Hey you know what Lexus is missing the missing massaging seats that's what Acura MDX type S have they have massaging seats the Lexus TX 500 H does not have massaging seats

[@CarGeek360]

Idc for massaging seats personally (though I can see why some people like them) and I wouldn’t want a Type-S MDX anyways as those low-profile tires will go flat easily. I rly like the normal MDX but Acura needs to give it a hybrid powertrain with close to 400hp (to improve fuel mileage and add to the fun).

[@dougclendening5896]

It doesn't have air suspension either. For being near 80k it really needs that. The type s massage seats are an extra 5k.

[@tenkkhan4676]

Would the hybrid be able to tow more comfortably/easier? I know it’s listed at 5,000 lbs but I would think the extra hp would help with towing.

The X5 is a nice-looking suv. I thought of getting one. But, according to youtube car experts, X5 has many problems once the warranty expires, like oil,coolant leak, and electronic infotainment issues. It's very expensive to repair and low resale value.

[@jefferybaxter1225]

Hello gentlemen. Good review video for the 2024 Lexus TX 500H F Sport. With this vehicle, Lexus definitely made an emphasis on overall interior space for sure. Interior space for storage, comfort and cargo. This 500H F Sport model also has good performance numbers as well. From 0-60 in less than 7 seconds is pretty quick for a vehicle of this size. Based on the comments I've seen for this video, some said that this vehicle is a little too pricey. Lexus could've thrown in four or five more features due to this price point. Four or five more features that are missing, which are found on a vehicle I got not too long ago. Three months ago back in July, I got the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L in the Summit Reserve trim with the 5.7 liter V8 engine. Features on my vehicle that's not on the Lexus TX 500H F Sport include the following: 1. Massaging front seats 2. Front seats thigh extender 3. Adjustable air suspension 4. Interior camera 5. Night vision camera 6. Exposed bumper integration exhaust tips 7. Besides power folding 3rd row seats, there's power folding 2nd row seats as well 8. Built-in towing package

[@CK-1000]

The lack of features with the TX is wild. You got some really good features with your Jeep

[@jefferybaxter1225]

@CK-1000 Thank you. With the air suspension on my vehicle, it drives like you're driving on a cloud. As for the Lexus TX 500H F Sport, like what both of us said Lexus should've thrown in few more features for the price point of the vehicle. They should've done it because the TX is a new SUV model in the lineup and it replaces the third row seating RX 350L. I assume Lexus might throw in few of the M.I.A. features we mentioned during a mid-cycle refresh for this TX. Let's see what happens.

[@naveenthemachine]

@@jefferybaxter1225 you will never get those features ever in a TX. Ever 😆

[@jefferybaxter1225]

@naveenthemachine I don't know what Lexus was thinking. It appears they put too much focus on getting overall interior space while forgetting about comfy features. Out of the eight features found on my vehicle and MIA on the Lexus TX 500H F Sport, Lexus could've at least included three of them. They could've included massaging front seats, adjustable air suspension system and a built in towing package. At least those three they could've included, but didn't do it. I assume maybe, just maybe the top performing TX 550H plug in hybrid with the 3.5 liter V6 might have those features. Let's see what they will include for that particular model when it arrives in either January or February.

[@naveenthemachine]

@@jefferybaxter1225 the 550h doesn’t include anything . Oh and no sunroof in the 550h 😆 No tx will ever have these missing features

[@jsfbay1]

Guys, I hope you get a chance to compare this to the MDX Type S. I'm not surprised that this TX feels quicker what with all the electric torque. I think that the Type S is a bit quicker in the 1/4 mile though (14.1 @ 100 mph, vs 14.3 @ 98 mph for the Grand Highlander Hybrid Max, or essentially the same - these #'s are all from Car & Driver, but tested by different people on different days). But basically they are both properly quick compared to others in the segment (except of course for the X7 with the V8 and other high performance and higher $$ vehicles.)

[@pm7805]

Great review!! How’s the lighting of the vehicle at night? It has just single led headlight? RX has triple beam.

[@andrewblocher9110]

I don’t know if you realize how outstanding the sound level readings make you guys as car reviewers. The TX just became the most compelling 3 row vehicle for consideration. I am anxious to see you review the new GX to see how Lexus enhanced the sound design.

[@CarConfections]

Glad you enjoy them!

[@JOONSSSSS]

I definitely prefer this over GH hybrid max. But I’m trying to buy GH cash. Not willing to pay more of TX.. hope I don’t miss out too much.

[@jakes5530]

The standard (non premium) 500h f sport is $72k, that's not a bad value for what it offers. Undercuts the X7 and GLS by quite a bit and is only marginally more expensive than the other non-German "rivals" from Volvo Infiniti and Acura. I say that in quotes bc the XC90 Qx60 and MDX are quite a bit smaller than the TX500 and less powerful

[@armandolo17]

Really impressive vehicle, but a bit pricey tbh. BTW Great Review Guys.

[@dougclendening5896]

Damn. The only thing holding me back is that it doesn't have air suspension compared to its closest rivals: xc90 and mdx s type. The cabin space feels incredibly spacious when you step inside compared to those, and the DB reading is great. I also prefer its screen. It feels like it's integrated well and the right size.

My grandpa is in the market for a new Lexus so I want to know weather you found the regular NX to have better ride quality or the F-Sport?

[@apapa8]

what is the actual MPG?

