Happy Saturday everyone! If you want a compact luxury SUV that is also a conventional hybrid, Lexus is the only brand in this segment with that kind of powertrain. All other rivals are either PHEV or full EV's and that still gives Lexus a very unique offering in the segment and that's why we consider the hybrid NX 350h to be the sweet spot in the lineup.
I just bought a 2024 Lexus NX350h. Best car I ever had, and I've had Lexuses for the past 20 years. This car is plush, high tech, and has plenty of pep even as a hybrid. Love the 14" touch screen and the heads-up display. I'm getting great mileage, even though I live out in the country and do a lot of highway driving. I can easily get 42mph in city, and often higher.
Hello! I recently purchased a 2025 NX 350h premium. It’s advertised at 38 mpg highway and 41 city. When traveling on the highway, I average 38 mpg. However, during my daily commute around the city, I average about 36 mpg on eco and 34 on normal. The Lexus app tells me I drive excellent and I use premium gas. Can you think of any other reason as to why I’m not hitting the 41 mpg in the city? I live in Louisiana so the weather is far from cold at the present.
@@dr.anniepurrl How many miles are on your car? When mine was new (I got it with 10 miles on it) my mileage wasn't so great. A car begins to get broken in around 500 miles, but not completely broken in until 1,000 miles. My mileage has steadily increased, and now, with 2,000 miles on the car, I often get 40+ mpg even on highway miles, driving in regular mode. I live in a rural area, and to get anywhere city-like, I have to drive about 20 miles at highway speeds. In town, I will put it on eco mode and get better mileage. Like you, I was concerned when I first got the car because it seemed like the mileage was only so-so. But it continues to improve. I also use 91 octane gas exclusively in the car. If your car is still very new, you probably need to give it time. At least that was my experience.
This is the perfect vehicle for retirees, folks with no kids, and discerning adults. It's fuel-efficient, reliable, luxurious, and will move you. I tried last year to get one and seven Texas dealers could not help me. They said I would have to wait 6 to 12 months to get one if I put down a refundable deposit. I told them to kick rocks. Last April, I was lucky and found a 2023 Lexus ES300h Ultra Luxury Trim, with additional options and dealer add-ons below M.S.R.P. We drove 300 miles to get her and traded in my 2014 Mercedes diesel SUV ML350. My wife is a great negotiator. LOL I am averaging 42+ MPG in and around town and on toll roads here in the Houston area.
Great video again 👏🏾 👏🏾 The Lexus NX has had it's best sales since it's original release with this new redesign. It's doing extremely well for itself. It was already a best seller beforehand. Regardless of what the Naveen trolls say... Love my NX 350 FSPORT in ultra sonic blue mica 🥵🥵🔥🔥
Loving my Lexus NX350h! Got the same package on mine. Only difference is I got the white exterior/red interior. Got nothing but compliments from people, including strangers at the gas pump. Again, looks are subjective. So if anyone says it’s ugly 🤷🏻
@@naveenthemachine that's 100% nonsense Naveen. You know that. Lexus is best build carbrand around. Lc and Ls sedan surpass even Bentley, source Autovisie, Autoblog. Leading carmagazines in the Netherlands.
@@avdp9095 the people who think Lexus is the best quality in human history are stuck in the past. Every single brand has come a long way and surpassed what Lexus once was. It happens all the time Just like back then blackberry was the go to choice for smartphones. But now every other brand has come forth and surpassed blackberry.
As a '22 450h+ owner, I will say I am a big fan of the looks but probably at least a bit biased. Really love my car, my only gripe is I wish the seating position was a little lower (I'm over 6 foot). I'd also love an even bigger PHEV battery, but it is what it is. :)
The 2024 Lexus NX 350h AWD is a stylish and eco-friendly SUV that offers a comfortable ride and ample space for passengers and cargo. With its hybrid powertrain, you can enjoy the benefits of both gasoline and electric power, while the all-wheel drive system provides great traction and stability on various road conditions. In addition, the NX 350h AWD comes with a host of advanced safety features and cutting-edge technology, making it a great choice for those seeking a luxurious and reliable vehicle.
