If you're in the market for a luxury SUV, two models will stand out in your search: the 2025 Lexus UX and the 2025 Acura MDX. This isn't your typical comparison, though: the Lexus UX is a compact SUV, and the Acura MDX is a three-row midsize crossover SUV. However, that doesn't mean we can't figure out which one best suits your lifestyle. Here at Lexus Stevens Creek in San Jose, California, we've been helping Bay Area drivers with this sort of decision for years. We understand why this comparison matters. You may be downsizing from a larger vehicle or, conversely, considering something bigger; either way, you'll want to know which vehicle offers the best value for your money. You'll want a vehicle that delivers performance and daily driving that makes sense in our Silicon Valley traffic. In this guide, our team will examine how these two luxury options compare to one another. more Size and Class Reality Check The 2025 Lexus UX and 2025 Acura MDX aren't direct competitors. The UX is compact, seating five people, while the MDX, as a midsize model, accommodates seven passengers across three rows. If you live in the Bay Area, you'll already be familiar with the challenges of parking. The UX's smaller size makes life easier, allowing you to fit into parking spots in Palo Alto. Try squeezing the MDX into downtown San Jose, and you'll appreciate just how difficult that can be. Family size is an important factor. If you have two children and don't regularly haul extra people, then the UX might provide all the space you need. The MDX makes more sense when you're regularly carrying more than five people or when you need maximum cargo space for those Tahoe weekends. The impact of this car brand comparison will ultimately depend on your lifestyle. Both vehicles offer luxury, but the UX delivers it in a package that's more compact and nimble. Performance and Engine Breakdown If you compare the car engines, you're looking at different dynamics. The Lexus UX features a hybrid setup that combines a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with electric motors, yielding a total output of 196 horsepower. The Acura MDX is powered by a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that produces 290 horsepower. The MDX wins on sheer power, but that may not be the most important priority when considering Bay Area driving conditions. The UX hybrid excels in stop-and-go traffic on U.S. 101 or Interstate-280, with an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of 45 mpg in the city and 41 mpg on the highway for a combined 43 mpg. The MDX achieves only 20 mpg in the city, with an EPA-rated fuel economy of 19 mpg for the base model and 17 mpg for the Type S. The UX feels quick around town; its electric torque kicks in instantly, so you can even merge onto the extremely busy Lawrence Expressway with confidence. The MDX has more acceleration for highway passing, but there may not be many occasions when you need that extra power. For our local driving, with high volumes of traffic, frequent stopping, and some hills, the UX powertrain makes more sense. The hybrid system efficiently handles all these factors, and you won't need to constantly feed it premium gas as you would with the MDX. Interior Space and Comfort Here's where size differences become apparent. The MDX, built for families who need every cubic foot, excels in terms of overall passenger space and cargo room. But the UX may surprise you with how it uses its smaller footprint. The UX front seats are genuinely comfortable for adults. The rear seats are suitable for children or average-sized adults on shorter trips. The cargo space accommodates groceries, gym bags, and weekend gear. The MDX offers a third row and a large cargo area, but you may want to consider how often you'll need this feature. While both vehicles have solid tech packages, the UX's infotainment system feels more intuitive. Climate control works perfectly for our mild California weather, and the smaller cabin heats and cools faster than the MDX's larger space. For car trim level comparison, both brands offer multiple configurations. The UX keeps things simpler with fewer trim levels, while the MDX's numerous options can feel overwhelming. Starting MSRP and Cost of Ownership Cost will also be an important factor in your deliberations. The 2025 Lexus UX MSRP is lower than the 2025 Acura's: the Lexus UX 300h starts at $37,715, while the Acura MDX MSRP is $51,200. This significant difference means that the lower