2018 Lexus NX Debuts New Look And Enhanced Handling

The Lexus NX enters a new model year following nearly four years on the market - and the refreshed model is making its public debut at the 2017 Auto Shanghai. The facelift brings several visual improvements, especially at the front where the upper part of the grille and the front bumper have been redesigned to “more fluidly blend into the hood and front doors.” The model also gets optional AHS-equipped headlamps and triple projectors – a similar technology to the one used in the LC luxury coupe.

 

At the back, Lexus designers have enhanced the appearance with revised taillights and a slightly reshaped lower diffuser with integrated tailpipes. The NX Hybrid receives a slotted sectional piece with an L-shaped satin chrome border. There’s also a new set of 18-inch wheels for the top trims.

 

Inside the cabin, the most notable improvement is the addition of a larger 10.3-inch display on the center console, which replaces the current 7-inch screen. Lexus also says the HVAC panel has been “dramatically” improved by replacing the small section of buttons with four easy-to-operate toggle switches. The manufacturer also explains that nearly all the controls and switches inside the interior, including the drive mode selector, shift knob, and door handles, now have a metallic satin finish.

 

For the 2018 model year the NX 200t will be replaced by the NX 300 – and the "t" designation has been removed because turbocharged engines have been adopted by other models in Lexus's lineup, the company says. The model retains its 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and the NX Hybrid will continue to be powered by a hybrid system that combines the work of a 2.5-liter unit and two electric motors.
