And the Lexus’s would be on a premium rear-wheel drive platform, except for the Camry-based ES. So only the flagships use Toyota’s high end platforms, such as, the LS and LC. I see it as a way for them to cost-cut and maximize profits by consolidating as many of their models into a few platforms. Infiniti was ahead of using a rear-wheel drive platform on its FX and EX crossovers, so there was a distinction between a Nissan Murano and an Infiniti FX. Infiniti today now uses front-wheel drive on their new QX55, which replaced the EX. Acura has been platform sharing with Honda from day one, so it’s no surprise. The distinction is that Acura models use SH-AWD instead of Honda’s iVTM4, they’re very similar now, but the Acura is programmed to be rear-bias. In conclusion, Japanese automakers have simplified their production of their models by consolidating their luxury and mass-market vehicles into one or two front-wheel drive platforms in a way to lower costs and to ease their manufacturing. Since their brands have been established, they no longer have to constantly prove that they are a tangible luxury brand. They now only need to be luxurious in abstract. Genesis is the new luxury brand, and they’re trying hard to be a tangible luxury brand using rear-wheel drive platforms tuned and developed by former BMW engineer Albert Biermann. In an effort to match the Germans. The question is - will Genesis get complacent like Lexus and the other Japanese luxury brands in the future by switching their strategy to be an abstract luxury brand to cut costs?

[@M_H_H]

Good writing

[@MercOne]

Good reading, but there isn't any BMW DNA showing up any of Genesis' cars beyond the G70, which looks like it will be dropped soon. The rest of their cars aren't sporty in the least. I hear people say this about an ex BMW engineering working for Genesis, but they can't point to a single benefit of this so far. The reason why the Japanese are going cheap is because they aren't luxury car manufacturers, they're luxury car brands. There is a huge difference. Luxury cars are NOT the main focus or business of Toyota, Honda or Nissan and it shows. They were only able to match the Germans when the Germans sold a limited amount of models. Now that the Germans have filled every niche with something + a performance variant the Japanese don't have a prayer of matching them or even catching up. Lexus' RWD vehicles range from dated to laughably outdated and are totally un-competitive. Acura has never been a factor and Infiniti is on life support. Genesis is off to a great start, but lets see what happens.

[@faheemabbas3965]

As long as they’re not as reliable as a Lexus, or not a status symbol, then no. It will remain niche for now imo.

Most of these third row vehicles look good from the second row up. A lot of these third row vehicles really have no room in the third row this vehicle included. It’s amazing how much this vehicle cost with no third row. The GMC Arcadia terrain seem to have a better third row than this high price vehicle.

[@normanli7085]

There is a third row, it's basically full size SUV space inside, which only the current Buick enclave and the upcoming redesigned GMC Acadia can match. The current Acadia is Highlander sized

[@hellkitty1014]

It is the vehicle that Lexus needs for sure, but it is about 20 years late in developing, ceding a lot of ground to Acura and Infiniti in this space of the Japanese entrants, which was so strange to me. Nonetheless, latte moms will buy these in droves because it is a no-fuss vehicle that hauls the family. In terms of luxury, it remains disappointing to see the direction of Lexus interiors, primarily the expected upmarket feel of a luxury vehicle. This interior is functional, but comes across more "Toyota Platinum" than Lexus Luxury. It doesn't have that warm luxury appearance that Lexus once did well. Considering this vehicle occupies the same space as a Genesis GV80 and even non-premium vehicles like the Mazda CX-90 and Hyundai Palisade, this seems to be a step behind even those.

I’m so happy you’re disappointed with the tx. Because I knew this was gonna happen. I’m pretty sure you laughed at my when I initially said the tx was doa when it was first unveiled on June 8th. You said I should give it a chance and my hate on Toyota isn’t valid But that’s not the case here is it…?😉

[@chibbyylol]

@@naveenthemachine Let's see if it's truly 'dead' on arrival come next quarter's sales reports

[@sofreshsofresh3143]

Lol u blind it’s much bigger then gv80 It not for u

[@omendarklight1526]

​@@chibbyylolSorry you have to deal with this. I've been trying to keep him in his cage 😂😂 he still gets out sometimes, darn Naveen

[@shabi111]

nice car but, 1. what will be the waiting time 2. what will be the mark ups 3. how expensive the insurance will be 4. how fast will it get stolen

[@hoodsta_Pizzo]

Exactly also the interest hikes plus these new car prices are ridiculous I wish we all could not buy a vehicle for one month an that will cause the car companies to bow to us and create reasonable prices also lower interest

[@mirai_T]

Which has better 3rd seats Lexus TX or Palisade?

[@CarConfections]

The TX

[@mirai_T]

@@CarConfections 👍🏻thanks

[@naveenthemachine]

Palisade hands down. Not even close

[@itsomarz9337]

What about the LX570??

[@CarConfections]

This TX has substantially more interior space

[@Imal-7ydar]

It's almost huge Toyota highlander with luxury offering

[@tmyere.]

I find it very weird that this is considered midsize although its bigger than the LX, which is fullsize.

[@jpthsd]

does TX 350 have Hybrid option?

[@CarConfections]

The TX 500h and 550h+ are the hybrid and plug-in hybrid varieties. The 350 is just a turbo 4-cylinder

[@jpthsd]

@@CarConfections OMG ,,,so TX 350 not much different than Grand Highlander and/or other Toyota turbo 4-cylinder then ,,,

[@CarConfections]

@@jpthsd correct. It's exactly the same engine.

[@afzalshaikh2128]

If you want a 7 seat suv with a bench seat this might be this best Japanese option

[@kiefydoinks]

It’s A-Lexus Texas!

[@lillielevros-desir227]

The Grand Highlander with a Lexus badge…… literally nothing else altered

[@mueldaddy]

Lexus did a good job further refining their cars in 2024 but unrefined their power trains by going to the 4 banger!

[@Brookslivsey997]

I hate the loss of the v6!

[@Red-xz1gk]

I think that is not 4-way lumber, it’s 2-way… why cheap cloth insert for the seats? This is not very luxury.. The second space is excellent. The third row is very useable for people who is average in height and size. Great job there! This is important for a family SUV. Wonder why not go with Grand Highlander…

[@braylonking574]

They aren't cloth, they're Alcantara inserts.

[@sofreshsofresh3143]

Cloth? look it up million dollar car also wear same cloth😂

[@mitchellpritsker448]

The Lexus TX and the Toyota Grand Highlander the same platform and also the 2nd and the 3rd row is very roomy back there.

[@derrickwhite9578]

Kinda looks like the old Axiom @ first look

[@ReviewingRockstar]

The GX and LX also have 3rd rows

[@CarConfections]

”large" is the key word

[@ReviewingRockstar]

@@CarConfections The LX is a tank. I’m pretty sure it has a larger third row

[@cablebrain9691]

It looks like a slightly raised station wagon to me.

[@jstark9148]

Everything is bigger in Texas? Except their roads in the residential area are so narrow.

[@user-xp3yz2qj6x]

Interior design dept must have been drinking too much sake

[@greg1288]

For a 5’ 7 man this is ok in the back seat but anything over 6’ + it’s only adequate…3rd row still for kids

[@patricklee3876]
