2017 Lexus NX

The NX has been deemed the best 2017 luxury compact SUV for the money because of a combination of overall quality and value, as well as substantial long term value based on the low cost to own and impressive gas mileage. According to EPA estimates, the NX gets 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, which is very good for the class.

Making the most of every cubic inch of its 2.0-liter engine, the turbocharger relies on advanced twin-scroll technology and the ability to seamlessly move between conventional and Atkinson cycles, pairing quick acceleration with greater efficiency.

The exterior of the new NX has been given an aggressive style, highlighted by sporty shapes, hard edges, and a wide open black grille. The interior has a much softer appeal, with the status luxurious materials and high end technology features. Soft to the touch materials are cushy and forgiving, and sport chic contrast stitching. Wood trim and a modern analog clock are subtly classy touches. Lexus dives deeper than any other compact SUV on the market and offers us heated mirrors, automatic dual climate control, eight way power adjustable seats with lumbar support, an eight speaker sound system, and all of the standard technology features that their competitors offer as well. The overall design and plethora of amenities within really make the NX shine.

The NX also comes with some exceptional safety features this year. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control can help maintain a preset distance from the car traveling in front of you by automatically reducing the throttle and even applying the brakes at speeds above 25 mph. Once the road clears, the NX returns to its preset speed. Other helpful features include blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, intuitive parking assist, and a rearview camera. The NX features are top of the line and ensure optimum safety on the road.

Luxurious features and convenient amenities work in harmony with the outstanding value to provide a stellar choice for anyone in the compact SUV market. The NX is a clear winner for us, but you wont know for sure until you take it for a test drive! Receive updates on the NX or schedule a test drive with us here.

2017 Lexus RX: A New Era

The all-new 2017 RX introduces a new era of Lexus deign.  The sharp lines and distinctive floating roofline have been molded to alter the silhouette when looking at it from different angles. The rigid, fluctuating lines exude ambiguity and evoke curiosity. The modish, slanted accents have a primal fierceness to them. The floating panorama glass roof enhances the spaciousness of the interior cabin and gives rear seat passengers a unique, open air experience.

The tranquil design of the Matte Linear Dark Mocha wood trim combines the organic feel of natural wood with a layered look that’s meant to resemble modern art. The steering wheel trimmed in Matte Linear Dark Mocha is the result of a confounding 67 steps of craftsmanship over the span of 38 days. This intricate accent is formed from many layers of thinly cut wood that are bonded together and meticulously shaped and buffed. The RX says hello by illuminating the area surrounding the vehicle with soft lighting the moment you approach- adding visibility and security. You will also be welcomed by ambient interior lighting that brightens or dims as your entering or leaving the vehicle.

The RX has Drive Select for more control over responsiveness and shock absorption during your drive. There’s also the Active Torque Control AWD system, in place to actively monitor road conditions and shift engine power between the front and rear axles when needed. The engine is a 3.5 L V6 with 295 hp, paired with an exceptionally smooth eight speed transmission. The RX also now features a dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence system (VVT-i) for precise engine performance and enhanced fuel economy. VVT-I monitors engine speed and load, increases torque at lower speeds for improved acceleration, and boosts performance at higher speeds by adjusting intake and exhaust valve timing.

On top of premium performance, the RX offers all of the best of the line safety and technology features. A sensor on the rear door enables a raised hand or elbow held near the Lexus emblem to effortlessly open the door. Four high-resolution cameras mounted on the front, sides and rear of the vehicle give drivers a bird's-eye view of the near environment. The RX has also been technologically equipped for ultimate connectivity and ease of use. This new era of Lexus maintains its reputation for offering much more than any other vehicle in its class, including an unbeatable blend of luxury and performance. When it comes to upmost value and reliability without sacrificing comfort or convenience, you can’t surpass the 2017 Lexus RX.