entry cost for the Lexus makes it more accessible to buyers. The highest-cost trim for the 2025 Lexus UX is the UX 300h F Sport Handling, which has an MSRP of $47,750 for the all-wheel-drive version. The 2025 Acura MDX has a $75,250 MSRP for the Type S. Maintenance costs for the UX should also be more affordable, with smaller brakes, simpler systems, and improved fuel economy, all of which means lower long-term ownership costs. The MDX's larger size means pricier tires and brake components, as well as higher insurance premiums. When you factor in our local market conditions — high fuel costs, expensive parking, and premium maintenance rates — the UX's lower cost of ownership becomes even more attractive. Keep an eye on our new Lexus specials to see if we're offering any great deals on your favored UX model. Expert Verdict and Recommendation After looking at both vehicles, the Lexus UX is the smarter choice for most Bay Area drivers. Unless you need three rows, the UX delivers luxury in a more practical package. If you're in the market for a three-row SUV, Lexus also offers the Lexus TX, a luxurious three-row SUV that competes with the MDX. The UX excels at daily commuting. It offers genuine luxury appointments. It won't kill you at the gas pump. It's perfectly sized for our roads and parking situations, and you still get Lexus brand prestige. The MDX is worth considering if you regularly transport large groups or need maximum cargo space. However, for most luxury SUV shoppers, the UX offers better value and a more enjoyable daily driving experience. Check Out the 2025 Lexus UX Today The 2025 Lexus UX represents smart luxury. It delivers the premium experience you want without the excess you don't need. It's the right-sized solution for modern Bay Area life: efficiency, comfort, and style in one package.

The Lexus LX is the flagship SUV for the automaker, and for the first time it's going hybrid. The result is an ultra-luxurious, ultra-capable SUV that offers a smooth, efficient drive. Our team at Lexus of Stevens Creek in San Jose, California, has written this review so you can discover more about the 2025 Lexus LX 700h and learn how many miles per gallon this new hybrid gets. more Brief Overview of the Lexus LX Series The Lexus LX series is a lineup of full-size SUVs that bring rugged capability and luxury refinement together. It's built on a body-on-frame platform, making it tougher and more capable than other unibody SUVs. Introduction to the Hybrid 700h Model The 2025 Lexus LX 700h is the first hybrid LX. A twin-turbo 3.4-liter V-6 gas engine and an electric motor make up its powertrain, combining to generate 457 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque. The advanced hybrid system uses the electric motor as a generator to provide seamless transitions between gas and electric power. The LX 700h has the power to tow up to 8,000 pounds when equipped with the tow package, and it offers features such as Multi-Terrain Select and Crawl Control for when you want to take it on off-road adventures. Lexus LX 700h Fuel Economy Fuel efficiency refers to the distance a vehicle can travel on a gallon of gas. A vehicle's fuel efficiency depends on a variety of factors, including the engine size, number of cylinders in a combustion engine, and whether it uses gas, electricity or a combination of both. Official Miles per Gallon Ratings for the 2025 Lexus LX 700h The LX 700h gets up to 19 mpg in the city and 22 mpg on the highway, with a combined mpg of 20. This compares to 17 mpg in the city, 22 mpg on the highway, and 20 mpg combined for the gas-powered LX. The hybrid system does increase fuel efficiency, but its main goal is to increase performance and torque. The LX 700h is slightly more efficient than the non-hybrid LX 600, which gets 19 mpg combined. In comparison, the Toyota Grand Highlander hybrid will get up to 36 mpg combined, and the BMW X5 hybrid will get up to 23 mpg combined. Driving Experience and Performance Lexus designed the LX 700h's hybrid powertrain to perform on and off the road. Let's look at how it does in both environments. Driving Impressions on the Road The Lexus LX 700h provides a smooth driving experience on the roads around San Jose. The most street-focused model is the F Sport Handling. It has a rear anti-sway bar, an F Sport-tuned suspension, and a rear Torsen limited-slip differential to make handling sharp and responsive. Capability and Performance Off-Road Lexus made the LX 700h to tackle