I took a test drive of the 550h yesterday, the hybrid F Sport 3 version. I’ll appreciate any expert advice on the following problem. First, the brakes had a weird vibration when pressed down lightly at stop lights or turns in a normal city drive. It was not a smooth plush or a normal press down like in normal cars. It vibrated as if on a pebble road or there’s some mechanical problem inside. Then I asked the sales guy to drive and check while I sat on the passenger seat. On the passenger seat the floor had the same disturbing vibrating that cannot be termed comfortable at all. Finally upon parking back at the dealership the car cabin filled with a significant smell of burning and there was quite a bit of noticeable smoke out from the bonnet. This car was brand new, only about 30km on the odometer. Salesman said some other customers who had bought the car also complained about the burning issue but it probably subsided 0:13 eventually. I never had such an experience of many a brand new cars I’ve purchased. Is this a one car issue? I did not expect this from Lexus. PS. I also test drove a gas version, 400km driven new car but no such issues there. I welcome and look forward to your advice.

I think it was a mistake for them to try and make this a sporty trim. They could have spent that extra money on an interior that actually feels luxurious and put the panoramic roof as baseline instead of only in the luxury editions. Lastly, I think they should have put the hybrid engine in the tx 350 as baseline. Who wants 15k cheaper grand highlander beating them off the line?

[@normanli7085]

Or yet, even the previous gen RX 450h v6 hybrid as well. You get good fuel economy, over 300 horsepower, and you still have the buttery smooth powertrain too

Agreed on all points. If Lexus already scrimped with the exterior changes, they should have really spiffed up the interior. The 350h with standard eAWD should also have been the base trim.

@joshuaychung I wouldn't say it's the same car, but it's close. The drive train is definitely better for the price, though

[@dreambuilder1975]

The price increase from choosing the gasoline-only option to upgrading to a hybrid seems excessive, approximately $10,000. Unless you strongly prioritize the smoothness at low speeds, this cost doesn’t seem justified by the benefits of the hybrid system. For typical annual driving distances of 10,000-12,000 miles, a premium of around $3,000 would be more reasonable.

[@occckid123]

Imagine driving 100k miles a year though? The saving a is astronomical. The v6 hybrid may outlast the turbo also. Possibly...

[@cultofmodernism8477]

The hybrid Max should be the base engine at this price. A 2.4L 4 banger is not appropriate for a car this size.

[@normanli7085]

​@cultofmodernism8477 honesty, if the TX has the 3.5 V6 as the plug-in hybrid powertrain, they should have used the previous gen RX 450h as the base instead of a turbo 4 without hybrid. That would better justify getting a TX over a GH

Body cladded Toyotas, with here and there halo car, and a longer option list is all they offer nowadays. It will dilute the brand sooner or later.

When I drove the RX again the same day it was apparent which was the better vehicle... its Also more money............ It was no contest especially with the Infiniti, it really disappointed me as I was considering buying one... I looked at one of these TX at Lexus recently.. Too big for me, I dont need that size anymore as my kids are grown up, the RX for me is perfect, nimble, quick, smallish size even though Im 6'5" tall, it works great for me.. There is an issue with the fuel tank size, you run out of fuel and it says zero KM remaining, so you fill up, here in Canada its a 65 litre tank (17.1 gallons US) and you only get 45 litres before it clicks off... I dont understand this 20 litre discrepancy.. Overall the TX and RX are very similar, the seats are great, super comfy and sporty as well..