Lexus knows what the purpose of their cars are and build exactly that. They don't make everything about performance which compromises the ride quality and fuel consumption. They just stick to their old ways hence their sales are so strong
Every other brand knows the purpose of their cars lol. Other SUVs bring luxury and comfort and ride quality to the table but they also add performance without excessively focusing on performance. A cx5 isnt a performance suv but it’s faster and drives better than the nx350
Customers who buy this suv are looking for a reliable, comfortable vehicle, not a performance car with a harsh and choppy ride. There are many other brands that offer that...
Am I the only person who prefers hood prop stick over hood struts? It's a reliable car and it's not like I am going to open it every few days, and the struts always fail after 6 to 7 years and cost like 200 USD to replace
Very nice SUV, but this model is exactly why I bought my 2024 Toyota Venza XLE. Almost $55K and I bought mine Venza XLE for about $14K less. I'm glad I picked the Venza. Good job on this video.
This would be an excellent car for my wife and I. A pre-owned one maybe 1 or 2 years old would probably be in the high 30k/ low 40k range which is tenable.
Regarding brake torquing, you cannot do that in Toyota/Lexus hybrids with PSD transmission. When you depress both pedals fully, the ECU goes into charge control mode. It is used to diagnose a bad battery cells when viewing live data on scan tool.
I see a woman in her 50's driving this vehicle. She works a govt job, in a high end position, making up to or at at least six figures. Her life is comfortable, not chaotic. She's not looking for excitement.
Hi! Love the review! My 2024 does not have the ability to collapse and expand the Lexus menu while I’m in Apple CarPlay. Do you know if this requires a software update that’s available to the public?
Good Luck finding one; especially a high-end trim and in the colors you want in and out. I tried last year and was told to put down a deposit (refundable $2,000) and wait up to 12 to 16 months. In addition, the 2025 NX350h AWD is going to have better upgrades, so I would get on a list for a 2025 instead of a 2024.
Great looking hatchback! Yes i know manufacturers call them cuvs so that Americans will buy them. The color really shows off the lines. Lexus interiors always look top class.
Sofyan, Thank you for your endorsement of the NX 350H. The people of Canada (Ontario in particular) gave so much money to Toyota to build them here so we really appreciate when folks actually buy them. 😆😆😆
People are discouraged to buy Lexus. as Lexus vehicles are one of most stolen vehicles in GTA. Sales of Lexus have dipped a lot in Peel specifically...
I'd buy an NX made in Japan... There are a few!... And they have better fit and finish than the Canadian ones. Japanese cars made in Japan are the way to go! Keep your grubby Canadian hands off my Lexus! lol
Finally someone highlights the fact that the dash missing some stitching and extra boogie on the passenger side. It was quite a surprise to me that Lexus sort of "downgraded" this 2nd gen NX. I have a facelifted 1st Gen from 2019 and the variety of dash materials and stitching make the 1st gen more upmarket in some ways.
Toyota is renowned for reliability, yet the Rx brand's large front grille appears dated. Honda's Acura brand was once on a similar path, but Acura has now excelled with a beautifully redesigned, aggressively styled aesthetic.

@@naveenthemachineSo Toyota’s sales in the past year don’t indicate they are doing something right? Like sure, Toyotas aren’t really exciting cars and don’t have the latest and greatest features but if people are buying them, surely they are doing something correctly? I’m curious, what is a good a car? Define what a good car is to you, even give an example of an actual car, whatever really just so I can understand you correctly.
@@austin.2716 put it this way Compare a Toyota against any other brand and that other brand would be superior in every way from looks to interior to comfort to tech to interior space to driving experience to ride smoothness to nvh etc Most Toyota’s don’t do any of these well.