a wide variety of off-road conditions. The addition of the electric motor expands its capabilities by adding power to the low range. The Overtrail is the best model for off-roading adventures. It has 18-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch all-terrain tires and a front skid plate to help protect the important components under the SUV. Design and Comfort As you'd expect from a luxury SUV, the interior is spacious, comfortable, and features upscale materials and high-quality finishes. Interior Features and Luxury The Luxury trim has a heated and ventilated driver's seat, heated second-row seats, and a heated steering wheel. Everyone sits on plush leather upholstery, and the center console features a cool box to keep your snacks and drinks cold. The Ultra Luxury builds on this with even more luxury features, including upgraded leather upholstery, massaging seats, and heated and ventilated power-adjustable, reclining second-row captain's chairs. Exterior Design Highlights The Lexus LX700h rides on 22-inch wheels and comes standard with a sunroof and illuminated door sills. The F Sport Handling has an aerodynamic body kit and a sport-tuned suspension, while the Overtrail has a matte gray grille and dark exterior trim elements. Space and Capacity There are three rows of seats in the LX 700h, with room for up to seven people. The Ultra Luxury offers a four-seat configuration. It eliminates the third row and has second-row captain's chairs, The cargo area has 7.2 cubic feet of storage space with all three rows of seats in use. Folding down the third row opens this up to 30.9 cubic feet, and if you fold down both back rows, you get a cargo area that stretches for 62.4 cubic feet. Safety and Technological Innovations The 2025 Lexus LX 700h is a modern SUV with the latest safety equipment and driver aids. Advanced Safety Features Every trim comes standard with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0.

Its luxury features put it at the top of the pack when it comes to comfort and convenience features. Competitor Analysis There are not many competitors in the three-row hybrid SUV market.

If you've been asking yourself, “What wiper blades go on my Lexus?”, you're not alone. There are more wiper blades available today than ever before, from basic models to fancy high-tech versions, but the right wiper blade replacement can make a real difference to your driving experience. In this article, our team at Lexus of Stevens Creek explains your options so you can keep your windshield clear and see the road ahead. more Types of Wiper Blades Suitable for Lexus Vehicles Each type of wiper has pros and cons based on your driving habits and local weather. Frameless or "boneless" wipers are particularly popular, with their sleek looks, quiet operation, and superior performance in various weather conditions. Your Lexus needs quality wipers, and there are three main options: conventional, beam, and hybrid. Conventional Wiper Blades Conventional wipers have a metal frame with pressure points that hold the rubber blade against your windshield. They're affordable, readily available, and they handle normal rain well. Their main drawback is snow and ice clinging to the exposed metal frames in winter, but if you own an older Lexus model, you may prefer them for their simplicity. Rain-X Expert Fit conventional wipers match Lexus’ original equipment, making them ideal if you want to maintain factory specifications. Beam Wiper Blades Beam wipers offer a more modern approach. They use a curved piece of spring steel with the rubber blade directly attached so that it maintains better contact with the windshield, perfect for aerodynamic Lexus models with curved glass. Bosch Icon beam blades use steel frame tension and quality rubber for even pressure. They make a difference in downpours, and snow doesn't stick to them since there's no framework to trap it. They cost more up front, but you may find the better visibility worth it, especially in Bay Area fog. Hybrid Wiper Blades Hybrid wipers combine the best features from both conventional and beam styles. They keep some structure from traditional designs but add improvements for better contact and performance. Michelin Stealth Ultras use a metal frame like conventional wipers but add pressure points similar to beam-style blades. Hybrid blades are a great choice for your Lexus. They typically outperform basic conventional wipers in bad weather without the premium price of some beam