Great & Stylish Small Crossover

We recently purchased this vehicle on 12/19/14, and it's been a great ownership experience thus far. The car, particularly the F Sport trim we went with, is very stylish, and has a very aggressive-sport look that we have received many compliments on. The interior is top notch, typical Lexus build quality. For about $46k, there are bigger crossover/SUV options out there, especially if you intend to use the car as a family-hauler. However, if you are in the market for a luxury compact SUV, this is definitely on top of the list.

Lovin' the Lexus

Bought my NX200t AWD at the end of the year, but was still able to get the color I wanted. This review reflects one month of ownership, so I can't speak to reliability just yet. The seating is comfortable, cargo space is adequate for my needs (holds about 7 grocery bags comfortably), and this car does MOVE. The vehicle has Eco, Normal and Sport modes. When I will be accelerating onto the highway, I switch to Sport to give the car an added boost. In stop and go traffic, I am in Normal or Eco mode. Changing modes is quick and easy using a dial on the console. Most operations for the radio or navigation can be done via the steering wheel or voice command. Unlike my previous car by another manufacturer, the car synched with my iPhone 6S quickly and easily and remains connected. Audio quality is good. There is ample leg room in the front and back. The back seat has its own air vents. There are some large blind spots and that does take getting used to, but the blind spot detection system is very helpful in that regard. Remote start is available, but only through the Lexus Enform Remote app. This is free for a year and then the price shoots up. Basically, you end up paying for a remote start over and over again, which I think is ridiculous. Overall, I continue to be impressed with the comfort and performance of this car and am so happy I traded up to a Lexus! UPDATE: I have now had this car seven months and have updated the reliability score. I'm still very much annoying this car. It is performing well and, thus far, I've only needed an oil change.

Update: It’s been almost four years that I have owned my NX and I will soon be approaching the end of my lease term. I have been extremely happy with the NX as it has always been a high performance vehicle that has never left me stranded. I have been a proud owner of Lexus vehicles for many years and needless to say I have always been pleased with every vehicle.

My first SUV, my first Lexus

I bought my NX 200t AWD about 3 weeks ago. This is my first SUV and I am very happy with my selection. The body design is far ahead of any other SUV. I had been driving an Acura TL, a 2006 and 2011 (AWD SH)so it was difficult to make the switch. The Lexus has good pickup and handling is fine. It's not an Acura so I have to slow down a bit on curves. I love the quietness and smooth ride of the NX which was always mia in the Acura.The NX is fun to drive but you need to have it on "sport". There was little negotiation on price as they were unwilling to sell the SUV for less than the pre-arranged Costco price. If you love the vehicle, you pay the price.

First Lexus - very impressed

It was time to replace my 2009 Mazda6 which had been a joy to own, the steering/handling made it especially fun to drive. I wanted the same in a smaller package and almost pulled the trigger on a Mazda3. I did want to check out the premium brands to see what the extra $$ offered. Nothing caught my attention until I test drove the NX 200t F-Sport. While not neck-snapping, the acceleration is decent for most any driving situation. It is also very smooth with minimal turbo lag. It tracks well with firm handling (the summer rubber certainly helps), minimal lean in the turns while the steering wheel provides good road feedback although the effort was a little light for my taste. The suspension was surprisingly smooth and comfortable, even with the F-Sport package. The vehicle is also extremely quiet. So quiet that I often find myself far exceeding the freeway speed limit due to the lack of engine drone at higher speeds. The interior is laid out very well. The seats are extremely comfortable with excellent lateral support. All of the controls on the dash and center console are easy to reach. I appreciate the standard button controls for the climate control system and not having to access it through the infotainment center. The infotainment center itself is fairly straight forward and intuitive. However it is accessed through a laptop-like trackpad which takes some getting used to and is overly sensitive to the touch. The NAV system is just OK. Entering a destination is kind of clunky and I find using Google maps on my phone much easier. I'm very pleased with my purchase of the NX and look forward to enjoying it for many, many miles.
