Welcoming kids into your family is a joyous time filled with many new experiences and tough decisions, and choosing the perfect family car is one of them. There are numerous factors to consider — and we don’t just mean which seats are the easiest to clean after a backseat snack mess. Of course, finding the perfect balance between luxe and practical is essential, but plenty of interior space is also necessary. After all, not only do you need to fit your ever-growing family in the car, but you’ll also need space for groceries, luggage, and more.
Saying goodbye to your sporty two-door convertible may feel like a sacrifice, but don’t worry. There are plenty of options to ensure you find the perfect balance between luxury, spaciousness, practicality, and safety while still maintaining your style and class. And what better way to experience the best of both worlds than with a Lexus? The current lineup of Lexus SUVs combines practicality with sporty power and a touch of luxury, making a Lexus SUV the ideal option for the modern-day family. But which one is the roomiest and best suited to your family’s needs?
Let’s examine some options and determine which offers the most space for your growing brood. We’ve done the research, so you don’t have to.
2023 Lexus LX
Starting at a substantial $92,160 MSRP, this behemoth of an SUV offers one of the most luxurious rides on the road. Inside, the two-row LX offers plenty of room to comfortably seat five passengers, with wide, cozy, and supportive seats upholstered in quilted leather. The interior has wood trim and smoked-chrome accents, giving it a high-end look and luxurious feel.
For those who want to take things up a notch, the four-passenger Ultra Luxury trim offers an executive-style second-row seat that reclines almost flat for an unbelievably comfortable long drive. Additionally, the LX has an optional third row of seats in the Premium, Luxury, and F Sport trims, allowing up to seven passengers to travel together in sumptuous comfort.
As for cargo space and stretching room, the 2023 Lexus LX is up to par. Here’s a quick look at the interior dimensions of this spacious SUV:
- Legroom (front row/second row/third row): 41.1/36.6/31.1 inches.
- Headroom (front row/second row/third row): 37.8/38.9/35.2 inches.
- Shoulder room (front row/second row/third row): 61.4/58.8/56.1 inches.
- Hip room (front row/second row/third row): 59.6/58.8/49 inches.
- Cargo volume (behind front-row/second-row/third-row seats): 64/44/11 cubic feet.
2023 Lexus NX
With a starting MSRP of $40,205, the 2023 Lexus NX is an excellent choice for those who prefer a luxury SUV in a smaller package. With the latest generation of the NX, cabin design takes a giant leap forward with modern styling and quality materials throughout. The improved seat design helps cushion and support your body in all the right places, while optional features such as a panoramic sunroof, heated rear seats, an ambient interior lighting system with up to 64 color choices, and black open-pore wood trim give you a truly deluxe experience.
When it comes to interior space, the NX offers one of the roomiest cabins in the luxury-subcompact crossover segment, with enough room for five passengers to ride comfortably. The cargo area is also generous, with even more space available when the rear seats are folded down. Here’s a look at the interior dimensions of the 2023 Lexus NX:
- Legroom (front row/second row): 41/36.1 inches.
- Headroom (front/rear): 38.3/38.5 inches (without moonroof), 37.1/38.1 inches (with moonroof), 37.1/37.4 inches (with panorama glass roof).
- Shoulder room (front row/second row): 56.3/54 inches.
- Hip room (front row/second row): 56.3/52.5 inches.
- Cargo volume (behind front-row/second-row seats): 46.9/22.7 cubic feet.
2023 Lexus GX
The 2023 Lexus GX offers a one-of-a-kind balance of off-roading prowess and high-end sophistication. It has a starting MSRP of $59,275 and boasts a roomy interior with seating for up to seven passengers. The GX has three rows, with the second row providing plenty of space for passengers to stretch out and relax. Opting for the captain’s chairs in the second row bumps the seating capacity down to six but provides improved comfort and elbow room between passengers.
The third row is best suited for children or adults on shorter trips but can be folded down to create more room for cargo. The GX also boasts plenty of amenities to keep everyone comfortable, including 10-way power-adjustable front seats, heated and ventilated front seats, heated second-row seats, and a heated steering wheel. Here’s a look at the interior dimensions of this capable SUV:
- Legroom (front row/second row/third row): 42.3/37.6/29.2 inches.
- Headroom (front row/second row/third row): 38/40.4/35.2 inches.
- Shoulder room (front row/second row/third row): 55.4/57.3/54.5 inches.
- Hip room (front row/second row/third row): 56.5/55.2/43.1 inches.
- Cargo volume (behind front-row/second-row/third-row seats): 64.7/44.67/11.6 cubic feet.
2023 Lexus RX
The RX is the brand’s best-selling midsize SUV and comes at a slightly lower starting MSRP of $48,950. It offers roomy interior accommodations but is strictly a two-row affair with comfortable seating for up to five passengers. Creature comforts abound in the RX, making long trips much more enjoyable, including a heated steering wheel, a larger touch-screen infotainment system, and perforated leather seating. The higher-end RX500h F Sport Performance trim adds heavily bolstered front seats and black interior trim to the mix for an added touch of class.
While the RX has slightly less cargo space than the GX and LX, it’s among the roomiest SUVs in the midsize segment. Here’s a look at its interior dimensions:
- Legroom (front row/second row): 41.1/37.4 inches.
- Headroom (front/rear): 39.5/38.6 (without moonroof), 38.1/38.5 (with moonroof).
- Shoulder room (front row/second row): 58.1/56.5 inches.
- Hip room (front row/second row): 56.7/56 inches.
- Cargo volume (behind front-row/second-row seats): 46.2.4/29.6 cubic feet.
