The 2024 TX represents the first of its kind. Lexus introduced the new premium SUV with three rows of seats to the North American market.
TX is the first Lexus to be assembled at the Toyota Motor Manufacturing in Indiana and is based on the GA-K platform. It is built to provide space, comfort, and luxury, adapting to the Japanese automaker's values.
The vehicle comes with all-wheel drive in all its versions. Lexus offers a 2.4-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, a Parallel (mild) Hybrid version, and a plug-in hybrid version for the SUV. The basic gasoline engine can also be paired with front-wheel drive.
The plug-in hybrid version found on the TX 550h+ version is based on a 3.5-liter V6 engine and is complemented by a CVT transmission to produce a power output of 406 hp (411 Ps). The mild hybrid version comes with a six-speed automatic transmission, while the turbocharged gasoline engine is enhanced by an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The vehicle's exterior is shaped to enhance its aerodynamic performance, with engineers striving to achieve optimal results while maintaining the body's size in order to provide enough comfort for passengers across all three rows of seats. The headlights appear to be linked by an opening in the hood, while the L-shaped taillights give the impression of emerging from a continuous strip of light.
Four grades are available for the 2024 Lexus TX: Standard, Premium, Luxury, and F SPORT Performance. These grades offer many optional features that help the vehicle have a more customizable appearance.
There are 22-inch wheels available for Luxury grade as an optional feature and as a standard for the F SPORT Performance to replace the basic 20-inch wheels. Many color options are also available based on the grade of the SUV.
With a focal point on making every seat in the car enjoyable, Lexus has developed a technologized interior with many features and storage devices throughout the vehicle. There are seven charging ports and three power outlets to ensure that all the rows receive equal treatment when it comes to staying connected.
Interior customization isn't only defined by the palette of colors available for the vehicle. The second row can also be configured as two captain chairs or a folding bench. To boost the accessibility to the third row, the bench folds almost instantly at the touch of a button.
Even with the third row of seats in place, the cargo space is ample enough to fit seven suitcases but can be extended up to 97 cubic feet (2,750 liters).
The TX has all the features to perform well on the North American market as it offers top-class comfort, luxury, and power, all combined in a big body seven-seater that can easily accommodate big families.
