Wife just traded in her Acura ZDX so the move to a smaller lighter SUV was somewhat interesting. Purchased with all options. I can already see the learning curve may take some time with so many electronic features. However using the voice commands certainly softened the blow. From the showroom we took the car on a 250 mile trip. Even with the AC on the car ran right at 28.5 MPG.. It took about 100 miles to really get the feel. I was amazed that I enjoyed driving in ECO mode and very pleased there were no more blind spots as we had with the ZDX. The steering may feel a bit loose until you get used to it. Hate hate hate the GPS in fact the entire key pad thing STINKS! Gas mileage still decent. We sold the car. It was boring and under powered. Received a decent trade in value.

So here is the crux of this review. The entertainment system/GPS is the worse system I have every used. Before I explain let me tell you about myself. I have been in the computer industry for about 30 years now. I’m no longer a young man, but I understand and have many years of experience with all types of electronic interfaces. I tell you this about myself so you will see this isn’t a case of user error, or inability of the operator to figure out the nuisances of this high tech new world. Here are just a few of the reasons this system is the worse. The first is that damn track pad. The TP is so finicky that when doing simple things like putting a new address into the GPS system it makes it extremely time consuming. The pad has multiple touch options (none of which be selected over another), so when you start to scroll to a letter on the screen keyboard just lightly touching the pad (to start moving the cursor) registers as a click. OK, so now you just touch the pad for the first time and already you have an error that you have to delete. Keep in mind that the entire pad can be pushed down to get a click as well, so you back that error out and start over. But again the system senses and responds in erratic ways, it would be so easy if you just had one way to input a click (i.e. push the whole pad down) to click. This problem surfaces again and again. Now you have pain snakingly inputted the address now the screen shows you a visual representation of the place you asking to navigate to. However, you have top move the cursor to the Red Dot Highlight and then click to select it. Well, you guessed it… as soon as you touch the pad it registers that as a click and now the address you asked for is altered. It may be off by feet or by miles depending on the screen zoom factor. These issues abound with just about every aspect of this system. Try searching for a playlist on your attached iPhone, good luck doing it while driving. For safety sake you HAVE to pull over. But hey maybe that is the point, Lexus decided that they would make such a bad system that people will stop interfacing with it when they drive. The problem with that of course is that it is just as difficult to operate when you’re by the side of the road. The POI section of the map is another terrible setup. On the BMW system the fist POI’s that are listed are Automotive (after all we are in a car when we use these) so finding a gas station or parking is so much easier than the Lexus system. Even when you do get the POI you want, again navigating to it entails highlighting the POI and clicking on it, and guess what… same issue, over sensitive track pad leads to wrong POI. Ridiculous. How about when you get back in your car and the music you were playing always defaults to the first song on your attached device rather then picking up from where you last left it. The iPod/iPhone interface on this vehicle is terrible. I travel for business a lot, so I’m in rental cars all the time. T I see the interfaces of all these economy cars and they are light years better than this higher end luxury SUV. On a cheap Ford economy rental car I get easier access to my stored music and a better way to change what I’m listening to then on the Lexus. How about changing the zoom factor on the GPS display, simple right? No, you change it, but it reverts back to the same size unless you are in the proper view.The interface is terrible, it ruins the whole driving experience not to mention that you have to stare at the screen to do anything, nothing is intuitive. This would be just a minor annoyance if it weren’t so dangerous. Some of the issues I have had can be so distracting while driving that it is a wonder I haven’t gone flying off the highway while being distracted by this system. I write this to help inform people shopping for this car. If I had it to do over again I would not buy this vehicle. This car delivers on what any good car should do, ride well, be comfortable, but that describes almost any well built car on the market today. The driving experience is more about how you interface with the various systems in the car. This car doesn’t just fall down on that issue it is without a doubt the worse system in any car, luxury or otherwise. I have experience with a multitude of cars and this system is by far the most difficult to operate, and the least intuitive, because of that it is the most dangerous interface on the market. I do not recommend this car to anyone.

Final Catch After Chasing Many

I had been looking for a mid-size SUV with an engine lower than 3 Liter. I looked at Toyota Hiighlander (too big for two of us with 3.5 Liter engine and too big for us with a 2.7 Liter engine which would have to work hard to drive the same size vehicle as 3.5 Liter). I also looked at 4 Runner, Ford SUV's, Acura (too expensive with transmission problems) and Mazda (just sold one). I did not even know that Lexus has a new NX200t (Turbo) model. I was looking for a 350 (again too big an engine for these days with new technology of getting the same performance from smaller engines). It was a coincidence that I ran into my NX200t and realize what a catch it is.

Maddening and VERY DANGEROUS . We own a 2010 Rx and had no issues. THIS THING IS TRYING TO KILL ME!!!!! It connects and disconnects phone, then tells you the problem is in your phone...yeah right...I believed it the first few times and got so distracted trying to get phone to work I ALMOST CRASHED SEVERAL TIMES..right after I hang up on a call..next one won't work...sometimes.. The cursor jumps around on its own...ITS "MOSTLY" FRONT WHEEL DRIVE NOT TRUE AWD....MASSIVE TORQUE STEER..have contacted dealer and there is no fix. Even finding out if the stereo is ON is horribly complicated. One pushes the button and waits..several seconds.....for it to tell you the unit WAS on but you just turned it off....huh???? PERHAPS MY RUN WITH TOYOTA SINCE 1971 is OVER.
