2025 Model Lexus NX 350 | Spectacular SUV!

By Kristin Shaw Overview It looks good, its seats are plush and comfy, and it delivers a composed ride. There's little to complain about the 2025 Lexus NX—though that doesn't mean it's the one to have in the subcompact luxury-SUV class. The NX offers four powertrains to choose from, including two traditional gas engines (NX250 and NX350), a hybrid (NX350h), and a plug-in hybrid (NX450h+). Lexus knows hybrids; its parent company is the creator of the Prius, after all. Not only does the NX450h+ PHEV boast an impressive 550 miles of total gas-plus-electric range per the EPA, it's also equipped with the same powertrain setup as the Toyota RAV4 Prime—making 304 horsepower here. It's plenty zippy, but don't mistake the NX for a thrill ride, not even in F Sport trim; that's not its specialty. Rather, Lexus's second-smallest crossover is made for cruising to the store or the office—a fine vehicle for taking a leisurely sightseeing jaunt with friends and family. Buyers seeking more fun behind the wheel should consider one of the NX's rivals, such as the Audi Q3, the BMW X1, or the Mercedes-Benz GLA-class. What's New for 2025? Not much has changed since the NX's big makeover in 2022. Lexus opted for minor updates to the 2025 model, including a striking new finish called Copper Crest that shimmers in a rose gold hue. Macadamia is the new interior color for 2025, available only in the cabin of Luxury-trim models. A wireless charger can be added to any grade, and two additional USB-C ports are tucked inside the front console as standard along with rain-sensing windshield wipers and a power liftgate. Lexus also made its intuitive parking assist with automatic braking standard across the board. Engine, Transmission, and Performance The 2025 NX has four powertrain options. The base NX250 comes with a 203-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder, while the NX350 is powered by a 275-hp turbocharged 2.4-liter. Both send power through an eight-speed automatic transmission. However, the NX250 can be had with either front- or all-wheel drive, and the NX350 has all-wheel drive standard. Two different hybrid models are on the menu, starting with the NX350h, which pairs two electric motors with the 2.5-liter four-cylinder for 240 horsepower. The more exciting option is the NX450h+, which borrows its 304-hp (with premium fuel) plug-in-hybrid powertrain from the RAV4 Prime. Both hybrids come standard with all-wheel drive. –60-MPH Times In our testing, the range-topping NX450h+hit 60 mph in 5.6 seconds while the NX350h needed 7.6 secondsto accomplish the same feat. Our first test drive was in a mid-range NX350, which snapped off a reasonably brisk 6.6-second 60-mph run. Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG According to the EPA, the most fuel-efficient NX model was the hybrid NX350h, which earned ratings of 41 mpg city and 37 mpg highway. The entry-level NX250 is rated as high as 26 mpg city and 33 mpg highway. The turbocharged NX350's highest ratings are 22 mpg city and 29 mpg highway. The plug-in-hybrid NX450h+ comes in at 38 mpg city and 33 mpg highway, and the EPA estimated its battery pack could hold enough electrons to provide up to 37 miles of electric-only driving range before needing to be recharged. On our 75-mph highway fuel-economy test route, an all-wheel-drive NX350 delivered 28 mpg but a hybrid NX350h returned only 34 mpg. An NX450h+ plug-in drove for 33 miles on battery power alone on this same 75-mph highway fuel-economy test. For more information about the NX's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website. Interior, Comfort, and Cargo Cabin design takes a big leap forward in this generation of NX, with a modern look and classy materials. The NX offers one of the more spacious cabins in the luxury subcompact crossover segment, with slightly more passenger room in the rear seat and more cargo space with the rear seats folded than many of its rivals. Optional features include a panoramic sunroof, heated rear seats, an ambient interior lighting system with 64 different color choices, and black open-pore wood trim. Infotainment and Connectivity All NX models are equipped with a touchscreen infotainment system; base models come with a 9.8-inch display while high-end trims get a large 14.0-inch unit. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both standard and work via a wireless connection; a wireless smartphone charging pad is optional as is a head-up display. A 10-speaker stereo system is standard and comes with a free trial of Amazon Music; a sonorous 17-speaker Mark Levinson stereo system is optional on models equipped with the Premium or Luxury packages.