blades. Their familiar design makes them easy to install yourself while still giving you better visibility than the basic options. Benefits of Using Genuine Lexus Wiper Blades Aftermarket wipers might tempt you with lower prices, but genuine Lexus wiper blades offer distinct advantages. They're custom-made for your specific model, guaranteeing a perfect fit and clean action. Lexus engineers created these wipers to match your windshield's exact curve, using technologies such as SMARTFLEX that remove water more effectively. You'll notice the difference when driving in San Jose's occasional downpours. Genuine Lexus blades clear water more completely and run quieter, keeping your cabin peaceful. Many come with 12-month warranty coverage, too, giving you extra protection for your purchase. They might cost a bit more initially, but their better fit and longer life span often make them the smarter financial choice in the long run. Signs Your Lexus Needs New Wiper Blades It's pretty easy to tell when your wiper blades need replacing. Listen for squeaking as they move across the glass, watch for blades that skip, jump, or leave annoying streaks behind, and note physical problems such as loose rubber ends or visible cracks. Most wiper blades need replacing yearly, although you might need more frequent changes due to the Bay Area's mix of dry, dusty summers and rainy seasons. Quick monthly inspections will help catch problems early, keeping your visibility perfect throughout the year. How To Replace Wiper Blades on Your Lexus Swapping the wipers on your Lexus isn't complicated. First, find the right size for your model by checking your owner's manual or looking online for your specific Lexus. Once you've got new wiper blades, follow these simple steps: Lift the wiper arm away from your windshield. Look for a small tab where the blade connects to the arm, press it, and slide the old blade off. Slide the new one on in the opposite direction until you hear it click into place. We recommend putting a soft towel on the windshield before lowering the arm back down, as it'll prevent any accidental glass chips if the arm slips. Test your new wipers after installation to make sure they press evenly against the glass. If you're not confident replacing your wipers yourself, contact our service center or ask us to take care of it during your next oil change. Maintaining Your Lexus Wiper Blades Caring for your wipers can double their life span, saving you money while keeping your view crystal clear. When snow falls, lift your wipers off the glass so they don't freeze and stick — this saves the rubber from damage. Regularly splash some washer fluid on them or wipe them down with a damp cloth to wash away the grit and road debris that wears them down. You should also try to park in shade when possible, as direct sunlight breaks down rubber fast. Additional Accessories for Improving Visibility You can enhance your visibility further with windshield water repellent treatments and specialty wiper blades for extreme weather. These add-ons work with your wipers to keep your view clear in challenging conditions. Windshield Water Repellent Treatments Water-repelling treatments work wonders for fog and rain, creating a surface where water beads up and rolls away, sometimes without needing wipers. Some wipers, such as Rain-X Latitudes, apply this coating while they sweep your windshield. All-Weather and Winter Wiper Blades All-weather or winter wipers are specialized blades that handle harsh conditions far better than standard wipers. Premium options from TRICO or Rain-X feature wind spoilers and special steel frames that keep in contact with your windshield even in harsh weather. Winter-specific wipers use rubber that stays flexible in freezing temperatures and designs that prevent snow buildup. For winter driving, always pair them with antifreeze windshield fluid and keep those fluid levels topped up. Ensure Clear Vision for Your Lexus Whether you go with conventional, beam, or hybrid blades, quality matters most. Find wipers that fit your specific model, check them regularly, and replace them at the first signs of wear. If you need help finding the perfect new wiper blades for your Lexus, our team at Lexus Stevens Creek can recommend, install, and help maintain them for you. Wipers may not be glamorous, but they're essential for enjoying your luxury car in any weather San Jose throws your way. Contact us today and let us help you see the road ahead more clearly.

