As an American I just absolutely love Canada. I'm so happy that we have such a wonderful country to our north. I'm very appreciative that you pay a lot of attention to the specs of cars for both the US and Canada. I'm a music enthusiast and I as an American appreciate all the contributions that Canada has given us over the decades. Gordon Lightfoot,Anne Murray and Neil Young are just a few examples.
Amen... Candians are some of the kindest and most respectful people in the world ! I love your PM regardless of politics.... Very rare to run into rude Canadians... Unlike in the USA.. SIGH... I love visiting Toronto, Vancouver, NOTL etc...
Don't forget Bryan Adams, Rush, and Triumph!
The type of reply bots we get are crazy
I waited for 12 months for this exact exterior/interior combination with the hybrid powertrain. Grecian Water with Palomino interior. It was worth the wait!
I love Andrea's laugh. I would describe it as "hot evil".
Well she ain’t hot
@@ekimandersom4478 You must be gay, not that there's anything wrong with that, or perhaps blind.
Love our UX, great value, best turning radius in class... not everyone needs or wants a three row SUV.
My NX has been nothing but a pure delight (like this channel 😁) and after 30,000 miles, it's still doing extremely well. However... I don't like the slight hesitation i get pressing the gas pedal after leaving a red light. Causes a jerk on take off. Happens in every mode, i don't understand why. Other than that, I'm really loving it. Mark Levinson sound system is superb!! And the seats are one of the best. Touch screen is phenomenal but can be overwhelming at times. Voice control and HUD keeps that issue at bay. I bought a interior protection kit for the gloss black. Highly recommend, easy installation.
Great video of a great vehicle!! 🎉🎉
Hahaha bloopers should become a regular part of your videos! Great job as always :)
Always found the spindle grille unique and demanding attention. One of the only design languages I really appreciate front to back.
........................... Totally agree..ESPECIALLY on the 450h+ ..."F" Sport with the large Black functional air intakes...Makes a VERY aggressive statement in a GREAT way! 🥰
Blue is my favorite color, and this is a great shade of blue. And that is a great interior color.
So, I want one! 🙂
Water blue is the color,it has different shades but this in particular is a favorite of mine
@@immanuelingari4336 Nice. I didn't know the exact name of the color. Thank you for that info
@@jimmyrichards5595 Most Welcome
Grecian Water is the color 💙
@@johnfvmurphy you're right.Its particular name is grecian but generally known as water blue depending on the tone of the color.Thanku all the same
I have the 2025 NX 350h, with the palomino interior. Loving it! Mine is the premium version not the luxury, so missing the 360 camera which is the only feature I miss. It’s a pollen/dust magnet but the car is so smooth. Getting 41-42 mpg.
My dream car....you're lucky.
Do you have comparison to 2024 model? Is it more quiet?
Lexus builds world class vehicles that are good looking, reliable and provide excellent service! I have owned three and 1 minor repair total! If you want excitement and great road manors look somewhere else but for many who want looks, reliability and service slam on the brakes. Having said all that my nest car will be a Porsche !
I like the color combo!! Very classy!!
Really nice vehicle, I saw a Luxury trim in Nori Green with tan interior, it looked great!
The nori green is beautiful
NX 350 - Love the Interior color and the Exterior color ❤😍😎 The TX Reminds me of Megatron (Transformers)!😊
Hi, I really love you guys, I’ve learned so much about cars from your vlogs!!! I recently started looking at the Buick Envision , can you do a review on it please
Have an nx350h executive trim. Love it! Its got every feature including great efficiency
😂 Zack still talking about a spare tire! This vehicle is very nice and I would given a 8.5 out of 10. One reason is I still don’t like the grill. Great show Andrea! ☕️☕️
Great package, great looking, a winner!
I have the 350h model and I have been pleasantly surprised with the run flat tires - they are not nearly as harsh riding as I thought they would be.
I love the exterior color!!
LOVE the color combo
My neighbour bought one of these in F-Sport trim (a nice red one) and they love it. They only had to wait about 3 months for it, which (at the time) was quite a bit less than most other options. Regarding the buttons vs screens debate, I prefer buttons as well. That said, in many modern cars with automatic features, I don't use them that often. For example, my temp is set at 22.5C and stays there year round, so it's not like I'm constantly adjusting it.
