    Run-flats are brutal. First thing I did on my Alfa Romeo Giulia was to remove them and put on Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4's. Carry a dedicated flat repair kit and compressor and you will be able to handle any flat. For those time when you have a major blowout, runflats ain't gonna help either. Nothing worse than a luxury vehicle with loud tires.

    personally love the e-latch system…it makes more sense to grab the handle and press the button where your thumb would naturally rest instead of pulling on a door latch and then moving your hand to grab the handle…plus the added pedestrian safety aspect…it is very windy where I live, in the moment it takes to move your hand from the latch to the handle your door gets blown open with force…the e-latch will definitely make a difference as you already have a firm grip on the handle when it releases…

    Hey Zack. I'm the one guy who likes his run flat tires! :) I've been driving a 2019 BMW X3 for 2 and a half years with run flat tires and been very happy to know that I won't be stranded somewhere with a flat tire in the rain, snow or soaring heat. Had two punctures over this period and BMW replaced both at no additional cost to me. (I am paying $15 a month for this free tire replacement feature, but worth it to me.) If it wasn't for the much higher price of run flats, people would love them more! But the function definitely gives piece of mind. And it's not noticeably louder, especially not in the city. Cheers from Vancouver.

    I was waiting for this, thank you! Pre-ordered my NX 350 Turbo AWD F Sport here in Australia and can't wait to test drive it! Also the point about the BMW X3 being better, agreed that BMW offers better handling/driving dynamics. That was one of the other vehicles I shortlisted in this segment but the M40i is super expensive and the other engines are less powerful than the 2.4 Turbo on the NX. The xDrive30i is close to it but costs more - and even more when we add in some packs to get some of the features that are standard on this NX. Sadly, Acura is not available here in Australia. So, looking at the retained value, reliability and ownership costs of Lexus vs BMW, I'd pick Lexus any day! Genesis has worse resale value than BMW as you guys quoted in your GV70 review. I'd go for BMW only if I was filthy rich.

    • @IKhanNot
      @IKhanNot 3 роки тому

      It's because of CAFE standards. They want to get better fuel economy all around so manufacturers are forced to take all sorts of measures to see a reduction in fuel consumption over the entire fleet. You'll notice they use low viscosity oil (0W20), start stop, cylinder deactivation, spare tire delete, automatic decoupling of the AWD system and turbocharging. All of that doesn't benefit the individual customer but lowers the fleet consumption.

      I just want to point out these are prototype models that we were able to drive, something that Lexus and Toyota don't ever allow, they will all be crushed and not sold. Straight pipes may have had some issues with the infotainment screen, we didn't. But, with the chip shortage, it's been difficult for manufacturers. We are just happy we were able to drive one. So things are definitely not perfect in these prototype vehicles, but they aren't the finished product. We can definitely add in temperature control in the backseat, thanks for the tip.

    Oh, I don't know. Just sat in a 2022 NX a few days ago. Raised the car seat to suit my height of 5'7". Still, trying to look over the hood at the road was like trying to look over a mountain. Uhhh. And such a cramped looking cabin. I just walked away. In contrast, the new 2022 ES300h is a delight, so spacious, big trunk, even a spare tire despite being a hybrid. That's the one for me. Too bad, I was so looking forward to the NX. For me, gas mileage is important; it is 44 miles a gallon (USA gallons) for the ES300h. The NX hybrid is pretty darn good at 39 mpg. Awesome mileage for an SUV, I'd say. Lexus cars are hard to come by these days due to the global chip shortage, and dealers give zero discounts now. Some charge thousands more than list price is what the dealer said.

    In our testing, we beat the Lexus-estimated acceleration to 60 mph by a full half-second, hitting 60 in 5.5 seconds versus the quoted 6.0-second time. That's quicker than the other 2022 NX models we've tested, but a 2021 XC60 Recharge reaches 60 in a MotorTrend-tested 5.0 seconds. We haven't yet tested a Q5 plug-in, but Audi estimates its model to be just as quick as the Volvo. In case you wonder, the lighter-weight RAV4 Prime matches the NX450h+'s 5.5-second time to 60.
    This means the NX plug-in hybrid is both the quickest NX money can buy and the slowest SUV in its tiny segment.

    Runflat tires cost more, rougher riding and are not suppose to be repaired when they have a puncher. So if your unrepairable runflat is worn more than 10% you will be forced to buy 4 very expensive tires. Like you said, they did something that no one was asking for.

    only 3 more HP compare to RDX lol, look at the Torque before comparing it to RDX. That's why this Engine will be popular, it's got torque. It feels better than most V6 out there. Perfect engine to me in my opinion. Power, speed, yet still saves gas due to small displacement engine.

    Although I’m not the greatest RAV4 fan... I do, oddly, like this new NX (particularly the base gasoline variant). Compared to an overpriced unexceptional FULLY loaded RAV, this NX seems to be a bit of a bargain. The materials, the technology and the reliability alone justify leaping over to the the Lexus Family. The far to common RAV4 has (and fairly so) become the goto CUV and becoming the one to beat. So... Congratulations Lexus in doing so. Thanks for the video.

      I think when it comes to the performance I must say I quite like the NX 450h Plug in hybrid model. It's got 302 hp despite it being a hybrid vehicle. Couple things I am a bit disappointed with the NX are the relatively smaller digital dash (I believe it's about 7 iniches), and 2nd row seats not reclining, and it again might be my issue only but I wish the NX still had the Lexus badge in the rear of the vehicle instead of just the L E X U S words on the back. I do know other car brands have been doing this on all of their cars or some of their flagship models, but personally in my opinion the rear design of the 1st gen NX looked quite better than the new gen's rear design.

    Nice review. I can’t agree more with Zack on Lexus should bring the actual door release back. And for the price, that’s a tough topic. If you are lucky, you won’t be charged the dealership adjustment. I would go for the gv70 instead of the turbo nx, or the v6 gv70 instead of the phev nx. Boy oh boy, gv70 looks so good.

    • @johnholst
      @johnholst 3 роки тому +1

      I'd take the GV70 as well. It's not really the same, since it rides on a rwd platform and the NX is a really a fancy RAV4. BTW, the GV70 uses it's own 8 speed and not the ZF8 speed.

    I work for Lexus for actually since 1992 when it was introduced in the country and have been service manager I can't say I'm impressed by this vehicle this vehicle belongs having 390 to 400 horsepower and the dash is quirky don't like the shifter either and I don't care for the turbos because they're in my opinion and over the many many years I work for Lexus they will fail and when they fail you have to be ready to Shell about 2,500 out so I don't want a terrible in any car I drive

    On the Lexus Canada site you can compare the different trim levels for the new 2022 NX. For the Executive Package in the 350h model, it comes with ADVANCED REMOTE PARK. It’s the top 350h trim level and the only one with ADVANCED REMOTE PARK. Does anyone know what this does? Is it a self-parking features for parallel parking? Or helps you remotely park the car with your phone app? Thanks!

    No more spare tire = 4 RunOnFlat tires equipped that could last only 30-50k miles and then you will need to pay $1200 - $1600 to get them all replaced ; compared to regular $180/regular tire in the best category that last at least 60k - 80k miles.
