I own an 2022 NX 450h+, still love it. It’s basically a well built, comfortable EV 95% of the time, without need to rely on public charging network on road trips.

I own a 2022 NX 350h and love it. . The self charging hybrid is superb. . Uses EV around town and petrol on a long journey. No charge points required, and no range anxiety. Perfect combo ! ❤

Great updates! I love the NX and the overtrail is super attractive to me.

Why is it that the US always seems to get the lesser “crappier” version of cars. Like the new Corolla in Europe has a full 10in screen and a full sized digital cluster

We have the plug in, magnificent car. Build quality superb and very very efficient, so much better than the German brands.

Early for 2025 news on the NX. Curious about 2025 RAV4.

You heard here first… Kirk likes wood!!! 😂

I liked the black and white leather interior they had previously, this replacement all white is good too. Lexus should offer the bespoke option they have on the LBX in Japan available on all their models and globally. As for the Overtrail version, it is a nice addition but not enough has been done to make it rugged enough. They should have changed the bumpers to improve approach and maybe departure angle (think previous gen NX for US market) and increased the height clearance by minimum an inch or two. Now I know this is not really intended for off-roading but as least look the part like the RAV4 Adventure or Subaru Wilderness

overtrail looks pretty good inside out, especially that wood, i would love to see some green upholstery (like some GX part are from green alcantara) 5:04 i would prefer dark a-b-c pillars and roof

When is lexus updating their sedans? Any news on that?

That 4th light in front of the triple beams is the cornering/steering light. I have it on my ES it only comes on under 15mph

Simply best in class

Drove my sis in laws fully loaded ‘24 RX350h this past weekend. Lexus really does beautiful interiors, it was a serene and comfortable car to be in. Didn’t care for the sound of the 4 cyl engine when it was working hard but it’s a fair trade off for the excellent mpg’s. My only real gripe with Lexus and especially Toyota is the quality of their screens and clear plastic cover for the instruments…even Hondas have better quality in this one area. They always have fine little scratches that show in sunlight. The touch screen should be tempered glass or high quality polycarbonate. I believe she paid about $73k for her car and after a couple months the screen already has fine lines all over it from her wiping it off with a microfiber cloth. My ‘22 Tesla M3P screen still looks new. My old F30 335i screen never showed any scratches either. Even the clear lenses in my ‘18 Infiniti Q50RS stayed looking pretty fresh for the 3 yrs I had it. Toyota/Lexus just seems to overlook this area in particular and it triggers my OCD when I’m in one lol.

It seems Toyota and Lexus r going to have Overtrail for every model. Still major issue is waiting times.Thanks Kirk

Wish we could have a black headliner in the hybrid for black leather like the non-hybrid does.

I like wood in cars. 👍

If they want to keep sale numbers and profitability, new IS can be in the worst case a hybrid, not boring, expensive and limited vacuum cleaner.

I feel like lexus is limiting some common features for their model refresh 😅

What they should do is add f-sport trim to a hybrid model, like in the rest of the world.

I like the new NX way more than the new RX even though it is not as luxurious.

Let's pray they update the IS!!

Overtrail 🎉in NX is awesome!! 🎉

Kirk, do you think the IS refresh would come for the 2025 MY or 2026 (if unveiled this year)

I can confirm that the Overtrail is NOT an available option when ordering a 2025 NX in DealerDaily at least in the USA. The biggest change I see is the 20" wheels are available in the Premium again. Copper Crest is available on regular NX and NX F-Sport.

I have the 22 NX350h and have noticed a suspension issue where it will bottom out in front going over speed bumps. Hoping 2025 models can handle speed bumps. More quietness is welcome

Love my 2016 ultrasonic blue mica but would love to see a lime green NX 350 F Sport for 2025!

Does the all wheel drive model come with all weather tires?

Always great content,Hope they stop using run flat tires

Drives me crazy that they removed the F Sport badge on the rear 😡 maybe it’s just me but looks incomplete.

The NX doesn’t seem fit for off-road. I like the wood.

