What color is this ? Cactus ?

Idk why so many people dislike brown, i personally think lexus is the only company to successfully pull off brown.

I love it but I think it needs 100 year to own it as mine

SUPER!!!!!!!

damn that thing is ugly. like something from the 70s

A fwd truck is a great idea. Ever drive an empty rwd truck. Kiss of occasions where the traction is limited as there's no weight in the back

I bought it , and i love it

Would you choose this or a q8?

Thank you for mentioning the extra insualtion for the quieter cabin your the only CZcams reviewer for the 2022 KONA who ever mentioned it, and I've heard over 30 of them,

It’s amazing to me that someone will review something they know NOTHING about and give an uneducated opinion on the subject matter… The brakes are absolutely fantastic on this truck! You obviously know nothing about it… c’mon man!🤦🏼🤦🏿🤦🏽

Big recall announced for the engine in the Tundra. This GX uses the same engine.

I will take a look at this next year, but I'll probably stick with my MDX Type S, Advanced.

TX is too damn practical looking like a Subaru this GX is so much more fun

Toyota needs European designers

I have literally just bought a mini cooper s convertible and I can't wait to pick it up

Love this one. 550h+ is the sweet spot in the plug in three row marketplace. And that smooth time-proven Lexus V6 as the kicker. You gotta know all that ain't going come cheap. But my mothers RX300 cost $43,000+ back in 2002, so they never really have been. Maybe the stuff missing will trickle in...but with Toyota/Lexus I doubt it. Enjoyed your review!

I have not owned a Ford in over 25 years and I took the plunge on my 2023 Ford maverick hybrid XLT! I absolutely love this little truck it does everything I needed to do plus it has averaged 48 miles per gallon since I purchased it! Yes, I do a ton of city and oral driving 45, 50 mph. Everything is perfect except for all the recalls come on Ford it together.

Hi it doesn’t require premium gas?

Finally found one in 2024 that is just 37K miles driven, though in Liquid Platinum (my previous infiniti's color) not this classic Brown.

Forgot to mention towing capacity, which is why some opt-in for the GX.

I'm out the CVT SUCKS ASS

I used to be the same way about range. To me the highest range won. If you remove range from the equation, this is one of the best cars out there. For 99% of my needs, this car is more than adequate. Not sure what is going on with the car tested, but I just finished charging mine last night and woke up with 213 miles of range this morning, which has been typical for me. If I drive with the climate control on, it naturally reduces the range, but the odd thing is, when I turn the climate control off after using it for a while, the range estimate goes back up as if I barely used it. I have a level 2 charger and charge maybe once a week. I would not take this, or any other EV on a long road trip. Until solid state batteries get here, that's best left to gas and/or hybrid cars. If you buy this car, Lexus will give you a free loaner for up to 30 days over 3 years. If you want a car that is quick, quiet, comfortable, luxurious, reliable (should be), loaded with tech and fun to drive, this car checks those boxes.

I see what you did here!

The auto version I have with 2017 petrol version best. Who wants to keep changing gears. If you want to override the twin auto clutch just use the paddles behind your steering wheel. My car in 999cc bhp good forget what and it turns on a pin even in narrow English country roads so you never feel you have to go endless miles in wrong direction if you take a wrong turn. It takes little fuel and feels economic if you a good driver and dont drive using your break 24/7 but drive in a mindful manner.

I have had three smart cars all the last 3 models but all using petrol not electric. I loved all of them. They all fun and had major plus points making them feel a much better option than my former ford fiesta.

Isnt that sound part of "feel of the road?"

Unfortunately the lack of quality materials of the interior kept me away. My dogs would scratch the interior to pieces in weeks, and the even lightly used ones i saw had an interior (really, the doors) that looked on their way to being a scratched up mess even at 6k miles.

Just picked up a 24 s3 prestige, in gray with black optic package. Best bang for your buck cars right now. Great style, tech and spirited performance.

My hybrid Maverick gets 750 miles per tank.