I love the colors. My neighbor has a bright red one, that looks good too
3:48 hahaha this is so hilarious & cute!! watching it over and over again hahaha
Love the fact that Toyota provides physical buttons. It is intuitive and easier to change when on a busy city road. Hate those touch screens which are finicky especially then it is -10 and you are wearing gloves.
This is the one I want to buy once it has a mid cycle refresh.
Great review. I kinda screamed when I saw my name!!! 🎉 Haha. And the hunt continues 😅. Keep helping us…👏👏👏 Thanks guys!
Happy to hear it, thanks for the question!
Great video guys, interesting to see a non hybrid NX. Ps you'd freak out if you seen the LBX, if you think the UX is small.
Tan interior looks fantastic. Would look great with gray or green exterior.
Nice video! Could you do a small off road test?
Hello Zack and the ice skater ! ⛸️😎
Zach takes a walk on the wild side by liking tan interior!
Great review! Really hope they lose the piano blackened the run flats. And it does need the spare tire!
I really like blue cars with orange/tan/brown interiors.
I agree about having to put premium fuel in the NX since it is the same engine in the Toyota. I recently purchased a RX 350h and I asked the same question about premium fuel and was told by a Lexus mechanic the engines are tuned different.
The crazy thing about the RX is it has a 17 gallon tank but when it says it has five miles or less until empty it only takes 13 gallons to fill up. I assume all Lexus have the same reserve amount.
Great video as always.t
so, do you continue to use premium fuel? Many on the hybrid is going with the regular unleaded since the engine is naturally aspirated.
I had a Camry hybrid and could maybe get 12 gallons in it when empty, but it had a 17 gallon tank. I always thought about it, but didn’t wanna ask when at the dealer.
93 octane isn’t too expensive when you only use an average of 8.6 gallons a month to go about 900 miles a month. I’m talking about my Volvo S60 recharge, 103 miles per gallon since new, over the last 18 months, 17,000 miles. The icing on the cake is the performance, 455 hp, 523 pounds feet of torque.
@@billurban1581 I looked into an xc90 but when in electric is RWD, hybrid FWD/AWD. Not even the dealer could answer my question. How are they in the snow when in the electric? Does the motor come on a lot for the extra grip upfront? Or do you have to actually have to put it in constant AWD on the settings?
@@billurban1581 show off!
Just leased the 350 turbo cloudburst gray black interior & the 350H atomic Silver red interior both are Premium trim.. turbo has extreme power 350 a little less.. both are quiet & impressive.. downsized from a Highlander Platinum & a RX450h .. perfect vehicles
At least it’s not blue with red interior - reminds me of Superman!
🤣
Nice car
We love the hybrid version of this but hard to find here in Texas with that interior!
They have cool jobs
I like both the NX and UX. And have sat in both. I swear the UX has a bit more headroom with the seats set as low as possible. How’s it for Zack?
I would love for you two to review the Lexus LC500, tbh
Zack & Andrea, you mentioned intuitive parking and power backdoor are standard, do you mean just for the states? I know Canada has power backdoor as standard from 2022 but just wanted to know if they added parking assist in Canada like they do in the US.
I'd be curious to see what the copper crest 350 f sport looks like
Thanks I love your videos!
I like the blue exterior but not the interior colour
It's better transmission than the 350h but the 350h is better for regular gas!
I'm missing the power back door in my signature 350h that's disappointing for me for a 2024 car!
well done i see them everywhere in toronro
Andrea 😂😂- holy ####- now that’s marriage - 27 years here! Friends from Colo
I think black interiors work on some cars, but in my opinion, not on Luxury cars. I like to order my cars with a different colour interior (if available). I am on my 3rd Cadillac and my recent 2024 Caddy has the Sangria coloured optional interior. It's stunning. But like Zack, I don't like sunroofs. lol. I like this NX350.
We test drove/compared the NX hybrid with the Venza Limited. We went with the Venza and we're very happy. And we saved money on the difference between the two vehicles. But, we would have liked the blue exterior/tan interior mix, which was not available on the blueprint blue exterior Venza.
is NX450h review any time soon?
