Lexus is known for making some of the most refined, reliable, and comfortable luxury vehicles in the market. From the elegant Lexus LS sedan to the sporty Lexus LC coupe, Lexus has always delivered on its promise of creating amazing experiences for its customers.
But what if Lexus decided to take its luxury game to the next level? What if Lexus decided to create the ultimate three-row luxury SUV, one that would offer unparalleled space, comfort, technology, and performance? What if Lexus decided to make the 2024 Lexus TX?
That's exactly what Lexus has done with its latest model, revealed at the 2023 Los Angeles Auto Show. The 2024 Lexus TX is not just a three-row luxury SUV, it’s a three-row luxury SUV that sets a new benchmark for the segment. It's a vehicle that combines the best of Lexus’ craftsmanship, innovation, and vision. It’s a vehicle that is meant to satisfy, impress, and delight.
What Is It?
The 2024 Lexus TX is a seven-seater, mid-size, premium SUV that is based on the same platform as the popular RX model. It features a 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 290 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. It also offers a hybrid option that combines a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors for a total output of 308 horsepower and 247 pound-feet of torque, paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Both versions are available with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
The SUV can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 7.3 seconds for the gas model and 7.9 seconds for the hybrid model. The top speed is electronically limited to 112 mph for both versions. The fuel economy is estimated at 22 mpg city / 28 mpg highway / 24 mpg combined for the gas model and 30 mpg city / 28 mpg highway / 29 mpg combined for the hybrid model.
The luxury SUV also has a sophisticated suspension system with adaptive dampers, active anti-roll bars, and air springs. The driver can choose from four driving modes: Eco, Normal, Sport, and Custom. Each mode adjusts the power delivery, throttle response, steering feel, suspension settings, traction control, stability control, and air suspension height according to the driving situation.
