2018 Lexus NX: What We are Excited About

When introduced in 2014, no one predicted that the Lexus NX would become a worldwide sensation, outperforming sales forecasts in all markets around the world. Unveiled at the 2017 Shanghai Motor Show, the new 2018 NX has more to offer and we are excited to see what upgrades Lexus has made on this model

Exterior
The entire fascia of the new 2018 NX has been refreshed and we think it is beautiful. The upper portion of the grille and the front bumpers have been redesigned to fluidly blend into the hood and front doors. This results in a sleeker overall shape and excellent aerodynamics. In the rear, the bumper has been redesigned as well. They have also reshaped the exhaust tips, added 18-inch wheels, and added a popular feature in many newer vehicles: a kick sensor that opens the trunk.



Interior
The interior of the new NX has been slightly changed for a more luxurious feel with a couple of newly added upgrades. These upgrades include a new metallic finish for several buttons, knobs, and redesigned HVAC controls. We are also very excited about the larger display screen that has been added. Increasing from seven inches to 10.3-inches, the screen is also controlled by a remote touchpad, perfect for all of us tech-savvy individuals.

Safety
To stay competitive, more safety features have been added to the 2018 NX. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) rated the NX a Top Safety Pick+ and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave it five stars overall. Most importantly, the formerly optional Lexus Safety System+ has become standard on all 2018 NX models. All models now come equipped with adaptive cruise control, lane-departure alert, forward-collision warnings, and automatic emergency braking.




These are only a few of the many upgrades that have been made on the new NX. Follow our blog and will keep you updated about when the new 2018 NX is in stock at Larry H. Miller Lexus Spokane.
