Lexus redesigned the 2022 NX on the new TNGA K platform. 4 total powertrains. More options than a golden coral buffet. This F sport 350 AWD gives us the kitchen sink for around $55k. Here’s why the new NX is very well the best Lexus Crossover until the 2023 RZ and RX come about.

So, is it better than the RX? Too bad 350h doesn’t have a f sport package.
Damn what a beauty!
That small delay when you push the gas peddle is a deal breaker for me. I've driven a lot of new Lexus models that feel like that and I'm not a big fan 😔
The red on red color looks stunning! It’s interesting that the CX 50 turbo engine sounds better than the turbo engine on the NX🤔. Looks like someone has been to Pollo Tropical recently. I love Pollo Tropical!
Nice I'm surprised Acura did not invite you for the integra yet?
no manual door locks? Lexus should incorporate at least some type of (electronic) visual indicators on each door that shows the current lock status, and another display for the driver as well.
I need the nx 450 h+ kirk!
The engine is a little loud and the noise is not great but overall it's a fantastic car.
good presentation, thanks Kirk.
It could be nice, this engine + electric = 350 HP.
I like typing “Kirk” in the YouTube search and your channel comes up first…..
I drive in rural areas and have had flat tires on more than one occasion. Need a spare tire.
Awesome video! If I was ever in the market for an SUV, the NX (especially if it was given the FSport Performance treatment) would be on the shortlist. Yeppers…you're THE guy for Lexus Reviews on YT. Keep On, Keep'n On. 🙂
GV70 is a much better option than this bland same styled Lexus.
is there 350H F Sport? I like everything about 350H, but would be nice if I can get it in F Sport package.
I heard some people already have problem with electrical gear shifter. Whenever they shift the gear to Drive, the car still on park mode which does not allow them to drive.
I have a 2020 RDX and the panoramic sunroof makes popping noises. The dealership says it can’t fix it.
I have to agree that this new NX looks way better.
will be getting my wife the Nx350h F-sport, just need to decide between two colours Nova White or Kakhi green
Is the hybrid quieter interior among the different drivetrain and wheel options Kirk?
If you had to choose between the NX or ES for a road trip (4+ hours) which would you choose?
I’m so glad the NX 350H has more power than the RAV4 hybrid! Definitely makes a better buy than the RAV4 hybrid! 14:08 Nooooo😭💔🖤
Gorgeous!
The top of the line 2022 NX 350h is $78,453 CAD. Worth every penny for how long it will last, but it's a high upfront cost.
OMG, rattles with the loud music, that's a total deal breaker for me and it's what I've been increasingly worried about with new Lexus models, the build quality just isn't what it used to be boys and girls. The UX also has terrible rattle issues in the doors when playing music loud, especially with heavy bass. Sad times Lexus fans I'm afraid, they don't make em like they use to. Also, did you check out the wobbly centre console? Few reviewers have shamed Lexus for that too!
Why isn’t led signal standard Lexus. Wtf
Hope the RX gets a new look.
Thanks Kirk for your reviews. Q? Was this a preproduction or a production run car?
So it brakes better than the IS, but does it drive better after all? Thanks for uploading!!!
This is nice not going to lie but I still I would choose the genesis gv70 or Volvo XC60.. just feels more premium to me this car is giving me mazda vibes
The thing is… the price of this NX 350 fsport model in Vietnam is a whopping $145,000 USD, and I an ordering it soon. Feel so dan jealous with the one in the U.S., even I pay $145,000 here but I receive no paronamic sunroof, no 64 color light (mono light only), no mark levinson (lexus premium only 10 speakers), no 360 camera (only back up camera only), no digital rear mirror (anti reflective only), no remote key using smartphone. Yub I that is a whopping $145,000(tax inclusive) that I am going to pay! 🙁
Man, Lexus really missed the mark with this one. Between the rattling MARK LEVINSON speakers, the glossy black interior, the ridiculous doorhandles, no spare tire and terrible fuel economy – why would anyone pay a premium for this?
🆘♿should be much safer,
like all vehicles of this brand
-> results of crash tests +
neck injuries occur with a 46% probability on a Lexus nx ride in a 50km/h (35mph) crash test where a dummy ( doll ) was used
( driver 46% passenger 42% )
that's why i dont like this – not my choice
❌
( it is still Toyota Camry )
( The Chevrolet Equinox is safer than the Lexus nx )
Thanks kirk for showing a little bit of the lights. Keep up the good reviews. I can't wait for you to get your hands on the new Nissan Ariya.
I counted two exhaust tips hidden underneath, not one.
Never had a more difficult decision between this and gv70 2.5t sport…
I really like my wife's 2022 NX 350h in Nori green, loaded with the luxury package and all the other options. The performance is decent and it certainly won't break any speed records… however the fuel economy is stellar and the ride is silky smooth. Also, the material quality is top notch and it was built in Japan!
Love my Blue NX F Sport. Have had it a month. I'm still learning how to use everything and can't wait for summer when I can open the pano roof. The ML sound system is great. That being said…I may trade up when I can to the plug in hybrid. In the Midwest that may not be till next year sadly. For now, I love this car!
Any idea how soon NX production in Cambridge Ontario will start, and which models will come from there versus Japan?
