The hybrid MAX system that's in 500h models I mentioned, that's mating a hybrid system with a 6spd auto. We'll have to see where that goes over time, its quite new still. I think the CVT will stay for smaller or lower powered cars, and the MAX will be used for larger or higher powered cars. But whether is suitable for PHEV, that's an even more interesting question.

This is available for some of the driver assist features (excessive speed warning comes to mind), but not for the BSM.

I have a 2024 nx350h and it needs a trailer wiring connector! Paid extra $200 for towing pkg but there's no wiring for small trailer lights! Lexus, please add this to next years but also send me a solution for my 2024.

Sigh. These complaints about scratches on the dash 😔

You got a Lexus. Go out and buy a decent leather conditioner. It will work wonders on your leatherette dash and NuLuxe if you don’t have leather. And it’ll do it without leaving a shiny grease coating on the dash.

Yep, I got the Lexus. I am very gentle but nevertheless, it does scratch/scuff quite easily. I’ve tried myriad products — including NuLuxe which did NOT work. 🙄

The bottom line is the dash material is SUBPAR for a Luxury brand. Also, this is my third NX and dash scratch/abrasion has Never been an issue with the previous generation.

Default Sunglass compartment

It's nice they give you a storage area for your sunglasses as most cars today do but if the sunglasses would only fit inside. Any owners able to use this little compartment?

It was an interesting dilemma at first. The sunglass area is smaller than most other cars. But I tried a second or maybe third time and it will actually hold sunglasses. My advice is try again patiently and you might be surprised as I was, they will actually fit.

YMMV,

LOL, 2023 Toyota Prius LE mare advanced than Lexus. It has 3 mpg settings: (1) lifetime (2) since last fill-up and (3) trip. These are selectable.

YMMV,

Agree 100%! Anyone in product planning even try to put a pair of Ray Bans or Serengeti’s in this tiny little cubby? None of my glasses fit in there!

Tried but my sunglasses were too big for it also. So it's not useful glass holder for me.

Button for camera should be lit or bright red... would like to see it better at glance when needed.

Lexus should start offering 360 cameras that records like Tesla.

Massage seats for driver and others.

BMW offers both that in the X1 already.

If you're meaning the 360 degree monitor, I have a work around. I've set it to auto so every time I slow down it comes on automatically. This saves all the fumbling to try and hit the button right when you need to be paying attention to what you don't want to hit!

See this video time stamp 1:58:45 she points out how to switch to auto.