San Jose, CA, is a vibrant city known for its rich cultural diversity, innovative spirit, and—perhaps most importantly—its incredible food scene. Whether you’re a visitor exploring Silicon Valley or a local looking for your next meal, San Jose’s culinary landscape has something special for everyone. With influences from Mexican, Vietnamese, and farm-to-table California cuisine, the city boasts an impressive array of must-try dishes. From savory tacos to indulgent garlic fries, let’s take a delicious journey through the foods San Jose is famous for. more Vietnamese Pho: A Warm, Flavorful Hug in a Bowl With one of the largest Vietnamese populations in the U.S., it’s no surprise that San Jose is home to some of the best pho you’ll ever have. This fragrant noodle soup, typically made with slow-simmered beef or chicken broth, rice noodles, and fresh herbs, is the ultimate comfort food. Whether you go for a traditional beef pho with rare steak and meatballs or a lighter chicken version, every bowl is packed with deep, aromatic flavors. Local favorites like Pho Kim Long and Pho Y #1 serve up steaming bowls that will warm your soul. Tacos: A Bite of Authentic Mexican Flavor San Jose’s rich Mexican heritage shines through in its taco scene. From street-style taquerias to upscale Mexican restaurants, you’ll find some of the best tacos outside of Mexico right here. Carnitas, al pastor, carne asada—each taco is a little handheld masterpiece. La Victoria Taqueria, famous for its legendary orange sauce, is a must-visit, as well as Tacos El Compa for their perfectly marinated meats and fresh tortillas. Whether you prefer soft corn tortillas or crispy shells, there’s a taco waiting for you in San Jose. Garlic Fries: The Bay Area’s Signature Snack While garlic fries might be associated with the San Francisco Bay Area as a whole, San Jose has truly perfected this crispy, garlicky delight. These fries, tossed generously with fresh garlic and parsley, are a must-try for anyone visiting the city. You’ll find them at SAP Center during a Sharks game or at local spots like SmokeEaters and The Garlicky Pig. Crunchy, flavorful, and a little messy, garlic fries are the ultimate guilty pleasure. Banh Mi: A Perfect Blend of French and Vietnamese Flavors San Jose’s love for Vietnamese cuisine doesn’t stop at pho. The city is also known for its amazing banh mi, a sandwich that blends French baguettes with flavorful Vietnamese fillings. Stuffed with grilled pork, pate, pickled vegetables, and fresh cilantro, this sandwich is the perfect mix of crunchy, savory, and slightly sweet. Head to Lee’s Sandwiches or Duc Huong for a truly authentic banh mi experience. If you’re on the go, this is the perfect meal to grab and explore San Jose’s beautiful parks and neighborhoods. Sourdough Bread: A San Jose Staple with a Twist California is known for its sourdough, and San Jose is no exception. While San Francisco may get all the credit, the South Bay has its own fantastic bakeries serving up fresh, tangy loaves. Whether you enjoy it as part of a hearty sandwich, a side to a warm bowl of clam chowder, or simply toasted with butter, sourdough bread in San Jose is a must-try. Check out The Midwife and The Baker or Manresa Bread for an artisan approach to this classic favorite. Savor San Jose’s Best Bites San Jose’s food scene is a reflection of its diverse culture, offering visitors a taste of something truly special. From the comforting warmth of pho to the irresistible crunch of garlic fries, every bite tells a story of tradition, creativity, and passion for great food. Next time you find yourself in San Jose, make sure to explore these local favorites—you won’t regret it! And if you’re cruising around town in search of the best eats, consider making your trip even smoother with a visit to Lexus Stevens Creek, where luxury and performance meet for an unbeatable driving experience.

Lexus knows how to do luxury effortlessly. It's not all show — it's about real comfort, solid build quality, and that smooth, quiet, luxurious drive. And when it comes to Lexus SUVs, it's the same story. The brand offers smaller crossovers for zipping around town, midsize SUVs that balance space and style, and heavy hitters — the big three-row SUVs that bring serious room and presence on the road. But here's the thing — not all of them are built the same. Even among the largest Lexus SUV models, there's a difference in vibe, purpose, and personality. So, if you're wondering, “Which is the biggest Lexus,” you're in the right spot. Our team at Lexus of Stevens Creek will explain the full lineup to help you understand how each model stacks up. From the city-smart TX to the commanding LX, here's what you need