Default The Pros and Cons of the Lexus NX300h

The Pros and Cons of the Lexus NX300h
By Brett Foote

The NX300h, like everything else in life, has some pros and cons, though the latter are few to speak of.

Our NX is the same color and we have really enjoyed it (both the color and the vehicle). Ours has the triple beam headlights which are a noticeable improvement over the previous HID lights we had on our RX 350. Anyway, this brief article makes some good points. The drivetrain is a good balance of economy versus performance but I wouldn't complain about more of either. The interior is nice and rear seat occupants have commented on the room, and the front seats are extremely comfortable - even for long road trips. Next month we will have owned it for 5 years and we have never had even a single issue with it. It is actually pretty easy to get 35 mpg in town. If I were to be asked, I would buy it again.

The main "con" I can identify is that the ride is a bit bouncy. Of course, this conclusion is based on my current alternate vehicle, a 2019 ESh sedan so I know it isn't a fair comparison, but it is very noticeable when alternating between the cars. A second negative is that there is quite a bit of road noise that intrudes into the cabin compared to our previous RX or the current ES.

The bottom line is that the pros definitely outweigh the cons for this vehicle.