[@faheemabbas3965]

The Lexus TX was made by Toyota, only slightly better than the Grand Highlander to reduce markups on those. Same for Honda making the Acura Integra being only slightly better, if better at all, than the Civic Si to reduce Si markups. This also goes for the Type S to reduce Type R markups. Both Honda and Toyota didn’t want to spend too much on their anti-markup clones so they can make profit off of people who buy the luxury versions of marked-up cars. Is this some kind of new anti-markup strategy by Japanese brands in North America?

[@Boston37PB]

Have to disagree with you. Test drove the TX 500h and the grand highlander. The TX was miles in terms of luxury, ride quality and refinement. That being said, the TX 350 was not even close to the 500h either on the ride quality part. The 350 is 69K though.

[@acousticmikeb8119]

I’m looking at the highest end Acura MDX (have had three), the Q7, the TX 500h F sport, and the BMW X7. The German cars (I’ve owned both brands) are good cars but maintenance is quite expensive and depreciation is terrible. The Acura and Lexus have respectable depreciation. The new type s MDX gets kinda poor gas mileage and still has the tiny third row. The Lexus TX (never owned this brand) has the huge third row, can fold down to carry massive amounts of stuff, is whisper quiet (as are the others), has the 4 cylinder engine (really?)bolstered by Toyota’s famous and bullet proof hybrid drivetrain (but weighs 6700 pounds meaning tires will wear quicker). But I have to admit that I feel better about 27-28 mpg when it comes to hydrocarbon usage. I own an Audi electric, a Hyundai ionic 5 electric and a hybrid Gord truck, so the TX seems like it would fit in the stable better. But I just don’t know because all of the cars in thus segment are pretty nice.

For people saying it's pricey, it is compared to old car prices. But let's remember how ridiculous they are. A Camry is a $50k car now, and a 911 4S is $230k. Compared to other new car prices, this is actually pretty good, considering the German counterparts are pushing $100k

While I think it is overpriced, people spread their finances thin (which is often why people lease). Lexus will not be able to keep any TX model on the lot for more then a couple days. These are the 'hotcakes' that jump off the frying pan. With that said, IMO NEVER buy the first model year of a car unless you like to be a Lexus beta-tester. Let others pay $$$ to Lexus to test the car. 2nd, 3rd and last model year of a car are usually the best times to buy.

front looks like the old highlander.. This can easily be mistaken for a Palisade but with an L badge. it'll sell like hotcakes for sure just cause it's Lexus

[@keithcrandall1369]

I am still not 100% sold on reliability of Kia/Hyundai/Genesis. I know Toyota has turbochargers, etc, but I would trust their stuff more at 100k miles then the others.

[@steverogers7211]

@@keithcrandall1369 most definitely. that's not even including the whole stolen car fiasco in the US

[@user-kq6ot7dz6y]

No it doesn’t worth 80 k … max 60 k

[@KuyaArbee]

that 33 inches is also a LIE that is with the second row seats fully pushed FORWARD! lol Toyota/Lexus measurements are so misleading...

[@ibrahimbashir6634]

Hello cartoon

[@CarGeek360]

All car companies lie about their measurements not just Toyota.

I want a big ugly chrome grill so the poor know to get out the way

[@2laidragon]

Too much plastic inside the car. It really doesn’t look expensive at all.

[@thebigone6071]

You must be cray cray to spend 78K on a Lexus!!! For that price you best get yourself a Bimmer like a X5!!! Plus you might just get a taste of some phat chocolate cakes like mine boo!!!

[@normanli7085]

Or the X7, if u want something with a usable third row and good driving dynamics

[@gamelauncher9821]

Get the CX-90, XC-90 or the MDX Type S

[@CarGeek360]

I would take this TX over all of those. The BMWs will have inferior seats and legroom. The Volvo will have inferior seats and reliability. The Mazda is a great option but not my preference as it’s more sport oriented while the MDX and TX are more luxury oriented. The MDX would be my personal preference in the segment if it was hybrid but sadly it’s not so TX for the win. MDX Type-S also has low-profile tires that go flat easily which is why I’d prefer to have a normal MDX personally.

Even keep grand Cherokee summit have better interior

[@CarGeek360]

@@kromahj from the pictures I've seen, the Grand Cherokee Summit has a REALLY nice interior. I highly doubt it'll have the reliability of an Acura or Lexus though. If reliability wasn't a concern for me, I'd honestly just get a Mercedes-Benz GLE450.

[@JustNotInBoba]

Way over priced, I rather get full size suv instead 😂

[@petermoktan7132]

Ugly design just go buy Highlander

[@Unknownuser0515]

Man…exterior looks ugly

[@socko1019]

The Germans cars are much better choice.They drive much better,Moore luxurious….and same price like Lexus!!! Tru is Toyota-Lexus are Moore reliable.If you need car or if you change car every 6,7 ..years bay upscale Toyota with Moore expensive plastics inside.If you change ,lease car every 2-4 years than Mercedes,Audi,BMW is the place to spend money.To avoid future problems with Moore complex and technology advance-vehicles -lease is the best,you will be Moore happy with your car experience.Germans they know how to make great vehicles.

[@Boston37PB]

German cars aren’t the same price lol. This thing is the same size as a BMW X7 and that starts at 81K. You can get a TX 500h luxury (the top one) for 77k.

[@canoeshoe]

This car is hideous, so glad i got a Grand Highlander

[@CarGeek360]

I prefer the TX styling but to each their own. Everyone has their own opinions and I respect yours.

[@kcha2004]

The TX has tiny break lights! The interior looks cheap, some wood trims would help.