I think black wood is ok but any brown woods in a car remind me of my grand parents cars especially the fake wood from their 70s to 80s cars. Gross. I got to sit in a new GX and I actually liked that it didn't have wood or too much piano black surfaces, gave it a more premium look to me. However, I do still think manufacturers should offer wood interior options for the top luxury trims because it seems like a lot of older buyers like that.

I just picked up a 2024 Premium trim. Wish I saw this first. Zero down 935 monthly payment

I have the ‘23 350h, looks like the get rid of most of the black plastic interior

Would be nice to hear some new IS news soon🤞.

When will Lexus announce the 2025 Lexus es 350? You do predict there will be a redesign? I’m waiting for it or debating if I should just settle for a 2022-2023.

Stunning looking mini beast ❤

I have not heard good things about run flat tires that the NX 350 has. Heard by recent owners the ride is stiffer and that the ride is louder with the run flat tires. I would rather have good regular Michelin tires with a spare tire in the back instead of a bunch of compartments under the rear floor cover.

the current Gen of NX is still using the 4th THS system right? the new UX claimed using 5th Gen THS.

the bamboo steering wheel feels insanely good

Hey Kirk, do you think the LX refresh will bring an overtrail version with a potential hybrid and just 5 seats? Also, it's not fair that the GX overtrail models get EKDSS, but the LX doesn't get anything, so hopefully, Toyota rectifies that with an overtrail LX

Overtrail NX? what on earth

Yes I would love to add wood in my future GX overtrail

Where is that 12 inch digital gauge cluster. Why you got it on the RAV 4 but not the NX even though it has a facelift.

Expecting midterm update. NX F and RX grill

Thank you for the update! I was interested in the 450h+ but no panoramic roof and basic sound system? Yikes! So much money and you get a better roof and stereo in the RAV4 Prime! Wondering, are they offering the better stereo system in the 450h+?

Did they solve the high-voltage cable corrosion issue on the NX hybrids?

Does this Over Trail model get a spare wheel to actaully be able to take it off the asphelt?

They might as well call it the Airplane edition. About as realistic as driving the NX off road.

Is there any chance of an F sport hybrid in the 2025 NX?

Kirk, The NX 'Over Trail' needs an upgrade to the TNGA-F platform so we can have the compact Land Cruiser we want.😉🤣

In the US press release issued today, Lexus did not mention anything about improved handling/quietness. However, they confirmed that the overall height and ground clearance both increased vs. the 24 models. I wonder if this means there was a change in the suspension. For Japan, Lexus touted the improvements they made in handling/quietness. I am trying to find out if those changes are also on the US models. The change in height/ground clearance make me think (hope?) the US models were also changed/improved. I was about to buy a 24, but would wait for a 25 if it had improved handling/quietness.

Is it same price as 2024? We have a 2024 on reserve refundable $1,000 payment but I'm sure we can just decline and opted to wait for this one

They are upgrading the screen size because many of the 9.8" out of Japan are scratched, from the factory, near the start button! :-(

What about the LS?? any updates or new models?

Isn't there ink dipped wood in the GX along with faux wood or is it all faux wood

The top model 450h+ F Sport is same price as the BMW X3 M40i with the B58 engine though. That's crazy.

Still no 120v AC 1500 watt outlet like the RAV4 in the NX?

Good news on the full pano roof, but still no full MID? 😢

What about Lexus es350?

will the NX overtail come has a PHEV so we can use room mode and camp out ?

Nice

Moon Desert is pretty rough...it's like if Lexus made military vehicles. Also, who is taking their Lexus off road to the extent that it needs to look like it's an off-road vehicle?

They should upgrade the NX with the 500h setup. And then 550h to the RX.

Any news on the ES? ES 300H needs to be all-wheel-drive...been waiting for years for it to be all-wheel-drive, still nothing. Hopefully, if it gets a bit of refresh, it will be 4-wheel-drive and why the hell we can't put the back seats down...

Any idea if the 2025 Lexus NX 450h+ will have a Mark Levinson option?

