If you’re looking for a compact crossover with a luxury cabin, check out the new 2025 Lexus NX. You can customize your NX with a range of trim levels, from the upscale base model to the pure luxury and power of the NX 450 range. Our experts here at Lexus of Stevens Creek know each trim level inside and out and can help you decide which one is right for you.
2025 Lexus NX: Trims Compared
The 2025 NX fits neatly into the compact crossover class. With spacious seating for five people and about 22 cubic feet of cargo storage at the rear, Lexus NX models are ideal for transporting your family and running errands around town.
Performance
One of the main distinguishing features of each Lexus NX trim is the engine options. The base engine is a four-cylinder unit that outputs 203 horsepower. For more power, look at the turbo-four option, which churns out a solid 275 horsepower. If you’re interested in hybrids, opt for a 240-horsepower powertrain with the standard four-cylinder engine and two electric motors. To balance power and fuel efficiency, the more potent plug-in hybrid engine puts out 304 horsepower and gives you 37 miles of all-electric driving.
2025 Lexus NX 250
Along with the base four-cylinder engine, the NX 250 starting trim features synthetic leather upholstery, heated and power-adjustable front seats, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The infotainment system includes a 9.8-inch touch screen, a 10-speaker stereo, and a 7-inch digital display to track your NX’s performance, as well as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. The dual-zone automatic climate control system keeps everyone comfortable, while the power liftgate makes loading up your NX a breeze.
The next trim level up is the 250 AWD. It’s essentially the same as the standard NX 250, but it comes with all-wheel drive (AWD), as opposed to the base trim’s standard front-wheel-drive system.
2025 Lexus NX 350 AWD
The NX 350 offers a powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engine and standard AWD. The Luxury package is also available at this level, which includes a 14-inch touch screen, premium stereo, and head-up display.
The Lexus NX 350 F Sport Handling AWD trim has many of the same features, but it benefits from a sportier driving dynamic thanks to the F Sport design and components, including front sport seats, adaptive suspension, and 20-inch wheels.
2025 Lexus NX 350h AWD
The 350h AWD shares its interior design and features with the standard 350. However, the big difference is its hybrid powertrain, which boosts your fuel economy to 41 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway — a massive improvement over the base model’s 26 mpg city and 33 mpg highway.
Lexus NX 450h+ AWD
The new Lexus NX features a plug-in hybrid setup if you want an even more efficient driving experience. The 450h+ AWD’s hybrid powertrain consists of a battery pack, four-cylinder engine, and electric motors, which puts out 304 horsepower.
The Lexus NX 450h+ F Sport Handling AWD is the plug-in hybrid equivalent of the 350h F Sport, featuring the same sporty upgrades we outlined above. If you want the best combination of performance, fuel efficiency, and interior luxury, this is it.
What’s New for 2025
The Lexus NX 2025 has much in common with the 2024 model, but new standard features include rain-sensing windshield wipers and an automatic parking assist. Higher Lexus trim levels also offer a new macadamia-colored leather interior and two additional USB ports.
Lexus NX vs. the Competition
Lexus stands out from the competition for its refined ride and interior luxury. The NX is in a competitive class, alongside rivals such as the Audi Q3 and Mercedes-Benz GLA. Some of these vehicles offer more horsepower on paper, but the NX’s combination of power and refined handling gives it the edge. Other vehicles struggle to surpass the NX’s variety of powertrain options, with everything from a turbocharged gas-powered engine to plug-in hybrid systems on offer.
While there wasn’t a major redesign for the 2025 Lexus NX, the updates help ensure that the NX maintains its leading-class position for upscale luxury with plenty of space.
