Video Description

You might not have noticed amid the roaring success of the Toyota RAV4 at the more affordable end of the midsize SUV segment but its luxury twin, the Lexus NX, is similarly dominating at the luxury end of the field. Outselling the likes of the BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLC and the Audi Q5, the mid-size NX has appealed to the growing love of so-called ‘self-charging’ hybrid options in Australia with its very popular 350h grade. The new-generation NX makes huge strides in capability, refinement and practicality over the last gen, the new model is now the best-seller in the Lexus fold. And it shows no signs of slowing down. In today’s review, Chasing Cars production specialist Tom Place dives into what makes the NX so popular to so many buyers and weighs up the reasons you should or shouldn’t buy one.
