AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/25 Report--

Recently, foreign media exposed the official video of the new generation Lexus NX. According to the video, the new Lexus NX has redesigned the interior and made a lot of changes to the exterior. It is understood that the new Lexus NX will be built based on TNGA architecture and will be launched globally within the year.

According to video screenshots, the new Lexus NX still features a family-style spindle front grille, but compared to the older NX, the front grille of the new model is larger in size, and the interior of the grille has been adjusted to add vertical chrome trim. In addition, the headlamp groups on both sides will also adopt new LED light sources, and the previous LED daytime running lights will be integrated into the main headlights, making the front face look more fashionable. On the side of the body, the new NX is not much different from the old model, but with a sharper waistline design. At the rear of the car, the new Lexus NX features the popular through-tail lamp set, while the taillights on both sides remain "L" shaped.

Compared to the exterior, the interior layout of the new Lexus NX has changed dramatically. The new NX has a significantly stronger sense of technology than the older models, eliminating a large number of physical buttons, adopting a new three-spoke steering wheel and a new shift lever, and the layout of the center console has been adjusted, equipped with a large size center screen and LCD dashboard. Wireless charging and head-up display can also be configured through the picture, but the RemoteTouch trackpad and clock of the old NX seem to have been cancelled.

In terms of power, Lexus NX will launch NX 200, NX 350h and NX 450h + three power configurations, covering fuel, hybrid and plug-in hybrid. The model shown in the video is the Lexus NX200, which may be an entry-level naturally aspirated model.

Although Lexus is one of the second-tier luxury brands, it is different from Cadillac, Volvo and other brands. It insists on not making domestic products in order to maintain brand tonality. In the domestic terminal market, there is not too much discount, but price increase. In this case, Lexus sales are still ahead of many luxury brands, which is undoubtedly a success.

According to the data, the cumulative sales volume of Lexus in China in 2020 is 223,648 vehicles, of which NX has sold 40128 vehicles accumulatively, which can be said to be one of Lexus 'main sales models. It is understood that Lexus NX was unveiled at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show and launched in the fourth quarter. It has been 7 years since then. After the brand-new generation NX is built based on TNGA architecture, the appearance and interior will be greatly adjusted, and the competitiveness of the product will be further enhanced. After listing, Lexus sales performance may be further driven.
