NX SAFETY INNOVATION
All-New Lexus NX honoured for safety innovation.
CLASS-LEADING HYBRID AND PLUG-IN HYBRID POWERTRAINS
Boasting the most advanced Lexus Plug-In Hybrid and Lexus Self-Charging Hybrid powertrains available today, the new NX is more economical and more environmentally friendly than petrol- or diesel- powered mid-size SUVs. The product of over 15 years of experience in pioneering electrification, the Lexus Self-Charging Hybrid supplies the NX 350h with more power and acceleration yet best-in-class economy and emissions.
Extending the Lexus Electrified powertrain line-up, the NX 450h+ sets a new standard for plug-in hybrids. It’s not just the 80 km urban range in EV zero emissions mode, the 306 DIN hp of power and rapid acceleration that impress. It’s the class-leading hybrid efficiency when the battery is depleted, with no sacrifice in boot space or fuel tank capacity.
TAZUNA COCKPIT
The striking ‘Tazuna’ concept that was first showcased on the LF-30 design study has been introduced on the new NX. Created to deliver an exhilarating driving experience by maximizing your contact with the road ahead and steering wheel in your hands, the NX cockpit was inspired by the way riders are connected to their horses through reins (Tazuna).
DRIVE MODE SELECT
Located near the steering wheel, Drive Mode Select allows drivers to choose between Eco, Normal and Sport modes, to maximise the car’s efficiency, dynamism or refinement. As well as Eco and Normal, the new NX F SPORT features additional Custom, Sport S and Sport S+ modes.
Built on our much-acclaimed Global Architecture K-platform, the NX delivers many dynamic improvements, including enhanced grip and responsiveness. A wider tread and a lower centre of gravity result in superb handling and stability. In search of refinement and reduced understeer, Lexus engineers specified laser screw welding, adhesive bonding, roof reinforcements, twin bonnet locks and high-tensile steel strengthening. To save weight, aluminium was used for the wings and bonnet.
To allow for a spacious cabin with 500 litres of luggage space and a low centre of gravity, the NX 450h+’s powerful 18.1 kW lithium-ion battery is installed under the cabin floor. This new battery pack uses 96 high-capacity lithium-ion battery cells, achieving a class-leading combined range of 65 km (80 km in the city) in EV mode. Newly developed for the NX 350h and installed under the rear seats, this lithium-ion battery contributes to both the spacious interior and excellent driving performance. Whilst its lightweight lithium-ion cells improve charging performance, its compactness and cooling system have been optimised.
On All-Wheel Drive models, E-FOUR delivers seamless performance and confident traction over rougher terrain. The innovative E-FOUR drivetrain features the addition of a 54 DIN hp electric motor mounted on the rear axle, which supplies instant torque on demand.
LEXUS SAFETY SYSTEM +
The latest Lexus Safety System + is like having your own co-pilot, keeping you safe in every driving situation, be it in city traffic or on the motorway, in daytime or at night, at intersections, on bends or during lane changes. Using technology that is defining a new era in accident prevention, the upgraded Pre-Collision System, for example, can now detect motorcycles during the daytime and pedestrians at night.
SAFE EXIT ASSIST
Safe Exit Assist uses Blind Spot Monitor to track traffic such as cars and cyclists approaching from behind and where necessary uses e-Latch to keep the door(s) closed, thus reducing door-opening accidents by up to 95%.
MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY
This 7-inch colour TFT (Thin Film Transistor) display is integrated into the main driving instruments and keeps you informed about all key data including safety warnings and navigation directions. For a more dynamic driving experience, the display will also adjust its look and content depending on whether you are in Normal, Eco and Sport mode.
In addition to an immensely strong passenger safety cell, occupant protection is enhanced by eight advanced airbags: Dual-stage airbag and knee airbag for the driver; Single-stage airbag for the front passenger; Centre airbag to reduce contact between the driver and front passenger; Side airbags on the front seats and curtain shield airbags that run the full length of both cabin sides.
NEW SIGNATURE GRILLE
For the latest NX, our designers were determined to create a powerful new look. A more dynamic grille, with an integrated frame, has been developed. As well as contributing to weight reduction, the new design emphasises the car’s dynamic impression. For an intriguing mesh pattern, slender U-shaped components were crafted. Finally, the vertical design of the grille, in combination with triple slits at the bottom, provides enhanced cooling performance.