Would like see Nebula gray color added

It would be nice if Lexus and Toyota cars were really made in Japan. I understand the car would cost more, but supposedly better built and as a consumer, you get your money out of it in the long run.

Ignorant question - do all current Lexus NX models have Homelink and memory driver seats?

I like the wood everywhere but the steering wheel. It gets uncomfortable on long trips.

i drove own, a very fun car.

Biggest change is colour. No chrome due to be not eco friendly 😂

Team Sailor Moon Desert !

I like wood and a cd player...really!

Got mine on order.. 2 years 😢

Moon desert, Earth, Baby begie. same thing...

We call this colour “Baby Shit Brown” in Australia….

Not much of a change.

................. Any Model would LQQK Substantially BETTER IMO.... if the front fascia is " F " Sport with the Large Gloss Black air intakes & Black Chrome w Gloss black spoke mag/rims....... I personally LIKE the Circut Red with Black Inserts (very Sporty) interior!....LQQK's GREAT with Atomic Silver or White exterior!

Can I get some clarification? For the improvements, do they apply to 2024 MY? Lexus's press release does not say it explicitly, and I read it on another site saying it's for 2024 MY.

Thanks for the info Kirk.. But, of course, Lexus did NOT address the most critical upgrade that the NX and RX really needed.. Right now the NX and RX have extremely poor outward visibility in all directions.. This is so important for driving safety. In fact, unfortunately, most Lexus and Toyota models have this major problem.. To fix this Toyota and Lexus really need to raise the rooflines about 3" to 4" (inches) in the NX and RX and on most models.. That would not only help with outward visibility, but also make the cabin feel more comfortable and NOT give the driver and passengers that "closed in" and cramped feeling.

Everyone knows that color is Cosmic Clay, cmon now 😂

Nice, I jus hope they Fixed the Driver side door mirror glass🙄Which Lexus Claims their is No Fix. I say BS!! Well, this is what happens when u buy a New from ground up car...🙂🙃

Did I miss the engines for 25?

they should add a spare tire like rav4 otherwise it’s useless

The RX is not “enormous” 😂. I’m prob the only one that doesn’t Earth color - looks like a new beige to me. I thought Overtrail is only for Bof suv’s…

Tried for a year to get an NX350H, after 3 price increases and 14 months I gave up...got my deposit backm

Lexus is taking Mazda carbon turbo color 😂 Zircon Sand

Wood 🤮🤮🤮

Nx or Rav4 prime?

Great video, Kirk. I am with you on the wood interior. It’s why I still keep my 2014 ES. It just feels like Lexus has driven away from putting in a lot of wood interior. I really miss their older build quality as compared to the new ones.

The NX seems a bit small. And I dislike run flat tires

The NX could use more storage space.

I can’t believe Lexus is so cheap in providing some very basic features on this car unless you buy the most expensive upgrade although even the basic ones are supposed to be ‘luxurious’ too and they are very expensive too! I’m talking very basic stuff all other much cheaper cars have these days such as remote engine running, seat ventilation in HOT countries, a decent sized screen around 12 inches AT LEAST, projector on screen. These ARE VERY BASIC STUFF TO HAVE!!! You must have more and more for the higher models. I’m so very disappointed and I assure you Lexus that ppl are choosing other car manufacturers just for these small stuff you can easily add and I’m one of them.

It is too similar to Rav4. They must differentiate more atleast the interior.

Like my '22 450H+, but it's not perfect. Still want a spare! Oh, and better RF performance between phone & car would be very helpful. And I like wood trim.

Not a fan of Lexus doing away with wood trim.

Great, the Overtrail trim is just beginning to make a name for itself in the new GX and Lexus is already diluting it by placing it in a vehicle without any offroad pretensions 🤦🏽 This trim should have been added to the LX instead. And I agree that the herringbone wood trim looks good. Put that on the TX, Lexus!

Looks like they copied some of Mazdas

The 2025s are out

THEY NEED TO PUT SOMETHING ON THAT RUBBERY LOOKING DASH. This new lexus interiors looks like Toyota.