AS an owner of a Lexus 2024 350H, the worst thing for me is that the Mark Levinson system drops the bass or blows out above the 52 volume setting, what a piece of crap for the money, Dealership promised a new amp, but has yet to fix after 7 months
Naveen…. You don’t know it yet but when you come home tonight from your shift at Burger King….. your mom traded her Camry in for a new Lexus NX! Time to face the light Naveen!
A good friend of mine chose the Venza Limited over this car a few months back! Both phenomenal cars but the Venza was more than a few thousand dollars cheaper for essentially the same vehicle.
I own both, lol. I love both too. My wife drives the 2024 Venza Limited and I the 2025 NX 350h. As you can guess, both have pros n cons. Lexus NX has an added safety feature(door doesn’t open if cars or bikes get too close), is quicker, has a better infotainment system, better ergonomics, seats are more comfy and paint job seems higher quality. Is it worth 5k difference in price? For some. Can’t forget Lexus dealers treat people better.
The fact it needs Premium fuel is a deal breaker. That is insane these days!! I went with the UX, it’s slightly smaller but not by much and takes regular, and is 10k less. It’s totally usable.
Why do people keep saying that? The manual says it RECOMMENDS using premium. It also says you can you regular! The only trims that requires premium are the ones equipped with the turbos!
If there's anyone barking about a Lexus having the same powertrain as a Toyota i feel for you, there's no such thing as exclusive powertrains these days.
The NX has really come into it's own. Reviewers are really getting jaded. "Hood struts" are not a luxury car feature, they're expected. The used to be present on any and every vehicle on the market. Then came cost cutting.
I just purchased an NX 350h, and overall I'm very happy with it, the exterior, and interior are all to my liking.However,the cargo box of the original car is not big, and this cargo cover blocks a lot of space. It is too fixed and takes up a lot of space. Sometimes I need to pull some tools and things like that, which requires a lot of space. In comparison, I prefer to buy replacements online. The price is not expensive, and it is also a very good choice.
I think if you wanted a more sporty driving small SUV the Acura RDX would give you that for the same price, without having to buy a Porsche or BMW,. The caveat is that the RDX will not get nearly the gas mileage that this car gets. This would be a fantastic car for road trips given the MPG and long range.
I would easily go with this version since I want my next vehicle to be a hybrid which will likely be a Toyota/Lexus. It would also be my third Lexus as I first had a 2017 IS200t F-Sport & currently a 2016 GS350 F-Sport that I bought back in June 2020 with 41k miles, now with 79k miles with no problems so far as expected. I've driven a couple of Lexus hybrids which were the ES300h & UX250h & far preferred them over the gas versions that I've also driven.
Hi Sofyam. This is just a recommendation. Please upgrade your camera. It is low resolution and even streaming at 1440p feels like 720p. Please upgrade it.
First thing said should be that this NX is only for people under 5’9” because it’s not for anyone taller than that. It’s very cramped , no headroom. Not to mention if you’re overweight and wide , forget this car …..
I’ve had mine for almost a year now and it hasn’t gotten boring yet. My previous car was an 2021 Acura TLX and that got boring quick. Boring as in the looks and functionality of the car. Obviously the Acura is more fun to drive but the gas savings are a no brainer for me
Great review! Lexus brand is 👍👍 I was thinking about the plug-in hybrid but I'm hearing that if there is an issue with the hybrid battery, the car will not run even with gas in it. Kinda defeats the purpose of that vehicle type.
...................................... NEVER ...............Ever heard an issue about the Battery (Traction Battery) maybe on other vehicles However Lexus and Toyota have been doing this for Soooooo Long....Heck my 450h+ "F" Sport Battery is even Liquid cooled
When I built it on the website, it makes it look like you don’t have to get the 20 inch wheels, or maybe that’s just with the luxury package that you have to get them
Im on the fence between this and the BMW X3. The NX is really just a nicer Rav4. But I like to keep my cars for 10+ years, so the reliabilty of Lexus keeps pulling me toward the NX over the X3.
............................ Typical of Un-Educated People saying the NX is nothing but a RAV 4......Althought the MOST RELIABLE vehicle on the planner...the LEXUS has 3X's the sound dampening and with the Adaptive Suspension you get a Far better ride than the Dog EORO's
@donaldbanner2185 3x more soundproofing? Maybe on paper, but all the reviewers who take sound readings show they are close. Maybe it's the run flats adding to the noise too. The 350h doesn't have adaptive suspension, that's on the 450. I have 4 Toyotas an love them. I want to love the NX, and will probably get one over the X3, just due to reliability. But aside from a nicer interior, it's almost mechanically identical to the RAV4 powertrain, with slightly bigger electric motors from the RX.
I still think the X3 or GLC are more dynamic lux SUVs, but you can't go wrong with the NX. The NX 450h+ PHEV is also better than the X3 xDrive30e and XC60 Recharge mostly for its long range and smooth operation, but I kind of wish Lexus made a NX 500h F-sport given the RX shares roughly the same architecture and chassis. However if you're keeping cars long term past the lease term, the Lexus rises to the top mostly for its reliability and long term dependability
.............................. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm " more dynamic " if by this you mean the Dynamic feeling youi have by going to the Service Department & watching you money literally disappear by $25K the first of ownership / Depreciation I might agree....HOWEVER the Dynamic big edge is to the LEXUS 450h+ "F" Sport model with the Blacked out Chrome , Carbon Fiber interior and exterior where any gloss black was & Large Functional Black Open Air trim on the front Fascia....... Beautiful / Sporty Circut Red and black inserts on seats & a 0-60 time of 5.5 via Road and track ( actually it is even quicker out of the hole...I chirp All four tires because of three elec TorQ Motors.
Thank for you review the number 1 selling point on this vehicle is the gas mileage . But the long term cost of owning the nx350h is horrible to replace the hybrid battery’s the current cost in 2024 is 6500 bucks that is not including the labor and taxes you might say but the batteries last at least 10 years that’s not entirely true the batteries last anywhere between 100000-200000 miles people are driving over 100000 miles before owning their cars at the 7-8 year mark’s and you have the cost of inflation and the increase in labor cost as the years go by so the Long term cost of owning a hybrid is not favorable you could be looking at a 10,000 dollar fix give or take.
@OkinawaAdventure-un8om I found the NX to be a bit tight. I'm looking forward to the Venza replacement, the Crown Signia but I understand it will be very expensive.

I own both, lol. I love both too. My wife drives the 2024 Venza Limited and I the 2025 NX 350h. As you can guess, both have pros n cons. Lexus NX has an added safety feature(door doesn’t open if cars or bikes get too close), is quicker, has a better infotainment system, better ergonomics, seats are more comfy and paint job seems higher quality. Is it worth 5k difference in price? For some. Can’t forget Lexus dealers treat people better.
The fact it needs Premium fuel is a deal breaker. That is insane these days!! I went with the UX, it’s slightly smaller but not by much and takes regular, and is 10k less. It’s totally usable.
Why do people keep saying that? The manual says it RECOMMENDS using premium. It also says you can you regular! The only trims that requires premium are the ones equipped with the turbos!
i have an nx350h and have been using regular gas with no problems
Recommended, not required. Most people say the performace is the same either way.
Wrong but okay
Can you please do a review of the 2025 Lexus NX 350h in Orange 🙏🏽
Hey quick question does nx 450+ qualified for the tax credit?
If there's anyone barking about a Lexus having the same powertrain as a Toyota i feel for you, there's no such thing as exclusive powertrains these days.
The NX has really come into it's own. Reviewers are really getting jaded. "Hood struts" are not a luxury car feature, they're expected. The used to be present on any and every vehicle on the market. Then came cost cutting.
My mom got the plug in version of this suv very fuel efficient and quiet
On your mom’s plug 🔌 in version how much gas mileage is her nx getting on average. I had wondering because Iam looking at hybrid and plug in models.