I have the NX and UX and you can't really compare the size. UX is way smaller but we still love our UX and we will use it more often than our NX. For grocery shopping, UX way to small so when we go shopping and on trips, NX is our first choice
Unpopular opinion I like the piano black I have it in my 17 Corolla and it’s aged very well
Regarding comment about quietness, not sure how about Canada but models assembled in japan for european market got extra insulation in model 2025 (as long as mu dealer is not lying me). Graet test thank you!
My 2025 350h shipped from Canada and I’ve had it about a month now. I would have imagined the cabin would be quieter. It’s not an issue for me so it doesn’t affect my love for my car. The only thing I dislike is that I’m not getting the stated mpg for city. I get the 38-39 mpg when traveling on the highway for road trips but not in the city. I average about 34 mpg in the city. That’s a big disappointment to me. Granted, I frequently use the cool seats and always have on the AC but it’s the same when traveling for road trips. The Lexus app also states that I drive excellent so I’m not sure why I’m not reaching close to 41 mpg.
Grecian Water blue is my favorite Lexus color! I hope they continue to offer more interesting colors, black/white/gray cars are getting so 😴
03:47 Ooops the speed bump...... 🙃😛😂😂😂
Even though it’s only me inside the vehicle 99% of the time I prefer full size suv since I feel safer.
I don’t know, I want to like this but it’s either smaller than its competition or a lot more expensive. The package prices are beyond stupid. I think the biggest thing this has going for it is the hybrid or PHEV.
In Greece, the older model NX 350 HEV Business AWD 2023 goes for €62.000 and that's insane.
The other four cars to consider? I did. And I believe none of them offer a compact size hybrid SUV. Therefore, Lexus NX 350h was an easy choice. Plus it has a bit more style than its competition.
Is the NX350 hard to get in/out of? My wife is short (5’2”), do you know how many inches the passenger seat is from the ground?
It’s just a RAV4 trim level. If you go and compare the two in person they feel the same just more options.
LOL. Not even close. Seats are night and day different. Sound at highway speeds is so much quieter in the NX. Base trim sound system is way better in the NX.
Wish the model number corresponded to the displacement.
Does this have Heads up display or is that only RX and above? But what a beautiful vehicle! Love that color combination
It's available in nx as well.
You can see it in the video dude
This is equivalent to the Rav4? Nice review, guys.
Actually it's much more to the venza than the Rav
💖💖💖
And here I thought the front grill was inspired by the Predator in the Alien series. Anyway, from the profile, I expected that the car should have a wider stand to help with handling, but I may be wrong
I'll keep my Rav4 with the buttons and knobs and without that hideous Lexus grille. Now I'm going to think of a ferret on a cake every time I see one! I do like that blue with the tan interior though. :)
My '19 tiguan has soft lined door pockets...😉
I prefer the look of that silver RX. The paint choice and the slight alteration in the frame takes a bit of the curse off that ugly grill. Streamlines it rather nicely.
I don't expect this sells well here in Canada at that high $$$$?
Good luck keeping this safe in your driveway. Better inquire about the insurance cost before buying this vehicle.
I like real buttons. Its like being in the dark but you know the feel of the button and your hand and fingers just know where to go. Its like picking up your TV remote in the dark and just by feel you know where the volume button is. Also before smart phones you could make a call just on feeling the buttons but now you have to look at the screen or you might hit the wrong number.
Yup, thats why i bought the ES over the NX.
To be honest that 14 inch infotainment is awesome yet extremely under utilised and lack of user customisation or personalization… first I can think off with screen saver it brings back the classic Lexus analog clock and also some wallpaper… and yet it does nothing 😅
Happy Memorial weekend
Not memorial day weekend in Canada.
That doesn't mean much in Canada except we can watch the Indy 500 & Coca Cola 600 on Sunday. Happy Memorial Day south of the border!
I’m always scared not having a spare as I do highway driving to Saskatchewan which most town closed garages since Covid
the run flats then will do you well.
It’s ironic that the best version of the Lexus spindle grill is on the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia.
An extra 3 inches… makes a HUGE difference! Just ask my Wife. She and I just returned from picking up 5 large bags of mulch, 4 bags of potting soil, a 10kg of Kentucky grass seed and more. She is ALWAYS reminding me that she’d prefer an extra 3 inches. I consistently tell her that its more about a proven power plant. Great CUV, love the interior and the proven brand - although I wish (at least on the F-Sport) that they offered their brilliant 3.5L instead of this turbo 4-banger (yeah, I said banger). Thanks for the video.
🤨
I think the two new added USB-C ports are under the wireless charging pad.
Funny, I just returned the car after reading your reply and you are correct, didn't even know that cubby existed! I just cut that out of the video...
Turbo engines are great, unless you keep the vehicle longer term post-warranty, don't change the oil frequently, & drive most of your miles in stop/go city/suburb type traffic instead of open highway miles. Most people also don't let them properly warm up before driving or cool down after driving, damaging them over the long-term. But hey, they are fast & fun, & that is all that matters, so buy one!
Properly warm up? Side when, 1970?
@@senraq6332 yes dysto us behind the times.
@@senraq6332 Might want to do some research on it. Turbo tech has improved over the decades but it still has issues/limitations vs NA engines.
Toyota’s been using turbos for decades. Even in the 80s, the underlying engines were still reliable.
German User Experience is quite challenging for me... Japanese and American brands are so much easier to navigate and more logical for my brains.
This or CX-5 turbo?
Give the Corolla and Corolla Cross this colour to give them some vibe. The Rav4 already have a light blue option.
I love the original lx spindle grill! If I get a luxury car I want it to scream that. I hate the new RX grill.
What was Zack’s watch of the day? Don’t ask Andrea, one can see the Rolex clasp from the iPhone screen. 😆

I am a Canadian in Taiwan, and I am on the cusp of buying a 2025 NX 350h. I am feeling apprehensive about pulling the trigger because I worry that the 2026 or 2027 NX might be significantly revised or improved. Any thoughts?
You will never buy a car if you think this way.
I'm still trying to figure out which trim this review covered. Is it the regular NX 350 trim?
I think it’s the Executive trim. They said it was the highest trim.
@anitapharand2313 ok thank you 😊
The NX 350h is at the top of my list of potential cars, but the supply is so scarce!
yes hard to find in that interior color too. Even here in Texas, they push the hot black seats! Terrible in summer!
@@gosman949 I love the black seats but I'm way north of Texas.
Can't beat turbo assistance in any scenario 🎉
No thank you
I understand why some people may not like run-flat tires. But I'm not changing a tire on the side of the road in 2024.
i love this but I just hate that grill
Would you go to a nx350h . Thats what I'm thinking
I would. Toyota/Lexus makes the best hybrids. Better resale value too. Turbo engines are said to be less reliable, and they require premium gas no ands or buts.
I like the exterior colour, and it's not bad looking at all
I absolutely HATE the tan interior
LEXUS NEEDS TO DITCH THE RED AND PALAMINO INTERIORS. What ever happened to grey?
The savings in sheet metal and paint costs with that humongous grill.
Your description talks about the RX! The video is for the NX.
Fixed, thanks
When it comes to buttons, no one does it better than Mazda
Yes but the interior is really boring and bare… well made but boring and bare and that screen isn’t up to snuff
I just bought the 2024 NX350...the automatic breaking is irritating because the car auotmatically brakes way too soon! I donèt want to turn it off, they should make automatic braking closer.
I also purchased the same vehicle and have the same experience. Even if you turn it off it switches on automatically after the vehicle is switched off.
Run Flat tires - a hard no. No temp spare tire - another hard no.
Running on these. Couldn’t agree more. Utter garbage. You will feel everything on the road. You will hear everything in the cabin no matter how much insulation you’ve got. Stopping power is a meh 🫤. Performance is another meh 🫤.
Correct, you have limit selection on tires, and performance decrease on all categories; wet, dry, snow , treadwear
I’ve sat in one but found a few things that did not satisfy me. Smaller narrow windows, much more body below the side windows so visibility is not great !! A small vehicle but a big price tag. Just not for me.
So why not buy the Mazda CX-5 instead ?
Give me the 2025 crown platinum instead.
I gotta have it in copper crest and macadamia interior
