About The Lexus TX
Lexus has decided to retire the RX-L, and instead offer a totally new design that makes more room for three rows of seats. Introducing the all-new TX, a three-row luxury SUV that not only offers seating for 7, but will actually fit adults in the third row of seats. This is one of, but not the only, big advantage the TX holds over the RX-L. The Lexus TX also offers three different drivetrain options, including a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid. This kind of versatility and wide range of available options is where the TX shines. Tons of cargo space, even with the third row of seats in use, and an impressive towing capacity make it just as easy to haul cargo as it is to haul people. And it wouldn’t be a Lexus without an impressive list of standard luxury features, like heated front seats, ambient lighting, multi-zone climate control, and the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 suite of safety and driver assistance technology.
What the Critics Say
"Lexus has also focused on making its cabin quieter, posher and more refined than its Toyota cousin. There are more sound-deadening materials, including high-damping door and roof mastic seals and silencing materials under the cargo floor, and various welds and adhesives in the structure to make it more rigid and rattle-free." - Forbes
"Every TX comes standard with an impressive array of electronic driver assist and safety systems to help you on the move. Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 — which includes adaptive cruise control, precollision safety systems, and lane keeping and lane departure systems with steering assist, just to name a few — helps you traverse suburban chaos and reduce the stress and fatigue common on long commutes and road trips." - Edmunds
Lexus TX Features
Unrivaled Versatility
The TX is all about maximizing interior space, with 20.1 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third-row seats, 57.4 cubic feet of cargo space with the third row folded down, and a massive 97 cubic feet with both the second and third rows folded down. You get a choice for the second row of either a three-seat bench or two captain’s chairs, and whichever configuration you go with, everyone will be able to plug into a charging port, thanks to the 7 UBS-C ports around the cabin. There are even more choices when it comes to the drivetrain. The standard engine is a 2.4-liter four-cylinder that makes 275 horsepower. That’s enough to make the TX plenty peppy, but those wanting more power can have that engine mated to a hybrid system for a combined system horsepower of 366. And the top-spec TX 550h+ Luxury comes with a plug-in hybrid system that produces 406 horsepower and can travel up to 33 miles on all-electric power. All-wheel drive comes standard with both of the hybrid systems, and is optional with the conventional engine. F-SPORT models even get Adaptive Variable Suspension and four-wheel steering.
Uncompromising Luxury
Lexus doesn’t think that you should have to sacrifice comfort for more seating, and the TX offers a refined ride and an exceptionally quiet cabin. Many of the standard features on the TX would be optional extras from other manufacturers as well, including heated seats, wireless phone charging, and ambient lighting. The TX has a very large 14-inch Lexus Interface touchscreen, and a customizable 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. This makes it easy to see all the information you need, as well as operate things like navigation and the radio. If you need more, there is an available head-up display, so you don’t have to take your eyes off the road at all. Standard 20-inch wheels (or available 22-inch wheels) give the TX some extra stylish flair outside, and the inside has a more open and airy feel thanks to an available panoramic glass roof. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility come standard, and if you really want to make the most of this, there is an available Mark Levinson 21-speaker PurePlay Surround Sound.
Advanced Safety
Safety is always one of the more important features of a family vehicle, and Lexus is absolutely an industry leader in this field. The TX comes with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, a highly advanced suite of active safety technologies. This includes things like blind spot monitoring and a rear cross-traffic alert. And the TX doesn’t stop keeping you safe once you’ve parked, a Digital Latch with Safe Exit Assist keeps back seat occupants from simply flinging open the door and jumping out if there is traffic approaching. There is an available front cross-traffic alert as well, for those difficult-to-see-around corners. And the available traffic jam assist will help cut down on driver fatigue. The available head-up display keeps you from having to take your eyes off the road, and all-wheel drive lets you stay in control even in brutal Ohio winters.