2016 Honda Pilot Elite, 2,280 miles

I just got a 2012 limited ht in 2024. I actually like the way it kind of feels like driving a much older car. Like, it's all "new" but somehow the steering wheel feels vintage. The analogue gauges look like the 60's. The green dot digital dash computer looks like 1987. The body is based on the Sebring but the Sebring was based on the 92 Labaron k car. Except for the air bags, the front seats could be from the same 70's time warp they got the hand brake from. And call me nuts but the back passenger roof of the ht convertible coupe is exactly like a 50s era Plymouth Belvedere\Fury. Also the Chrysler wings on front and back are similar to the old Plymouth wings on the Belvedere. I'd like to argue that the first Gen 200 with v6 was essentially a modern fury. Same company, Same vehicle category, similar size, similar profile, Similar horsepower options. The Belvedere was competing more with the 57 Chevy than the Corvette. Just like The 200 was competing more with Toyota Camry than with mustangs. Same car

Travel light is the key!

Currently number 2 on the list for a GTS manual in Carmine Red.

Wish I would've saw this before I got my Luxury Plus trim - Super disappointed with it

If this didn't come in turbo like a 2.0 4 cylinder..arm rest...and little more head room in back...sold...💯💯😍😍👌👌

I have only seen 2 NSX’s on the roads in the North East since 2017. One of which was an S version. But for the price, not enough creature comforts inside even compared to soccer mom MDX SUVs. I’m sure the driving characteristics are great but at that price, buyers have expectations given that there is a huge expense down the road not priced in (battery replacement).

Tried it. Verdict: Way too expensive and not even good

I want one

Deliver GLS (RED)

Our neighbors got one of the first ones available, just traded it in on their second one. Maybe the best answer to, "Would you buy it again?" is ... "Yes!" Always great to hear your take as well, Steve. 🌞👍👍

To mitigate mark uos just hold out as a unit ( neaning all of us ) and they will have to cut prices to sell

Hey Steve! I just seen an article about these and the escape and corsairs having a software issue where the transmission will randomly shift to neutral. Did you have any issues while you had this maverick ?

0:52 That’s the best tire abuse shot I think I’ve seen on CZcams.

Was the ramcharger ever supposed to be sold in the u.s.?

Still overpriced and dealerships asking Wayyy over MSRP.

When my 97 GMC Sonoma finally gave up the ghost late 2022, I started looking for another compact pickup. The Canyon (Sonoma replacement) had grown in size and price. Purchased a 2024 Maverick XL Hybrid with the CoPilot 360, hitch receiver, and bed mat. Side by side, the Maverick was about the same size as the Sonoma (the Sonoma had only front seat, the Mav has front and rear). Out the door (tax, license, everything) under $30K - that's about $10K under the 2WD Canyon.

Good review.... sums up why I bought mine.... does the little stuff I need it to and over the last 10,000 miles I am averaging over 40 MPG.

Looks like a neat little ute. JDM imports aside, I don't think we have anything Maverick size in Australia. Hilux, Ranger, Amarok, etc are the 'smallest'.

Dang, that’s a perfect nugget of a review! Thanks. Count me among those who would love this little sucker with AWD (assuming my 5’1” wife could reach into the bed, which wouldn’t be Ford’s fault if it didn’t work out. Maybe they could import a kei truck?).

My 2 cents: Looked at both the TX & GX in person this weekend. Everyone is different. For me the styling of the GX is far superior. The TX reminds me of a modern minivan. It’s TOUGH to find a reliable, luxury, off road capable vehicle. Our Jeep has 100% of the off road capabilities you could ever need in an apocalypse. The price… it’s loud. It’s bouncy. The headroom sucks. And the steering seems totally disconnected from earth. It’s still the only vehicle I’d take into the true wilderness. (But I’d have it airlifted there because I like my kidneys & hearing) Land Rover - Nightmare. Land Cruiser - Excellent but not luxe. New Bronco - Marginal off road. Typical Ford interior. If you want Lexus luxury, reliability , great looks & decent… not Jeep level but better than a Bronco off road capabilities then the GX OverTrail is the best option available right now. Or trick out a Porsche Cayenne Turbo.