to know about Lexus SUV sizes and which one might be your perfect fit. more Lexus LX: The Flagship Model The Lexus LX isn't just the flagship Lexus SUV; it's the benchmark for what the brand calls luxury and capability. At over 200 inches long, it's also the first Lexus SUV to cross that threshold. It's wide, tall, and grounded on a 112.2-inch wheelbase, making it one of the most commanding presences in the Lexus SUV lineup. But the size isn't just for show. Behind the second row, you get 41 cubic feet of cargo space. Fold those seats down, and there are 71 cubic feet to work with — more than enough for road trip luggage, photography gear, or camping gear. The cabin isn't just for cargo; it's built for comfort, too. Front passengers get a generous 41.1 inches of legroom, and even second-row passengers get 36.6 inches. Powering this beauty is a twin-turbo V-6 that cranks out 409 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and full-time four-wheel drive. That torque kicks in early, giving the LX a confident and responsive drive, even when you're hauling up a steep incline or threading through a snowy backroad. If you want more composure in corners, the F SPORT trim tightens up the suspension for you. Inside, this SUV pulls out all the stops, with rich leather, wood grain accents, and smoked chrome lining the cabin. The wide center console makes the driver's seat feel like a command center. And if you opt for the Ultra Luxury trim, the third row disappears and is replaced by two reclining captain's chairs in the second row, separated by a full-length center console. Rear-seat screens, wireless charging, and a VIP driving experience come standard. The LX isn't just one of the biggest Lexus SUVs — it might just be the most luxurious Lexus SUV, too. Lexus TX: A New Contender in the Lineup The Lexus TX is still new to the scene, but it's already earned its place in the lineup, especially if you're after space. Measuring 203.1 inches long, the TX is officially the largest Lexus SUV, surpassing even the long-standing LX. If you've been asking which Lexus SUV is the largest, the TX is your answer. And it's not just longer — it's smarter with its space. With the second and third rows folded, you'll get an impressive 97 cubic feet of cargo capacity, 26 cubic feet more than the LX. Inside, the TX seats up to seven, or six if you opt for second-row captain's chairs — ideal for keeping things peaceful between siblings. Legroom is generous across all three rows, and Lexus didn't skimp on comfort. Standard features ambient lighting, a power-adjustable steering column, and heated and power-adjustable front seats. When comparing Lexus SUVs based on size, the TX is notable not only for its size but also for balancing practicality with luxury. It's an excellent choice for families who desire space, convenience, and everything Lexus has to offer in terms of refinement. Lexus GX: Balancing Size and Off-Road Capability The Lexus GX isn't simply an SUV for luxury — it's an all-out off-road vehicle that refuses to hide behind its heritage. Towering at over 75 inches tall and 197.1 inches long, it's the tallest Lexus SUV on the road today, ranking just behind LX and TX in overall size. And if you want to bring gear, groceries, or both aboard, the GX has as much as 90.5 cubic feet of cargo volume on Overtrail trims — more than enough for road trip supplies or camping equipment. The GX combines premium comfort with serious off-road capability. Under the hood, a 349-horsepower twin-turbo V-6 is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and full-time four-wheel drive. The Overtrail and Overtrail+ trims are built for adventure — they come with a 1-inch suspension lift, 33-inch all-terrain tires, adaptive suspension for better wheel articulation, crawl control, and drive modes for different terrains. It's a setup that lets the GX handle rough trails without giving up the luxury touches you'd expect from Lexus. While it might not be the biggest Lexus SUV, the GX brings a level of versatility that's hard to beat, whether you're climbing over boulders or packing up for a weekend getaway. Which Lexus SUV Is Right for You? If you're still unsure which Lexus SUV model is right for you, here's a quick breakdown. The LX has a starting MSRP of $106,850 and is the most luxurious and biggest Lexus SUV, built for drivers who want serious power, luxury, and space. On the other hand, the TX is the best value — it's roomy, modern, and has a starting MSRP of $56,490. The GX, with a starting MSRP of $65,585, is your go-to choice for weekend trails without giving up daily comfort. Lexus covers all the bases, so you can choose a model that suits your lifestyle and needs.

