The Lexus NX 300 Crossover is a crisp look from Lexus that
becomes more of a value player than ever before. With newly added features at
no extra cost, it will definitely be on the short list of any enthusiast luxury
buyer. Formerly known as the NX 200t, the new NX 300 features a powerful
2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with dual injection via port inlets
and direct injection systems.
This results in 235 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of
soul-stirring torque. The engine gets up to speed by using the Otto cycle of
combustion for rapid acceleration, switching to the more fuel efficient
Atkinson cycle when the NX 300 reaches cruising speed. The Lexus NX 300h hybrid
is also available with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and a small but high
torque lithium battery-powered electric motor for a total of 194 horsepower
when combined.
Power from the turbocharged engine is sent to a sequential
six-speed automatic transmission with Torque-Demand control logic that
optimizes required engine torque for quick response and exhilarating
acceleration. The Lexus Drive Mode Selector on the center console allows a
driver to select from settings including Normal, Sport, and Eco mode, depending
on your moods, and needs.
From the outside, the Lexus NX 300 is even more compelling. Featuring
an extremely sporty design, the NX 300 will be turning heads wherever you take
it. With an even sportier grille than before, its aggressive stance shows it
means business, for whatever need or destination comes your way. From the
spindle front grille to the aircraft inspired intakes and aerodynamic creasing
on the side, the Lexus NX 300 appears at full-throttle even while standing
still.
Order the NX 300 F-Sport and take advantage of improved
handling, amped up design and performance sound. Outfitted with an F-Sport kit,
the NX F-Sport handles better than the standard model, while the spindle grille
receives a revision that is more aggressive thanks to a new honeycomb designed
grille. Finally, if you also like engine sounds to go along with the stellar
stereo quality of the Lexus Premium Audio system, you are able to add to the
engine's growl by sending it through the CUV's audio system.
Inside the NX 300 is no different. With a mix of
high-technology and old world craftsmanship, it is an artful display of
functionality that has very few equals. Designers have found a way to spec out
the vehicle to include extra space for passengers, their gear, or anything you
like. Underfloor storage compartments keep your valuables out of sight while
split 60:40 rear seats can fold forward for more cargo space.
A multi-media
master, the NX 300 includes a high-resolution eight-inch display screen that offers
many different features to make your journal less stressful. These Lexus Enform
Destination Assist, and the Lexus Enform Apps system which offers everything
from traffic re-routing to the award-winning Lexus Enform system with 24/7
responsiveness in case of an accident.
All of these and other features show why the new Lexus NX
300 is a compelling choice in the Sport Crossover segment today. Check the