@@KevLEXodus wrong on the power. The power output is overrated. I think it makes less power than Lexus is claiming. An MDX type s has less power than the tx500h but it’s significantly faster. A ford explorer is significantly faster than any tx. A Lincoln aviator that’s not a performance suv is faster than the tx500h f sport performance Who cares about fuel efficiency at this point? Do you see people in v8 durangos whining about mpg as if it even matters? No It has a lot of room but so does a kia telluride Hyundai palisade Chevy traverse Buick enclave etc

Who is this Naveen everyone is talking about? Im guessing this person knows nothing about cars

[@naveenthemachine]

Gee I wonder who naveen is LOL😂

[@twfinc6855]

yes hes an armchair warrior making his opinion on every lexus review that comes out... Funny how the professional reviewers all say its a nice car for its segment ... This reviewer even says it should making it to the TOP of your list.. refinement quiet, handling, but NOPE other dudes from their chairs know more than the professionals lol... Experts everywhere, I SUGGEST ACTUALLY DRIVING ONE !!

[@naveenthemachine]

@@twfinc6855 the driving experience is nothing to write home about Even if you drive it you’ll still be disappointed when compared to others

[@samihookahcorp2802]

Tx base model is a gas killer, got mine in November, the most i got is 15 miles per gallon

[@_maze_4733]

I prefer the X7

"One of the best systems in the business" scrolls left & right with massive stutter lol state of youtube reviews these days.

That does not look like a LED rear turn signal

[@daronkendrick]

The Tx is a nice looking car, but just very mediocre for its price point. Everything is well made and put together, but from an interior standpoint it seems very underwhelming. A more upscale looking dashboard would have done wonders for this interior along with more leather colors.

[@naveenthemachine]

The whole car is so underwhelming 😂 I predicted this was gonna happen and I’m so glad once again the biggest Toyota hater (me) was right

[@itshadouken]

We test drove several Grand Hilanders, all the way up to Platinum. Not impressed whatsoever. We had come from testing X5 and X7, the Grand Hilanders just felt cheap by comparison, plus horrible driving dynamics. The leather (which I assume faux) felt like a plastic wrap over styrofoam. Other Toyotas are way nicer, hopefully the Lexus is as well.

[@andersonrodriguez8258]

Which other Toyotas are nicer?

[@itshadouken]

@@andersonrodriguez8258 4Runners, Land Cruisers (all models) and RAV4’s

[@twfinc6855]

you felt a grand highlander was cheap by comparison? Did you look at the price tags?? I looked at a X5 before buying a RX500h.. it was just too big for me, and the X3 wasnt big enough.. Felt a bit cramped, the RX I got was 84k canadian... the X5 was 115k... No comparison really ... the X5 was very nice, stiched leather seats, massage etc... I think it was quicker than the RX but the RX is quick enough... the TX im sure is slower than my RX as its larger... It comes down to price tag... Highlander to X5 and X7... Well totally different ballgame..

[@naveenthemachine]

@@andersonrodriguez8258none of them 😆

[@tolu.a9725]

Great car but Lexus failed in utilizing the second row. Some of us prefer a bench seat in the second row instead of captain's chair and in the Hybrid trims. I want to put grandma, grandpa, uncle and my 2kids in the same SUV instead of putting 2cars on the road when they visit me🤷🏾‍♂️.. There's no difference in the current 5seater SUV to a 6 seater, it needs to be a 7-8seaters and that's where the beauty of bench seats in the second row comes in.. 🤦🏾‍♂️🚶🏾‍♂️

[@MrEllis2007]

My ford explorer has better features i wanted a lexus so bad but ill wait

[@naveenthemachine]

Keep your Explorer. It’s far more exciting than the Lexus.

[@tombrown8443]

My god...lexus needs to get their stuff together. Their interior esp infotainment system looks so cheap. I own IS350 and Rx350 but theyve been milking same interior design for years and now they come with this cheap looking lcd screen with plastic everywhere. its sad when Kia makes better interior

[@Ryan2022]

Kia Hyundai are fools gold my friend. Yes they have incredible modern designs, but it’s hiding the lack of quality materials that they actually use in their interiors.

[@Gabesafish]

“Functional crevice” Giggity.

[@seannguyen593]

Big mistake for removing wood trim. That’s what made Lexus a Lexus.

[@Ryan2022]

I agree with you. It’s a bit too minimalist in person, but looks much better than in the videos.