You can use this Lexus TX review to see if the TX is right for you. If you're looking to test-drive either the new 2025 Lexus TX in San Jose, give our team a call at 408-878-4112 more Interior Design and Aesthetics The 2025 Lexus TX's interior is simply luxurious. Every inch of the cabin is crafted for beauty and genuine comfort. You'll find high-end materials everywhere. The semi-aniline leather seats highlight Lexus's dedication to quality craftsmanship, and the perfect stitching and tight panel fits give the interior an elegant ambiance. If you're not into leather, the TX also comes with NuLuxe upholstery, which looks and feels similar to leather but is a more eco-friendly alternative. You can pick from Black, Birch, or Peppercorn for your interior colors. There's also ambient lighting with 14 preset themes you can tweak to set just the right vibe, adding another personal touch. You also have a choice between seating for seven or a six-seat layout with captain's chairs in the middle row. Heated and cooled front seats come standard, too. What's most impressive about the TX is its third row with 33.5 inches of legroom. That's enough space for adults. Technology and Connectivity The 2025 TX comes loaded with tech that'll improve your drive and keep your passengers happy. Right in the middle of the dash, you'll find a 14-inch touch screen that controls pretty much everything — music, maps, and vehicle settings. It's quick to respond and easy to use while you're on the move. Next to it sits a 12.3-inch digital gauge display that gives you clear, custom info. You can set it up to show whatever matters most to you, including traditional gauges, turn-by-turn directions, or driver-assist info. Connecting your phone is a breeze with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There are USB-C ports throughout the cabin so that everyone can stay charged on long trips. Bluetooth comes standard, too, for hands-free calls and music streaming. One cool available feature is the Digital Key function. It lets you use your phone to unlock and start your TX. You can also check on your vehicle from anywhere using the Lexus app. Music lovers will appreciate the optional 21-speaker Mark Levinson sound system. This premium audio setup delivers crystal clear sound with deep bass that fills every corner of the cabin. No matter what you're playing or where you're sitting, your tunes will sound great. Practicality and Cargo Space The 2025 TX really shines when it comes to practicality. It has tons of cargo room and clever storage spots throughout the cabin. The center console is deep, the door pockets are handy, and the seatback pockets give extra options for organizing your things. With all seats up, you get 20.2 cubic feet behind the third row — plenty for groceries or bags for your weekend trips. Fold the back row down, and the cargo room jumps to 57.4 cubic feet. If you need to haul something big, fold both rear rows for a massive 97 cubic feet of space. Power-folding second-row seats come standard, and a power-folding third row is available. Getting stuff in and out is simple thanks to the hands-free power liftgate on all TX models. Just wave your foot under the bumper when your arms are full. Safety and Driver-Assistance Features Safety comes first in the 2025 TX, with loads of driver aids built right into the interior. Every TX comes with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, which includes forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, lane-keeping assist, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, dynamic cruise control, and road sign detection. Working together, these systems create a safety net that helps prevent accidents or reduces how bad they might be. All important safety info appears on the instrument display or the optional head-up display so that you can stay informed without taking your eyes off the road. The Lexus TX vs. Competing Models Stack the 2025 TX against its rivals, such as the Volvo XC90 and Audi Q7, and it holds its ground and even pulls ahead in some areas. When it comes to interior space, the TX is roomier than both, especially in that third row. Tech-wise, the TX beats its European competition. The XC90 comes with an 11.2-inch display, and the Q7 sports a 10.1-inch touch screen. The TX's bigger 14-inch screen might win you over. Is the 2025 Lexus TX Right for You? This Lexus three-row SUV's interior delivers a luxurious driving experience. If you're looking for an upscale SUV with a roomy cabin, cutting-edge tech, and a thoughtful design, the TX is an excellent choice.

