2021 Lexus NX Review, Prices, Models

2021 Lexus NX for sale – Lexus makes some of the sharpest-looking cars in the automobile industry. The fact that it’s underpinned with the engineering and the reliability form of Toyota makes it a pretty sweet package. Their sporty and compact NX 300 has been slated for a refreshed appearance for 2021 but Lexus has decided to stick to the already cool package that the NX 300 already is and add in a new splash of color.

Brand	2021 Lexus NX
Maker	Lexus/ Toyota Motor Corporation
Year	2021
Price Range	₦14.6 million – ₦18.6 million
Release Date	October 2020

The Lexus NX arrived in 2015 as the NX 200t, and other than a mild name change, the NX has remained mostly unchanged since. In 2021, we expect this small crossover to be a carryover once again. Being a carryover model, we expect the 2021 Lexus NX to carry on with the same outward appearance. This will include its long hood, swoopy roofline, angular headlights and taillights, bold Lexus spindle grille, and more. While it’s still a good-looking crossover, it lacks the aggressiveness of the latest Lexus models. We also expect the F Sport model to carry on with its larger grille and wheels to enhance its sportiness.

Inside, we expect the 2020 NX to retain its angular dash with premium upholstery, thick-rimmed steering wheel, busy centre stack with a few too many buttons and knobs, and more. As for upscale features, we expect the NX to continue with its standard 8-inch or optional 10.3-inch infotainment screen, leatherette seating, keyless ignition, and more. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will also remain standard, as will its frustrating touchpad infotainment interface.

2021 Lexus NX Interior

The 2021 Lexus NX offers the customizable comfort of a heated steering wheel and heated and ventilated front seats. As well as stadium-style rear seats that provide ample legroom and first-in-class power-folding and -reclining capability.

The eye-catching F SPORT takes style further with a more boldly styled front fascia, rear bumper, and exhaust openings. Interior upgrades include distinctive contrast stitching and rubber-studded aluminium pedals. An available Power Rear Door with Kick Sensor offers convenience even when your arms are full. And inside the NX, a reclining rear seat with a 60/40 split helps you make the most of the generous cargo space.

2021 Lexus NX Performance

The NX F SPORT features front and rear performance dampers and a sport-tuned suspension. And for even more dynamic handling and enhanced responsiveness, an available Adaptive Variable Suspension can automatically adapt to changing conditions. With a potent 2.5-litre engine and powerful electric motors, the all-wheel drive NX Hybrid delivers smooth, instant acceleration. And a class-leading 31-MPG combined estimate. All without requiring a charge.

2021 Lexus NX Safety

With enhanced radar and camera capabilities, The Pre-Collision System (PCS)  can help detect vehicles ahead and more. Like a preceding bicyclist or pedestrian in the daytime, as well as a pedestrian in low-light conditions. Should it detect a potential frontal collision, The Pre-Collision System (PCS) can help automatically brake the vehicle to a stop. When All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is enabled, The Pre-Collision System (PCS) monitors visible lane markings or the path of the preceding vehicle. And provides steering assistance to help keep the vehicle centred in the lane. Designed for convenience and to reduce driver strain, the system can be used in traffic and on highways with gradual curves.

We expect the 2021 Lexus NX to continue with the same two powertrain options. The NX 300 will include a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 235 horsepower and pushes it through a six-speed automatic transmission and out to the front or all four wheels. The NX 300h will continue with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine paired with two electric motors that combine for 194 hp. The NX 300h will come standard with all-wheel drive thanks to its rear electric motor.
