Lexus NX 350h
The Lexus NX 350h brings a fuel-efficient hybrid powertrain to the brand’s compact luxury crossover lineup. With its large spindle grille and swept-back headlights, the NX 350h is easily recognizable as a Lexus and is quite similar in style to the larger RX hybrid. Four NX 350h trims are available, each with front- or all-wheel drive. While the NX 350h offers adequate interior space, taller rear-seat passengers might find it cramped, though children shouldn’t complain … much. As expected of a Lexus, the NX 350h features high-end materials throughout the cabin; however, genuine leather is only available on the most expensive Luxury trim.

Second generation Lexus NX 350h
The 2022 Lexus NX 350h marked the SUV's second generation, bringing updated styling and features to the compact luxury hybrid crossover. While the exterior design clearly separates the NX 350h from its NX 300h predecessor, the interior upgrades were even more significant. Highlighting the changes was the new Lexus Interface System, which eliminates the challenging-to-use trackpad and integrates a new touchscreen with an impressive natural voice interface. All trims also come with the Lexus' comprehensive suite of advanced driver-assist systems.
With improved performance over its predecessor, the NX 350h features a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors on front-wheel-drive variants and an additional motor that provides power to the rear wheels on all-wheel-drive trims. While it doesn’t deliver as much power as the non-hybrid NX 350, it achieves impressive fuel economy, with an EPA-estimated 39 mpg combined on all-wheel-drive versions.
