2024 Lexus TX 500h F SPORT Performance Quick Review

The 2024 Lexus TX 500h F SPORT Performance ($87,486 starting in Canada, $69,350 starting in the US) is a brand new three-row luxury SUV, with a 2.4 L hybrid engine good for 366 horsepower. It is the first three-row unibody SUV from Lexus to hit our shores, and it aims to provide a comfortable experience for all of its passengers. It has lots of tech and luxury goodies, like acoustic windows, heated and cooled captain chairs, and an optional Mark Levinson sound system. But it costs a pretty penny, and there are lots of SUVs in this category to choose from. How does the new Lexus TX fare? Thomas and James are excited to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode.

[@QuickExpertReviews]

The Integrated Spindle Grilles - Great band name!

[@hi_tech_reptiles]

I assume the other two trims have other seat options, and have different suspension. Tho i also wonder if another mode could solve the issues you had with side-to-side motion. In my MDX changing the IDS or whatever changes suspension and throttle from Sport, Normal and Comfort, the latter being a bit too bouncy in town.

OK, is the 550H+ whatever the target for ultimate comfort. Wondering if its just the f sport tuned suspension that’s giving it the mini crashies.

[@walter.bellini]

I am with Thomas on this one, for me the front looks terrible frankly. Look like a solid block that then had slits inserted in last min. TX is a new line so I think they will be implementing updates and changes as people vocalize their feedbacks and if Lexus is listening. Looking forward to the GX 550! It looks amazing and stout, brilliant!

Driven the 350 and 500F, the ride is so smooth and comfortable in both trims, you feel major imperfections in the road a bit more in the 500 F but it is still a very comfortable ride, We choose the 500F, the rear steer is slick
