Development of the NX’s aerodynamics focused on control technologies that utilize aerodynamic forces on the front, sides, rear and even under the floor to enhance driving performance.

Frame saction connections were reinforced and panel joints strengthened by various means, including expanding the area of joints, optimizing the application of bonding technologies and materials in different locations, and the use of high rigidity foam material in the rear pillars. In addition, a twin hood lock construction design that uses the hood as a rigid member provides excellent front lateral flex rigidity, endowing the NX with exceptional body rigidity.

The 2.4 liter inline 4 cylinder turbo engine revs pleasantly in response to accelerator input, providing outstanding acceleration response and ample driving power. Based on TNGA engine technology, it features a high efficiency twin scroll turbocharger, center direct injection system, and DC motor controlled variable cooling system. Utilizing the ample torque it delivers powerful dynamic performance together with excellent environmental performance and low fuel consumption.

The L shaped light bar rear combination lamp on the rear center and L shaped lamps positioned independently on the rear lenders, that activate in a phased arrangement to express the unique identity of the NX. At night, the light bar lamp is always lit to act as a tail lamp, further emphasizing the rear brand signature. In addition, the Lexus name logo exudes a sleek, modern image.
