If the TX 350 came in a Hybrid I would get it. I have a 21 Highlander Platinum Hybrid and I will soon be in the market again. I guess the Grand Highlander limited Hybrid or Platinum Hybrid Max will be the decision I will need to make.
I was disappointed in the TX hybrid option (only 6 seats?!) but the Grand Highlander currently takes from 6-12 months to get, and after looking on several message boards there are so many issues that I don’t want to deal with. I’m still considering this or the new Mazda.
@ultrasummit Posdibly, but if I wanted to spend 80k, I would seriously look at the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus. Especially with what they have done with their 48' entertainment display cluster.
Crazy how car prices went insanely higher up in the last 10 years like double.... and my salary increases only 15% 😅 and if i have 80k i will not buy this TX.... 😑
Wish there is a market crash to reset everything, but I don’t think that will because there is president election next year. Prices are really out of hand.
Very helpful! I'm looking for a Grand Highlander type vehicle that's quieter and softer riding than a Grand Highlander. Looks like I should go test drive a TX. Thanks!
Seems like a Lexus version of a Ford flex, the Ford has better 3rd row and more storage though and is lower which is awesome for kids and carseats. They should of built it on a car platform like LS500, not just another RAV4 clone
Even though I love everything about the 350, the turbo 2.4 is huge turnoff. Imagine trying to change lanes and having a civic like growl from the engine. 4 cylinder for a 70k 7 seater doesn’t make sense
Overall, a good review but just a suggestion, rewatch your video and see if you notice how often you say, “but also” and “also” in general. It became noticeable to me and would recommend using other ways of saying the same thing to break it up over such a long video.
@@naveenthemachine i can understand but I have owned Toyotas for a long time and became familiar with maintenance (diy) switching to other brand is not in the works. i have 20 and 17 yo Toyotas running like new (knock-knock).

Far from ultimate. More like the ultimate disaster 😂 and I don’t even have to explain how the tx is the joke of the segment compared to any other 3 row suv
@@BostonAutoBlog I’d love to explain it 1. The exterior looks ugly compared to just about anything else such as the x5, x7, gle, gls, xc90, gv80, q7, aviator, MDX, cx90, qx60, xt6, telluride palisade, ev9, Santa Fe, sorento, pathfinder, lc500, grand Cherokee. 2. The powertrain options are just embarrassing. The 350 is as slow as a Toyota corolla or kia rio. The 500h isn’t any faster than a base ford explorer 2.3, base cx90, base MDX, telluride palisade, pilot, pathfinder qx60, xt6 grand Cherokee etc. and it’s still slower than the Explorer st, base aviator, MDX type s, gv80 3.5t. The 550h+ is three things: interesting since it uses a 3.5L v6; confusing since the v6 is only on the phev and not on the other tx models; extremely underwhelming since the performance is identical to the 500h but still significantly slower than the xc90 x5 aviator phev but barely faster than a grand Cherokee 4xe, but the tx cost over 85-100k, and it has less EV range than the xc90. To make things worse, getting a naturally aspirated v6 in general will be significantly more expensive than getting a v6 in any of the competitors where they make their naturally aspirated v6 engines standard or optional like in the xt6 where the v6 is standard on the premium luxury trim. 3. The interior is a complete mess. It looks horrible, cheap, and dated. For starts, no tx offers a leather dashboard, doors, airbag cover, or even wood trim. If you compare the interior of the tx to an MDX, cx90, gv80, aviator, grand Cherokee summit reserve, telluride palisade, qx60, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about 4. The tech is also dated and completely useless. For starts, the infotainment still isn’t as good as its competitors despite being a touchscreen. Next, the electric door handles are something nobody ever asked for. If that wasn’t enough, the touchpad steering wheel heads up display combo is a mess. 5. It lacks so many features compared to the competition. Those missing features include a double wishbone front suspension, air suspension, massaging seats, passenger memory, not enough speakers, removable middle seats like in the pilot / mdx, 4 zone climate control, power rear seats with ottomans, heated or even ventilated 3rd row seats, and hands free driving 6. I will give you that it has a lot of space but unfortunately so does the telluride and palisade and again those two have more features and also an 8th seat. The interior space especially the third row is not much better than the aviator or xc90. But it doesn’t have as much space as a minivan or a full size suv like the Wagoneer 7. Behind the wheel, handling and performance fall behind just about all the competition. Theres no torque vectoring AWD like in the MDX. Sure it rides great but it’s not like the Tx has a new dimension of ride comfort that’s earth shattering. It’s not like other SUVs ride like a bucket of bolts. They ride just as smooth while simultaneously handling better 8. The price tag. The tx350 is a lot more expensive than the MDX xt6 qx60 telluride palisade. And it’s a lot slower than those. The 500h costs 70k and again it’s still slower and handles worse than the MDX type s. The 550h+ will cost 85-100k so it’s likely more expensive than the aviator grand touring or xc90 phev or x5phev. And it doesn’t perform better than those three in any sort of way

You are forgetting the Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave all as big or a bit bigger. Buick is still V6.
