Lexus NX 2021: Many Surprises to Come
June 28 2020, Lexus Laval
The Lexus NX is a popular SUV that combines performance and versatility in a luxurious package. It is distinguished from its rivals by better styling, with the signature Lexus grille that makes a serious statement to stand out of the pack. The 2021 NX is expected to arrive later this year and this popular compact SUV will bring with it a host of new elements that aim to keep it on top of its game – and ahead of the segment.
A greater choice of powertrains in the Lexus NX
For the moment, the Lexus NX offers two choices of powerful engines under its hood, including a very efficient hybrid powertrain. This engine, which combines a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and the advanced Toyota hybrid system, develops 194 horsepower and 152 lb-ft of torque. In terms of fuel consumption, the NX Hybrid (300h) is rated at only 7.2 L/100 km in the city and 7.9 L/100 km on the highway. A second engine with more power is available on the NX 200, and it develops 235 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque thanks to a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder.
Two transmissions are available, a six-speed automatic transmission with manual mode and a continuously variable transmission. The NX 300 can also tow up to 2000 pounds, which is very good for its size.
Space and technology abound in the Lexus NX
The Lexus NX has a very luxurious and comfortable cabin. It comes standard with an 8-speaker audio system in addition to the Enform Safety Connect system which includes automatic collision alert, stolen vehicle location, an emergency assistance button (SOS) and improved roadside assistance. Many options are also available as options like the 10.3-inch multimedia screen, wireless charging, the navigation system with voice-activated SD card with Remote Touch function and many others.
We have a limited amount of information about 2021, but rumors stipulate that this popular SUV may bring a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version this year, allowing owners to drive all-electric on short distances in the city, in addition to enjoying greater autonomy during long distance trips. However, we will have more news for you in the coming months.