@@victoria19853 close to 500 miles
I love my Nexxus
I just purchased an NX 350h, and overall I'm very happy with it, the exterior, and interior are all to my liking.However,the cargo box of the original car is not big, and this cargo cover blocks a lot of space. It is too fixed and takes up a lot of space. Sometimes I need to pull some tools and things like that, which requires a lot of space. In comparison, I prefer to buy replacements online. The price is not expensive, and it is also a very good choice.
You should have gotten the RX
trim?
Looks like it’s on tippy toes. Why? It needs a 2 inch drop in ride height and it would handle so much better.
I think if you wanted a more sporty driving small SUV the Acura RDX would give you that for the same price, without having to buy a Porsche or BMW,. The caveat is that the RDX will not get nearly the gas mileage that this car gets. This would be a fantastic car for road trips given the MPG and long range.
Lexus always looks better than comparable makes. They look best when they drive past the repair shop and in this case the gas station too.
I would easily go with this version since I want my next vehicle to be a hybrid which will likely be a Toyota/Lexus. It would also be my third Lexus as I first had a 2017 IS200t F-Sport & currently a 2016 GS350 F-Sport that I bought back in June 2020 with 41k miles, now with 79k miles with no problems so far as expected. I've driven a couple of Lexus hybrids which were the ES300h & UX250h & far preferred them over the gas versions that I've also driven.
Ugh 😣 a CVT. My only issue
Hi Sofyam. This is just a recommendation. Please upgrade your camera. It is low resolution and even streaming at 1440p feels like 720p. Please upgrade it.
First thing said should be that this NX is only for people under 5’9” because it’s not for anyone taller than that. It’s very cramped , no headroom. Not to mention if you’re overweight and wide , forget this car …..
I am 6'" and plenty of room * try adjusting the seat!
Probably a big dude @@donaldbanner2185
@@donaldbanner2185 well at 6” tall you can fit in the glove box . And at 6’ tall my head hits the headliner .
I'm 5'10" and find the car tight feeling
I'm 6'3 and could fit reasonably well in an 09 IS. Do you think I could fit well into this SUV? Lol
I've been looking at the NX and Cadillac XT4. I'm going to be deciding this week.
Get the xt4. It’s way better looking and likely cheaper than the nx
@naveenthemachine thank you for your feedback. By the way the XT4 they showed me is 47k.
I’ve had mine for almost a year now and it hasn’t gotten boring yet. My previous car was an 2021 Acura TLX and that got boring quick. Boring as in the looks and functionality of the car. Obviously the Acura is more fun to drive but the gas savings are a no brainer for me
I love your review, so nice review, but this looks like an old car even though the 2024 model didn't change
I'd definitely buy a 350h F sport..
Is the eCVT annoyingly buzzy?
Nope. Been driving ours for the last 12 months. This is not anything like the traditional CVT
Ok great. good to know that it’s nothing like the RAV4
Lexus is getting a bit too german in how they are nickel and diming over individual options.
Venza is a better value !!! I have all that plus heated wheel . Only thing my roof don’t open ..
Great review! Lexus brand is 👍👍
I was thinking about the plug-in hybrid but I'm hearing that if there is an issue with the hybrid battery, the car will not run even with gas in it. Kinda defeats the purpose of that vehicle type.
...................................... NEVER ...............Ever heard an issue about the Battery (Traction Battery) maybe on other vehicles However Lexus and Toyota have been doing this for Soooooo Long....Heck my 450h+ "F" Sport Battery is even Liquid cooled
The 18" wheels look and perform better than these 20" wheels...
I wish the 20" wheels were optional on these higher trims.
When I built it on the website, it makes it look like you don’t have to get the 20 inch wheels, or maybe that’s just with the luxury package that you have to get them
Im on the fence between this and the BMW X3. The NX is really just a nicer Rav4. But I like to keep my cars for 10+ years, so the reliabilty of Lexus keeps pulling me toward the NX over the X3.
