In today's video, thanks to the good people at ‪@lexusuk‬ I am trying the all new NX. I have not sampled the previous generation, but it was one of their biggest selling products and their number one best seller here in Britain - so it's key that they get it right.
I've recently driven the DS7, a car that is also trying to appeal to the quirky enthusiast who needs an all-round capable daily driver - but can the NX stand out from a very crowded market?

Thank you so much! I’ve been seriously considering a high spec NX but had some questions/doubts - all of which you answered thoroughly. In fact, you answered Qs I didn’t know I had; e.g. panoramic sunroof. Wasn’t going to spec it but will now. Btw, totally agree with oddity that Takumi doesn’t get adaptive suspension. FSport with Takumi pack here we come. Again, thanks.

TNGA in its many iterations is a very competent global architecture, and it's clear that between this and the current RAV-4 Prime, there's plenty more refinement to be had which could warrant stepping up to an NX.

The reason Toyota has been slow to move into EVs and even PHEVs is because their hybrid range actually works really well to keep their fleet CO2 emissions under the legal limits. Other manufacturers had to hit the deep end with EVs in order to get the credits needed to stay under fleet CO2 limits.

I bought a 2015 GS450H a couple of months ago, and it's just amazing. Easily the best car I've ever had and a bit special too, as it's not the 100th E-Class or the 200th 5-Series someone sees in a day. Best part for me is the Lexus interiors, so comfy, so good looking (especially the stitching), and as Jay says not a single creak, even on mine with 75.000km. I've never been into SUVs, but it's good to see that they have now also set the next step towards a plug-in hybrid. A few more years and I can switch right over from my gas guzzler into an electric.

Just talking from experience and coming from 20+yrs of German soup. Some fabulous cars in those years. A lot of money blown and miles of fun and thrills. Now no longer viable on today's roads. Lexus nailed Merc and BMW owners with quality throughout, tactile feedback, class leading comfort and ownership, BS free experience. They're made in Japan, and the Japanese have to drive mostly in heavy traffic (much better organised in Tokyo than any other city in the world IMHO). Their cars reflect that. Even the base FWD version of the previous version you won't feel short changed.

So good that the mid-size Lexus SUV can now be bought without apologies (online reviews used to mention bad ride/lack of quality feel despite selling well). I have an RX400h and it's simply a phenomenal vehicle across the board. The NX450+ is the vehicle I would buy now. Thorough review that will appeal to many - especially considering the rarified air that you could permanently dwell in, if you saw fit. Actually, forget all that - they had me at the phone charging/storing solution.

Most people don't buy cars like that, they lease them for 3 to 4 years. So they only care about the monthly payments and the running cost during that time. Since I'm working from home I do only 16.000 km/yr and before I did twice as much as was commuting everyday (+100km/day). I always buy cheap Diesels and run them into the ground - I never got the people chasing the newest and best cars, because this new cars are usually the once I drive past when the broken down at the roadside.

Good to see a car enthusiast review Toyota and Lexus because most don't because they are "too boring". As you get older, one wants quality and reliability and not ridiculous service and repairs bills that Audi/VW, Mercedes and BMW present you with. "Boring" becomes sensible. I only look at Japanese; Toyota, Lexus, Honda and Mazda because they seem a better proposition as an outright buy and I avoid EU products as a Brexit supporter and the way the EU Buro-craps treated and still treat the UK.

I do appreciate your reviews of the "mythical" Lexus products. That is to say, the crazy ones (LFA, LC 500), the historical one (the first LS generations), or he misunderstood ones (GSF, SC 430). So, it is peculiar to see you complement so profusely an SUV. You could have showered you constructive enthusiasm over an IS 450h+, except Lexus has decided to become an almost exclusive SUV brand in Europe. Irony of history, in the USofA, where the SUV plague took off, you still can get an IS. Not for long, admittedly, as this valiant competitor to the Teutonic hegemony in the "sports saloon" segment will probably be made redundant there too. But for now, you can even get a crazy IS 500 in North America, which is the closest you will be able to be nowadays to the mythical ISF. But in Europe ? No, Sir. You still have the LS (that nobody buys except the Japanese ambassadors) and the uselessly massive ES (that only a gerontologist would buy). So, if one day, you get your hand on an IS500 import, or even a good old ISF, hell, even the baroque IS 300 SportCross, please enchant our sad SUV filled lives with a review ! p.s. : comparing the build quality of a DS to a Lexus. Well, if this isn't delightful English humour at it's most absurd, you can fetch me two pencils and a pair of underpants. The only use of the Déesse is to block Polestar from entering the French car market...

Lexus have offered me their ISF to test soon, just need the weather to pick up. I also want to do another LS when I can. LFA I'm still trying to persuade them to let me have a go...

I found the prices and specs on the Lexus UK site two three weeks ago. The confusing thing is that they have an F Sport with Takumi pack and a version Takumi too.

Thanks for this awesome review.. How did you find the black interior on the F Sport trim you were driving?? Did it feel claustrophobic? I’m considering the car and trying to decide the interior color and I’m not a fan of red interior in my car.. so that leaves me with black as an only choice( if I want to go with F Sport). Thanks In advance!

I was wondering why Lexus would ask a petrol head to review one of their cars, a risky strategy but in this case I think they got away with it scratch that they made a great call😉 Always a well balanced review, when Lexus get passed this CVT phase I might pop down to Lexus Poole for a look see😉

Hi. No experience of a hybrid and I`m looking at the 2022 NX350h, Jay. What is max cruising speed in EV mode and what kind of range can I expect in EV mode? Thank you.

In the 350 not much further than a few miles pure EV, that's what the 450 is for. Max cruise in EV is 83

This is just a Rav 4 with a different body ? Same drive train same overall dimensions, just more expensive? Genuine question as you seemed to skip the rebadging exercise in the video . Perhaps Lexus don't like talking about it ?