If you're in the market for a luxury SUV, the Lexus GX and LX should be at the top of your list. These luxury vehicles feature three rows of seating, making them excellent for your family excursions. In this article, our team at Lexus Stevens Creek compares the Lexus GX and LX to help you decide which one fits your lifestyle. If you're looking to test-drive either the new Lexus GX or Lexus LX in San Jose, give our team a call at 408-878-4112 more Introduction to the Lexus GX and LX Models The Lexus LX was introduced in 1996 as the brand's flagship SUV, delivering full-size luxury with real off-road credentials. It grew from a rebadged Land Cruiser to an upscale model in its own right, boasting stylish lines and cutting-edge safety tech. Representing a shift to improved efficiency and performance through turbocharged and hybrid powertrains, the latest LX generation is a big step in the right direction. The Lexus GX debuted in 2002 as a midsize compromise, suitable for trails and daily driving. Famed for its body-on-frame construction, the GX became popular among families and adventure-seekers. Recent updates introduced modern technology, a more aggressive design, and a continued commitment to off-road durability. The GX and LX represent Lexus's dedication to building luxury SUVs that don't compromise on performance, comfort, and capability. Design and Exterior Differences One of the biggest changes is the rear door setup. A side-hinged rear door with a rear-opening glass window offers quick access to small items in the Lexus GX. This is based on its heritage of off-road utility design. The Lexus LX has a traditional top-hinge power liftgate, which simplifies loading in cramped areas. The GX has a square, muscular appearance with a high, trail-ready stance. The LX is more elegant with smoother bodywork, a more prominent spindle grille, and sleeker lighting signatures for a more premium look. Both models feature a choice of exterior colors such as Eminent White Pearl, Caviar, and Nori Green Pearl. Interior and Space Comparison While the Lexus GX and LX offer luxurious interiors, they cater to different space, technology, and flexibility needs. The GX typically seats up to seven passengers, while available second-row captain's chairs reduce this capacity to six. Given the tighter space, its third row is best suited for occasional use or younger passengers. Although the LX also accommodates up to seven, it offers more spacious third-row seating and added comfort features, making it better suited for long trips with full occupancy. The GX's cargo space is limited when the third row is used, but folding the seats flat significantly expands its utility. Its side-hinged rear door and swing-out design can limit access in tight spaces. The LX offers more cargo capacity overall and features a power liftgate with fold-flat third-row seats for a larger load floor area and greater flexibility. Performance and Driving Dynamics The LX offers two engine options. The traditional gas-powered 3.4-liter twin-turbo V-6 is paired with a 10-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with paddle shifters, producing 409 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. This setup provides 17 mpg in the city, 22 mpg on the highway, and 19 mpg combined. The hybrid option adds an electric motor to generate 457 horsepower and 583 pound-feet of torque, providing 19 mpg in the city, 22 mpg on the highway, and 20 mpg combined. The Lexus GX features a 3.4-liter twin-turbo V-6 engine matched to a 10-speed automatic transmission that generates 349 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. This engine provides an EPA-estimated 15 mpg in the city, 21 mpg on the highway, and 17 mpg combined. Both luxury SUVs feature full-time four-wheel drive, which gives you more control and traction in various conditions and surfaces. Safety and Technology Features The Lexus GX and LX offer advanced safety and technology features to enhance driver confidence, passenger comfort, and overall convenience. Both models include Lexus Safety System+ as standard, featuring a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane departure alert, dynamic radar cruise control, and intelligent high beams. The LX offers available features such as lane tracing assist, a 360-degree camera system, and traffic sign recognition for added situational awareness and driver support. The GX introduces the latest Lexus Interface system with a large 14-inch touch screen and intuitive access to navigation, audio, and vehicle settings. It also supports wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and voice-activated controls for a user-friendly, connected driving experience. The LX features a slightly smaller but equally refined 12.3-inch touch screen powered by Lexus Interface. The LX's setup, paired with a secondary 7-inch climate and vehicle control screen, offers a split-function display approach for enhanced multitasking and control. Which Model Is Right for You? Choosing between the Lexus GX and LX depends on how you plan to use your SUV and what features matter most. The Lexus GX is ideal if you value off-road capability, classic SUV toughness, and a more accessible price point. With its body-on-frame construction and high ground clearance, it's an excellent choice for your family excursions and weekend adventures. The Lexus LX is perfect if you want superior luxury and exceptional power. It's better if you prioritize spaciousness, cutting-edge technology, and a smoother ride for long-distance travel, urban commuting, or towing with confidence. Its hybrid option is also appealing if you're looking for increased efficiency without sacrificing capability. If your lifestyle leans toward rugged and you value simplicity and durability, the GX delivers. If you want prestige, comfort, and all-around versatility, the LX is the one you want.
