What leaked video? What video was leaked?
On June 12, the next-generation Lexus NXcrossover is expected to debut. This information was revealed in the first NX teaser, which Toyota’s luxury brand dropped. This teaser gives us a glimpse of the rear hatch. However, it does not show the entire NX in profile view. We tried to brighten the photo, but it doesn’t reveal much. However, thanks to a video leaked earlier in the year there’s not much to hide.
Lexus continues to plan its next-generation NX teaser campaign. They are right to be proud of the NX’s debut in 2015, and aside from a small refresh in 2018, it has continued to make a mark. Although it isn’t the oldest SUV on this block, the NX is certainly making its mark in years. Lexus is making the most out of the debut. The exterior styling of the NX won’t change despite its age. It retains its sleek crossover lines and bold grille, despite its age. The teaser looks almost identical to the February video leaks. We’re still a few days away from June 12, so it’s very likely that we will get some teaser images for the new NX interior. As the current model’s greenhouse looks very dated, we expect much more changes to that area. If the video leaks are accurate, we can expect a much larger touchscreen that seamlessly integrates with the dash in an even more minimalistic design. However, it won’t be entirely without tactile control. Basic functions will still be accessible, as well as a shifter stalk located in the center console.
Large SUV Delayed Due To Twin-Turbo V8 Development Issues? The new NX should be sharing its platform with the Toyota RAV4. It is likely that some powertrain options will be carried over from the NX’s base model, the 2.5-liter four-cylinder Toyota engine. The NX should also receive the plug-in hybrid setup of the Prime. This can take the SUV to 60 mph in just six seconds and provide over 40 miles of electric-only range.
The new NX will make its debut on June 12th, so all our questions will soon be answered. We’ll be watching for teasers in the meantime.
