Lexus NX 350 Features: Great Car For Empty Nesters
Becoming an Empty Nester can be daunting for parents. You wonder what you will do when your kids’ schedule is no longer most of your daily routine. Most people have larger vehicles specifically for the purpose of carrying their family around to sporting and school events, extracurricular activities, and traveling, among other things. Once your children are out of the house, what do you need that large SUV for?
Usability
The 2023 Lexus NX 350 becomes a great vehicle for this time in your life, as it’s still an SUV, but it is the right size. With the rear seats up, you will have 22.7 cu.ft. of cargo space, and with them folded, you get 46.9 cu.ft. And the rear seats are comfortable and roomy for you to go visit your children at college, but the NX is not cumbersome and is very comfortable for long trips.
Comfortable & Environmentally Conscious
Every time you drive the Lexus NX, you will love the environmentally friendly NuLuxe leather interior, as the seats are supple and comfortable for all. Every seat will feel right at home for you and your passengers.
More Driving, Less Stopping
EPA estimates say the Lexus NX 350 is able to achieve up to 22 mpg city and 28 mpg highway, respectively, and the NX 350h can give you 41 mpg city and 37 mpg highway, respectively. Further giving you the ability to worry less while you are enjoying your life.
Power & Poise
With the choice of a turbocharged gasoline or hybrid motor, you will feel like there are fewer limitations to what you want. The gas-powered NX 350 comes with a 2.4-liter Turbocharged and Intercooled 4-Cylinder that produces 275 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, while the NX 350h has a total output of 239 horsepower from its 2.5-liter 4-Cylinder and electric motors. The 350’s turbocharged engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, while the 350h uses a CVT. Standard on the NX 350 and 350h is All-wheel drive, allowing you to have more control in a variety of weather and terrain conditions.
Advanced Technology & Safety
There is so much standard technology on the NX that you will wonder why you have lived without it before. Through AT&T, you have a mobile WiFi hotspot, as well as wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. With the beautiful 9.8-inch multimedia touchscreen display, your turn-by-turn navigation shows crystal clear. You can even control your car with the Lexus app on your smartphone. This allows you to start your engine, schedule vehicle service, and get comprehensive health updates on your NX.
Regardless of which engine you choose, the NX 350 and 350h are able to tow up to 2,000 lbs when properly equipped, and both come standard with all-wheel drive to help tackle anything the world throws at you.
Safety is a key part of the NX’s appeal to new and pre-owned buyers.
