Brand’s first luxury crossover, the Lexus NX is produced by Toyota’s luxury division and features a Lexus-specific 2.0-liter gasoline turbo engine. They have put two powertrain options in the US: afore-mentioned NX 200t turbo engine and Toyota’s NX 300h efficient hybrid unit. The US market will also offer NX 200t F Sport. The NX, being the first gambit offered by Lexus, will definitely have to face rivalry in luxury crossover arena captured by Audi Q3 and BMW X1. For that purpose, the Lexus continues to rock by its synergetic design language, gaping spindle grille, and ‘horny’ LED headlamps along with swoosh mark lights exemplify this. The arches house 17-inch (optional 18) standard wheels. As for hard metallic surfaced interior, knee pads, adjustable seating, Human Machine Interface, Wireless charging tray for mobile charging, Touch interface, Blind spot monitors are some of its many bold expressions. This compact SUV is kind of a perfect companion to cross the boundaries. The NX is going to make its debut in Beijing Motor Show next week.
