2022 Lexus NX

Lexus, Toyota’s upscale sub-brand, is among the few luxury automakers that successfully merges technologically-advanced designs with consistently great reliability. Interiors are quiet and finished with finely-crafted materials. The engines are generally smooth and powerful. Many of its cars and SUVs are available with more fuel-efficient hybrid powertrains. Lexus continues to sell sedans, with its ES, IS, and top-shelf LS models. Most of its SUVs have done well in our testing, including the NX, RX, and TX. The brand’s first all-electric vehicle, the RZ, is a luxury version of the Toyota bZ4X EV. Lexus also sells two-door coupes and convertibles, the RC and LC. Multiple Lexus models have earned Consumer Reports’ recommendation for used cars.

The redesigned 2022 Lexus NX looks much like the outgoing model, but beneath that familiar design is a raft of improvements. The cabin is completely transformed, with a more modern instrument panel, larger infotainment screen, and increased passenger space. There are four powertrains available: a base engine that's less powerful than before, a stronger turbocharged choice, a hybrid, and a plug-in hybrid. A 9.8-inch infotainment screen and wireless phone connectivity is standard, and there is an available 14-inch screen. Both options use Lexus new next-gen multimedia interface. An optional 10-inch head-up display is new, putting key travel information right in the driver's view. Lexus claims that head- and legroom have increased for all passengers. Every 2022 NX comes standard with the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 suite of active driver assistance features, including FCW, AEB with pedestrian detection, BSW, and RCTW. Several previously optional features became standard for 2025 including a power liftgate, auto rain-sensing wipers, and Lexus Intuitive Parking Assist -- a system which warns drivers of approaching objects while parking and can apply the brakes to reduce the risk of a parking collision. Lexus also added two USB type-C ports to the front console.