You seem to be a little off in this video. Perhaps that bump in the head is more serious than itt appears. Hope everything is going better than not. Stay safe, I would hate to not be able to see these excellent reviews and hear exciting news in the automotive realm. Finally got my Ceramic White Elantra N. Everything I thought it would be and a heck of a ride. I'll hopefully be posting some amateur content soon 😆.

Definitely getting one. NX350h
going for a test drive in an f sport 2 Saturday. I sat in the Acura and this same day within 10 minutes of each other. They are basically identical in price. i felt more tucked in in the Lexus. Also the infotainment definitely goes to the Lexus. Steering wheel and wheels go the Acura. but in the end i want comfort and i want infotainment usability.
If Lexus is advertising different trims and packages, why can't I buy one? I tried all my area Lexus dealers for a 350 Luxury package with Panoramic View Monitor. I can't find one, and I can't order one, yet still advertised.
2023 RX doesn't look as good as the 2022 NX. I think the 2022 NX and future models will be the GO-TO suv from here on.
Your expert reviews are bang on. Don't buy/lease a car without watching Kirk's vids.
This thing needs more power
235/550 tires??? Hmmm.
I think they left the chrome on the mirror in purpose
I give up on the Japanese luxury . Looks like Lexus , Acura , Infiniti they only want to compete each other . They don't set the target high like Hyundai . The ride quality handling interior Build quality can't even get close to Genesis I don't know how they compete with the Germany only upside the is resale volume . I have the 350 F sport for 2 week I sold it I can't stand the steering wheel with the new touch pads not only one but two every time when i driving is so easy to touch those pads and they keep popping up on the head up display . Especially at night time man is so distraction .
Glad you like this Vehicle……….I own the 2022 450h+ F sport..Note the Heads Up display on the windshield W/14” Crystal clear display on both, alone makes the Lexus better……..Mine is In Atomic Silver Glows in the Sun Light with Lil" grey metal flake" and same Circut Red interior.. but with Electric battery…Has 306 Horse power 0 to 60 in 5.6 sec (Via Road and track at drag strip!.) This model DOES- NOT have a TURBO…But rather, a Naturally aspirated / Carb………..(important because it is well known that TURBOS stress engines)…simply said: see euro cars shop time & inevitable “ Check Engine Light CONTINUALLY!!….this car combines the Elec Batt and engine to achieve 89 miles per Gallon ( Uses 87% octane / Regular gas according to user manual) in Hybred mode with HIGH torq, And VERY quick out of the hole…Jus' blew the doors off a 735i beemer…albeit for only a block …( I am no dummy a V will eventually pass many cars in the long dist. (in all fairness) ……However, who cares the thrill is initial take off and tickets are for high speed & SPEED…Kill's! My car has Red Calipers against Powder coated Gloss spoke Black mags and All red "F" Sport Badges…….. FAR better built than euro's (mine built in Japan) sadly, new releases are now being made in Canada! Like USA Union shops…no one gets fired for a hang over and bad work??? maybe)….. However, Lexus is Far more reliable…Far better Re-Sale that Euro beemers or mercedes Check Engine Light Gucci headache) …….indeed mine has Gone UP in price…Not many cars you can find Like that!… IF YOU CAN FIND ONE ANYWHERE do grab it!……"econ 101"…..Has (3) elec. motors gett'n 0 to 60 in 5.6 sec (road and track) HIGH torque QUICK out of Hole!……~*~*Never do I use gas….. gett'n 43 miles per 120 Volt charge (real world driving my experience.) and NEVER USE GAS Frean'n inflation caused by “Elections Have Consequences!….Almost Silent operation in elec….So do your research, PLEASE……as this is Far better than any European beemer, mercedes and korean etc. All those are depreciating the moment you drive off the lot BIG TIME! And are un- reliable offering to say nothing of the GAS HOG unproven G 70, & RDX not worth mentioning. Z Best of the BEST F Sport 450h+ ! ….One more thing, Jus' a heads up!……My wife drives the RX 2020 model…Consider putting Michelin's at $1000.00 en ebay and balanced on your NX 450h+ F Sport replace the Idiot Run Flats that the dealer wants a $1200.00 extra for warr because like me You WILL eventually get a flat and the Run YOUR WALLET Flats are required to replace??? are you freak'n kidding????….Michelin's primacy same size &……Far and away EVEN a much smoother ride, Shissh, Do Not tell my wife …even smoother than her 2021 RX 350….because My "F" Sport has the added "Adaptive Suspension". Much better ride than the HARD Run Flat Bridgestones that come stock. Carry a Batt. quality inflator ( DeWalt 20V MAX Corded/Cordless Air Inflator ) and string tar impregnated rope insert-er and Do-Not wait for AAA. Consider Usein Only Plug -in and a Hybread NOT a All electric Automobile!………Using All electric YOU MUST consider YOUR TIME!….i.e. cost benefit analysis. By stopping frequently and needing to use REMOTE Elec Batt fill CONSIDER: fill time, as you probably eat and drink more and waste time simply WAITING to re-charge. You may even drive out of your way searching for an available station Many a Tesla driver has found out the hard way! Consider all the aforementioned & and You WILL Have the best of the best in the 450h+ “F” Sport and reflect having a Sophisticated, Elegant & classy platform as well! …..Jus' consider this on DEPRECIATION Of other vehicles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPJnBjfh644 End of story!
