The 2025 Lexus TX is exactly what people considering it might expect. This family-friendly three-row SUV offers plenty of space for people and cargo, a smooth and comfortable ride, and an upscale look. However, dull driving dynamics in the tested TX 550h+ and a lack of luxurious detailing make its price premium over the similar Toyota Grand Highlander hard to justify.Read full review

Lexus is no stranger to building three-row SUVs, but the Lexus TX is the first one to offer adult-friendly comfort in all three rows. Not only that, but it also provides the secure driving dynamics of a crossover SUV, so much cargo room it dwarfs many rivals, and a choice of three powertrains, including a hybrid and plug-in hybrid. Introduced in 2024, the TX carries over for 2025 with more standard equipment and a new F Sport Handling trim level. Just remember this: If you're interested in off-roading, the TX isn't the right Lexus SUV to buy.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2025 Lexus TX 500h F SPORT Premium 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo gas/electric hybrid 6A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.79 per gallon for premium unleaded in Virginia.}

Edmunds spotlight: Is the TX 350 F Sport Handling more fun to drive?

Until we get our hands on one, we can't definitively say the new-for-2025 TX 350 F Sport Handling is more enjoyable to drive than other TX 350s. However, the upgrades suggest it will be, and they have nothing to do with the sportier styling, improved seat bolstering or fancy metal pedal covers. For starters, it has standard 22-inch wheels wrapped in wider tires, so it should demonstrate improved grip. It also has an F Sport-tuned adaptive variable suspension, engineered to enhance the SUV's ride, handling and body motion control. Therefore, we suspect the answer is yes, it is more fun to drive.

Competitors to consider

Among premium SUVs with three rows of seats and available hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains, the Lexus TX is in rare company. The Mercedes-Benz GLE and Volvo XC90 are the alternatives, and neither is as roomy inside as the Lexus. However, if you read our Expert Rating below, you'll discover we think the TX doesn't quite live up to its luxury SUV status. So, if you don't need all of that interior room but like the idea of driving an upscale SUV at a discount, you might consider the Mazda CX-90. When loaded with everything, the Mazda is about the same price as a base TX 350.

out of 10

We drove the 2025 Lexus TX on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.^{The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.}

Performance

8/10

How does the TX drive? We tested the TX 550h+, which is the plug-in hybrid version. In our testing, the big TX accelerated from zero to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds, which is quick though ultimately pretty average for a luxury SUV. Nor is the TX an athlete in the corners. The SUV feels its size and has a suspension that favors comfort over sport. This makes for a body-roll-filled experience anytime you take a turn with some vigor. The good news is that the TX is an absolute peach during daily driving; it behaves exactly how you want it to with an easygoing powertrain that switches between gas and electric modes without making a fuss.

Comfort

8.5/10

How comfortable is the TX? Overall, the TX is a very comfortable SUV for long-distance drives. Our test vehicle had seat heating and ventilation functions for both the front seats and outboard second-row seats. The climate control system works quickly and effectively, even offering three levels with the auto function. We also like the smooth ride of the TX 550h+. It has an adaptive suspension that makes driving over bumps no problem. Noise and vibration levels are about what you'd expect of a luxury SUV — things are mostly quiet, especially when the TX 550h+ is driving in electric mode.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? The Lexus TX's cabin is more functional than it is pretty. There is space for a full family to take over all three rows, with easy access to the back seats via the available captain's chairs or with a button push to slide the middle row forward. Visibility for the driver is excellent with no major blind spots getting in the way.

Lexus uses a lot of touchscreen-based controls for the climate system, which makes operation more complicated than just having a set of regular buttons. We also found some of the buttons on the steering wheel troublesome to use because they are unlabeled. In our test car equipped with the head-up display, it was also difficult to see anything going on when wearing sunglasses.

Build & Price

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? The 14-inch touchscreen is crisp-looking and has easy-to-read graphics and quick responses. But the somewhat confusing on-screen menus could use some refinement. Our TX test vehicle also had the upgraded Mark Levinson audio system. Usually, we love these systems in Lexus vehicles but this one was a bit of a disappointment for overall audio quality. The speaker placement, especially in the rear, feels off.