QUADRUPLE LED BEAMS
These stunning 4-projector LED headlights feature a black surround that conveys a highly distinctive impression. The light is highlighted by the Lexus Signature L-shaped Daytime Running Lights (DRL).
NEW LEXUS BLADE LIGHT
To the rear, a stylish new Lexus signature blade light, with a distinctive L-shaped lighting design, spans the entire width of the new NX. Creating a modern new look, the redesigned LEXUS logo is located at the centre of the vehicle.
The front seats in the new NX have been redesigned to offer top-class accessibility and controllability, as well as excellent support and comforts like heating and ventilation. To provide proper ergonomic support around the waist, a concave shape was created in the seat sides, reducing elbow contact when using the steering wheel and shift lever or using the console lid. Finally, seat side height was kept low to ensure excellent ingress and egress.
As the steering wheel and gearshift can significantly affect the driving experience, designers worked together with a Lexus ‘Takumi’ to thoroughly refine these points of contact. For the steering wheel, special focus was placed on the shape and cross-section to give an excellent feel and enhanced steering stability. The thumb rests and touch-sensitive switches were also redesigned.
A practical 60:40 split folding rear seat comes standard on all new NX models, which allows easy stowage of larger items like racing bikes or surfboards. With all rear seats folded down there is room to carry bulky objects.
PANORAMIC ROOF
Available in combination with roof rails, the impressive panoramic glass roof is now openable too. Providing both extra headroom and sunshine in the cabin, it is fitted with an electric sliding blind to counter intense sunlight. Also available is an electric, tilt and slide glass sunroof adds a feeling of freedom, spaciousness and light to the new NX.
POWER TAILGATE
An exceptionally fast and responsive remote-controlled tailgate ensures convenience, especially when your arms are full of shopping. With the key in your pocket or bag, simply place your foot under the rear bumper to open or close the tailgate.
AC CHARGER PORT
The NX 450h+ is equipped with an AC charging inlet on the right rear-quarter, as well as an onboard charger with 6.6 kW maximum output.
Vehicle data is projected in colour directly onto the windscreen. This larger 10-inch Head-Up Display lets you check navigation, safety features, car information and audio settings without taking your eyes off the road ahead. Its operation is seamless, thanks to touch switches on the steering wheel.
S-Flow intelligently controls the interior climate according to ambient conditions, ensuring excellent fuel economy and optimal comfort for each passenger.
LEXUS LINK MULTIMEDIA
Much faster and easier to use, with improved resolution on both the 9.8-inch (Lexus Link Connect with cloud navigation) and large 14-inch touchscreens (Lexus Link Pro with embedded hybrid navigation), Lexus Link Multimedia is the first system of its kind to use cloud navigation to regularly update your maps and traffic data.
17-SPEAKER MARK LEVINSON® SOUND
Available on NX 350h Luxury and F SPORT grades, the new 17-speaker” Mark Levinson® Premium Surround system is tailored to the acoustic properties of the NX. It delivers a peerless 7.1-channel digital home-theatre experience enhanced by Clari-Fi™ that rebuilds sound lost in MP3 digital compression. For improved sound, the large 25 cm rear subwoofer is concealed in a 20-litre compartment below the luggage deck, rather like a speaker of a home hi-fi system, with no compromise to boot space.
A 10-speaker premium audio system is fitted as standard on all grades. This features an FM RDS tuner, Digital Audio Broadcasting and Bluetooth connectivity and offers greater fidelity with large speakers in the front doors.
SMARTPHONE INTEGRATION
With Android Auto® or wireless Apple CarPlay®, the new NX allows you to easily display and access some of your smartphone’s apps on the 9.8-inch or 14-inch display.
Artificial Intelligence and the cloud work together in the clever Lexus Voice Assistant, which spares you grappling with buttons while you’re concentrating on the road ahead. This newly developed “Hey Lexus” voice assistant understands natural language and the context of statements such as “I’m hungry” or “I’m cold” and can even recognise which passenger is speaking. You can activate vehicle features like ambient lighting or search the Internet without taking your hands off the wheel.
You can charge compatible smartphones or other electronic devices using the inductive wireless battery charger. 50% faster than before, it is conveniently positioned, with a handy storage compartment underneath. To keep your devices charged and connected, the NX features four USB sockets (Front: 1xA-type + 1xC-type, Rear: 2xC-type).
Our aim is to make your experience of owning a Lexus car truly amazing. As part of this we offer bespoke services that look after your needs and the needs of your car. These benefits include:
