Driving fit

Where the Lexus NX Fits Best

A practical view of the buyer and roads this model is best suited to.

Who buys this

The NX 350h SE is strongest for a premium family-SUV buyer who wants a manageable footprint and a real choice between petrol, hybrid and plug-in-hybrid ownership. The best buyer for NX NX 350h SE can describe a recurring reason for choosing its suv layout. Then compare Hybrid power and the top trim with insurance, tyres, maintenance and the monthly finance payment

City
The urban test for NX NX 350h SE should resemble the owner’s route: a cold start, queues, kerbs, a narrow turn and a place where people or goods must be loaded. The vehicle’s a South African price reference of R1,248,000 is only useful if access and visibility work in practice
Highway
The NX 350h SE should be driven through a merge and overtake with realistic passenger load. For highway buyers, the NX NX 350h SE needs to make sense when passengers, luggage or work equipment are aboard. A power output of 179 kW @ 6000 rpm helps frame the vehicle’s intended workload; do not assume that a larger body automatically brings more reserve or comfort
Off-Road
Practical fit is equally important: boot space 520 litres; ground clearance 195 mm; braked towing 500 kg. Engine of 2.5-litre Naturally Aspirated Petrol Hybrid may help, but neither a tall bonnet nor petrol, hybrid and plug-in hybrid alone creates four-wheel drive, low range or a published wading ability
