Lexus NX
The NX luxury compact crossover is available in 10 model and grade packages, along with the choice of a 235-horsepower turbo engine and a 194-horsepower hybrid system. Pricing for the latter has been significantly reduced for 2020, so the gap between the two is not that big. What’s more, the Lexus Safety System+ 2.0 adds new driver assist features, while a Rioja Red interior with black trim joins the list of available colour combinations.
