The concept of the new Lexus NX

The new Lexus NX makes important advances in many fields. These include a new design language, Lexus' first plug-in hybrid, a connected and exhilarating driving experience with the Lexus Driving Signature, an intuitive driver-focused cockpit in line with the new Tazuna architecture, and the use of advanced human-centric technologies for enhanced safety and comfort. Lexus has implemented major changes in vehicle development in the NX. Digital modeling and computer technologies enabled smarter development and higher levels of quality assurance. At the same time, the skills of the Takumi master craftsmen and their hands, ears and eyes remain indispensable to achieve the highest sensory quality. Another innovation was the use of professional racing drivers to fine-tune the vehicle's dynamic characteristics - especially steering and brakes - at Lexus' Shimoyama proving ground. The early use of new technologies ensures maximum safety and comfort; at the same time, limiting costs ensures that the technologies are affordable for customers.
