The Lexus NX 350 2025 feels like that one friend who always shows up looking sharp—effortlessly balancing style, comfort, and performance. Now refreshed with a sleeker design and a new F Sport Handling trim, this second-generation model builds on its reputation as a refined, tech-savvy luxury SUV. It’s not yet reintroduced in India (discontinued in 2019), but globally, it continues to shine—priced between ₹35–43 lakh (approx.), the NX 350 is still a strong rival to the Audi Q3 and BMW X1.
Under the hood, it’s got serious muscle—a 2.4L turbocharged four-cylinder engine pushing 275 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque, delivering a smooth yet spirited drive whether you’re gliding down highways or navigating busy city roads. It also manages up to 25 mpg combined, making it a smart pick for those who crave performance without the guilt.
Sleek, Sporty, and Ready for City Life
At 4,660 mm long and 1,865 mm wide, the NX 350 finds that sweet spot between compact agility and premium presence. Its 205 mm ground clearance and 19- or 20-inch alloy wheels give it SUV confidence while keeping it nimble in tight urban spaces. The refreshed 2025 styling turns heads—sharper LED matrix headlamps, an assertive spindle grille, and sculpted LED taillamps blend aggression with elegance.
Color options like Atomic Silver, Cloudburst Gray, and Ultra White add personality, while roof rails and wide door openings make practicality part of its DNA. Inside, there’s 813L of cargo space (expandable to 2,100L), making it surprisingly functional for weekend escapes.
Luxury Cabin with Everyday Comforts
Step inside, and you’re greeted by Lexus’ signature craftsmanship—a minimalist yet tech-rich cabin that radiates calm luxury. The leatherette seats offer plush comfort, with heated fronts in higher trims and 60:40 split-folding rears for versatility. The 14-inch touchscreen (on top trims) pairs seamlessly with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, while the 10-inch digital cluster keeps things clear and modern.
A dual-zone climate control system, ambient LED lighting, and a panoramic sunroof elevate comfort, while practical touches like wireless charging, cup holders, and ample storage remind you that Lexus builds with real-life usability in mind. Add a 10-speaker audio system, and it’s a cocoon of quiet refinement—perfect for those long drives or chaotic commutes.
Turbocharged Power, Smooth Handling
The 2.4L turbo isn’t just about numbers—it’s about experience. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, the NX 350 can sprint from 0–100 km/h in 7.2 seconds, with a top speed around 180 km/h. Whether it’s the FWD or AWD setup, the SUV delivers composed, confident handling. Thanks to MacPherson struts upfront and a multi-link rear suspension, it soaks up rough roads with ease while staying planted on corners.
Real-world mileage hovers around 19–25 mpg, with a 55L tank that stretches 1,000+ km between refuels—though premium petrol is recommended. It’s quick, quiet, and incredibly refined—everything a luxury crossover should be.
Safety That Inspires Confidence
Every NX 350 comes standard with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, offering adaptive cruise control, lane-tracing assist, and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection. Add to that eight airbags, blind-spot monitoring, a 360° camera, and ISOFIX anchors, and it’s clear why the SUV boasts 5-star NHTSA and IIHS ratings. In short—it’s one of the safest rides in its class.
Price, Ownership, and Verdict
Globally priced between ₹35–43 lakh, the NX 350 2025 offers luxury without excess. Maintenance stays low with yearly service costs around ₹4,000–₹5,000, a 3-year/unlimited km warranty, and an impressive 75% resale value after three years.
For those who crave refined performance, everyday comfort, and timeless design, the Lexus NX 350 2025 hits the sweet spot. It’s not the flashiest, nor the fastest—but it’s polished, dependable, and effortlessly classy—a luxury crossover built for real life.
