Lexus NX 2017-2022

Lexus has launched the NX 300h Exquisite variant in India for Rs 54.90 lakh (ex-showroom). It will sit below the NX 300h Luxury trim which is now pricier by Rs 1.70 lakh and now costs Rs 59.90 lakh (ex-showroom). The 300h F Sport variant continues at Rs 60.60 lakh as before.

Lexus launched the first NX mid-size hybrid sport utility vehicle (SUV) in India in December 2017. Available in Luxury and F Sport trims, it was Lexus’ least expensive India offering. The hybrid powertrain is similar to the one found in the Camry. It makes 197PS and 210Nm of torque. The hybrid system can send up to 68PS and 139Nm of torque to the rear wheels, giving the NX conditional all-wheel-drive. The hybrid system helps the NX get an impressive fuel consumption figure of 18.3kmpl (claimed). The NX’s primary rivals are the Audi Q5, Volvo XC60, BMW X3, and Mercedes GLC.
