Lexus India has introduced the NX 350h Overtrail edition, priced at Rs 71.17 lakh (ex-showroom, India). With minor tweaks to match the theme this version aims to generate an outdoor-inspired vibe.
Exterior Features
The exterior of the Lexus 350h Overtrail edition is distinguished by its exclusive paint shade named 'Moon Desert', reminiscent of the paint scheme found on the Thar Earth Edition. Furthermore, several blacked-out components like the roof rails, door handles, wing mirrors, and grille accentuate the tough look. The SUV has new alloy wheels and tires to go with its outdoor-focused design. While the NX 350h F-Sport, Exquisite, and Luxury variants feature 20-inch alloys with 235/50 tyres, the Overtrail model sports 18-inch matte black alloys paired with 235/60-section tyres, aimed at enhancing performance on rough terrain.
Interior Highlights
Moving to the interior of the Lexus NX 350h Overtrail, it boasts a synthetic black leather interior accented with earthy-colored highlights on trim pieces like the front armrest, seat edges, and door panels. Feature-wise, the NX 350h includes a leather-wrapped steering wheel with a heating function, electrically adjustable seats, ventilated front seats, a powered tailgate, a Mark Levinson 17-speaker audio system, and an ADAS suite, among others.
Powertrain and Suspension
Under the hood, the Lexus NX 350h Overtrail edition shares its powertrain with the NX 350h F-Sport, featuring the brand's variable dampers system. It is propelled by a 2.5-liter petrol engine coupled with two electric motors—one in the front and one in the rear—yielding a total system output of 243hp. Power is transmitted to all wheels through a 6-step e-CVT gearbox.
Rivalry and Competition
In terms of competition, the NX 350h rivals other luxury SUVs in its segment, including the Audi Q5 (Rs 65.18 lakh), BMW X3 (Rs 68.5 lakh), Mercedes-Benz GLC (Rs 74.45 lakh), and Volvo XC60 (Rs 68.9 lakh).