............................ Typical of Un-Educated People saying the NX is nothing but a RAV 4......Althought the MOST RELIABLE vehicle on the planner...the LEXUS has 3X's the sound dampening and with the Adaptive Suspension you get a Far better ride than the Dog EORO's
Get an x3. If you care about reliability just get a rav4. It’s the same car only cheaper
@donaldbanner2185 3x more soundproofing? Maybe on paper, but all the reviewers who take sound readings show they are close. Maybe it's the run flats adding to the noise too. The 350h doesn't have adaptive suspension, that's on the 450. I have 4 Toyotas an love them. I want to love the NX, and will probably get one over the X3, just due to reliability. But aside from a nicer interior, it's almost mechanically identical to the RAV4 powertrain, with slightly bigger electric motors from the RX.
@@fr8doggr551 and the nx needs premium fuel for high mpg🤣
If you keep it for 10+ years you also need to like the look of the vehicle.
I'm happy that people are finally clowning Naveen lmao.
That’s pretty weird. You must really love Toyota. 🥴
@@G-Rated okay Koreaboo
I still think the X3 or GLC are more dynamic lux SUVs, but you can't go wrong with the NX. The NX 450h+ PHEV is also better than the X3 xDrive30e and XC60 Recharge mostly for its long range and smooth operation, but I kind of wish Lexus made a NX 500h F-sport given the RX shares roughly the same architecture and chassis.
However if you're keeping cars long term past the lease term, the Lexus rises to the top mostly for its reliability and long term dependability
.............................. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm " more dynamic " if by this you mean the Dynamic feeling youi have by going to the Service Department & watching you money literally disappear by $25K the first of ownership / Depreciation I might agree....HOWEVER the Dynamic big edge is to the LEXUS 450h+ "F" Sport model with the Blacked out Chrome , Carbon Fiber interior and exterior where any gloss black was & Large Functional Black Open Air trim on the front Fascia....... Beautiful / Sporty Circut Red and black inserts on seats & a 0-60 time of 5.5 via Road and track ( actually it is even quicker out of the hole...I chirp All four tires because of three elec TorQ Motors.
The NX is just the size of a new X1, NX backseat is very cramped even for average height passengers
I love the wheels! (Sorry...I know simple and traditional styling isn't hip or cool these days.)
Is it made in Japan??
Some of them are made in Canada and some in Japan.
China lol yes its built in Japan
Im definitely buying nx350h test drive it and is excellent package. I wish 450h+ be cheaper but extra 12000 or 14000 that to much.
Why don't this car have a spare? Sounds crazy for me.
Great review! I only wish you catered for us metric users ;)
Hes the type of person that would complain about a car not being nice enough then when they make the car with better materials he says it's too much😅
Thank for you review the number 1 selling point on this vehicle is the gas mileage . But the long term cost of owning the nx350h is horrible to replace the hybrid battery’s the current cost in 2024 is 6500 bucks that is not including the labor and taxes you might say but the batteries last at least 10 years that’s not entirely true the batteries last anywhere between 100000-200000 miles people are driving over 100000 miles before owning their cars at the 7-8 year mark’s and you have the cost of inflation and the increase in labor cost as the years go by so the Long term cost of owning a hybrid is not favorable you could be looking at a 10,000 dollar fix give or take.
I can never understand why reviewers do zero to sixty tests in cars like this!!!! It's literally, ridiculous.
Still no spare tire? A bit too small for my liking.
Venza Limited has a spare and $10K less
@OkinawaAdventure-un8om I found the NX to be a bit tight. I'm looking forward to the Venza replacement, the Crown Signia but I understand it will be very expensive.
The next model up from NX is the RX, not TX ;)
Yuck 🤢 that infotainment system looks horrible with gloss black, seriously?
Toyota obviously want to sell these - so they haven't given it the ridiculous patch work paint job of the BX4X.
0-69 seconds in 7 seconds in 2024/2025 is just sad, especially for that price.
