Sure is distinctive and super aggressive compared to a lot of its competition. This concept is also super crazy overstyled. But its got an attractive overall shape to it (kind of mimics the RX, at least from the rear window). Those massive flares are definitely going to get toned down and the rear end itself is going to be toned down for sure. Its just way too damn out there to be a production car. BTW the NX will most likely debut with the new 2.0 turbo motor that Toyota/Lexus has been working on in addition to a hybrid powertrain (I think Lexus has trademarked NX200t and NX300h names). Hopefully it puts out at least 250hp. Considering the only other small luxury SUV i'd even bother to look at is the Land Rover Evoque (the BMW X1, and Infiniti JX blends in too much, the Acura ZDX was somewhat of a flop cuz its too compromising), I think the Lexus has a good chance to make a statement. Distinctive styling and the Lexus badge. |

The chief designer at Lexus needs to be punched in the teeth. Or maybe he has been so many times that his mouth looks like the front grill of a new Lexus.

oh damn this leaked early
Apparently its not supposed to leak this early. (someones getting fired lol) Looks quite nice, and much more upscale than the current one. That interior...that touchpad is gone! Seems like thats the direction Lexus is going. Can't blame them, the mousepad was horrible, the touchpad was fine imo but the UI did not work well with either of those input methods. |

Oh look, another crossover/cute-ute blob kind of thing. Neat-o. <yawn>
Don't get me wrong, if this is what the people are demanding, manufacturers should absolutely make them. But man, I am so tired of this kind of thing, personally.

way to "stick it to them" by creating hype for their cars lol..
sad that looks like Lexus is completely moving away from separate L shaped DRLs instead of evolving the look..other than that, think overall improvement over 1st gen NX.. wonder where the interior door handles are, they didn't use the LC ones like they did on the UX..oh nevermind I see them integrated into the arm rest.

Toyota/Lexus will now have to move forward the release date to minimize the "damage" and maximize exposure hype. |

I actually think I like it a lot more than past models, especially the interior.