Wireless smartphone connectivity is standard but, strangely enough, navigation is not. After the free trial expires, Lexus charges a fee to continue the cloud-based service. We had a few issues with connecting to the cloud-based system, even in populated Southern California. The TX does have a decent voice command system, but it's too slow to respond for what it can do.

The TX comes standard with Lexus' Safety System+ 3.0, which includes pretty much every advanced driver aid you'd expect. In our testing, we found that they worked generally well. Sometimes they were a little slow to react or issue warnings.

Storage

8/10

How’s the storage? Even with all three rows of seats in place, the TX has 20.2 cubic feet of space for groceries or small suitcases — especially with the back seats pushed upright instead of reclined. Space improves to a generous 57.4 cubes when you fold down the third row, which can be done with a quick push of a button. There are cubbies in the third row that can hold an iPad, and each passenger gets multiple cupholder options.

Installing a car seat in the TX should be an easy process with easy-to-find LATCH points on the two outboard seats. The SUV's not-too-tall ride height and wide-opening rear doors also help to make loading in a seat less of a headache.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

8/10

How’s the fuel economy? In our testing, the TX 550h+ plug-in hybrid (which is what we tested) provided 31 miles of all-electric range, or 2 miles short of its EPA estimate. After the battery went flat, the TX did an average of 29 mpg. For reference, the EPA says you can expect 27 mpg combined from the TX 500h regular hybrid or 23 mpg combined from the TX 350.

Value

7.5/10

Is the TX a good value? The plug-in hybrid TX 550h+ is considerably more expensive than the base TX 350. It's also typically more expensive than plug-in versions of the Mercedes-Benz GLE and BMW X5, though the TX has more space than either one. We were unimpressed by the material quality throughout the TX's interior. It's filled with generic-looking dark plastics and soft-touch materials, without any emphasis on design or detail. Put another way, it's far too similar to the less expensive Toyota Grand Highlander that it shares a platform with.

Wildcard

7/10

There's nothing about the TX that stands out above its competitors apart from the excellent passenger space that it offers. If you're looking for a family-friendly luxury SUV, this one nails it. Unfortunately, Lexus didn't upgrade the TX enough from its Grand Highlander roots. It's lacking the exciting design and personality we expect from a Lexus SUV.

Which TX does Edmunds recommend?

For the best blend of performance, efficiency and premium features, the TX 500h F Sport Performance Luxury is the way to go. However, it costs about $75,000 and doesn't have some features you might expect at that price, like a surround-view camera. If you don't mind the TX 350 Luxury model's slower acceleration and thirstier engine, you can save about $10,000 by choosing that version of the SUV.

Helpful trims summary and side-by-side comparison chart

Lexus TX models

The 2025 Lexus TX is a midsize SUV with three rows of seats and a seven-passenger capacity. Three models are available based on the powertrain it uses: TX 350, TX 500h F Sport Performance and TX 550h+.

A turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine (275 horsepower, 317 lb-ft of torque) powers the TX 350, and it's paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. Lexus sells the SUV as a base TX 350 model, with Premium, Luxury and F Sport Handling trim level upgrades.

The TX 500h F Sport Performance has a hybrid powertrain (366 horsepower, 406 lb-ft of torque). It pairs the TX 350's engine with a six-speed automatic and two electric motors, one at the front and one at the back to power the rear wheels. Lexus calls the two-motor all-wheel-drive system Direct4. This version of the TX is available in Premium and Luxury trim levels.

Every TX 550h+ plug-in hybrid is offered only in the Luxury trim level. This model features a 3.5-liter V6 engine, a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and a Direct4 all-wheel-drive system. The combined output measures 404 horsepower. According to Lexus, the TX 550h+ provides 33 miles of electric-only driving range before switching to traditional gas-electric hybrid operation.
