Engines
Opening the range is the Lexus NX250, using a 2.5-litre non-turbo four-cylinder petrol engine, producing 152kW and 243Nm, and powering the front wheels through an eight-speed conventional automatic transmission to deliver a claimed combined fuel consumption of 6.9L/100km.
The NX350 is fitted with an all-new 2.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine, sending 205kW and 430Nm to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission. A combined fuel consumption figure for the new engine has yet to be published.
Making up a majority of the range is the NX350h, using a 2.5-litre non-turbo four-cylinder petrol engine mated to a hybrid-electric system, producing a combined total of 179kW in two- and all-wheel drive guise.
While the combustion engine develops a maximum torque output of 239Nm, the front electric motor peaks at 270Nm and the all-wheel drive variant can produce up to 391Nm, giving a sizeable amount of assistance.
Finally, the range-topping NX450+ benefits from its larger battery pack and plug-in hybrid capabilities to provide a combined system output of 227kW, thanks to its 136kW/227Nm 2.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine, 134kW/270Nm electric motor on the front axle and 40kW/121Nm motor on the rear axle.

The NX250, NX350 and NX450+ are only available in a single variant – Luxury for the NX250 and F Sport for the NX350/NX450+ – while the NX350 can be optioned in either Luxury, F Sport, or Sports Luxury grades.
