About TX

For years Lexus lost families at the moment they needed a third row. The cramped RX L tried to solve the problem; it did not. The TX, introduced for the 2024 model year, is the real answer: a large, three-row luxury SUV built in Princeton, Indiana, on the same architecture as the Toyota Grand Highlander, and designed from the start with American households, car seats and cross-country road trips in mind.

The TX offers a turbocharged four-cylinder TX 350, a powerful TX 500h F Sport Performance hybrid and a plug-in TX 550h+ that pairs a V6 with electric motors, giving it both strong acceleration and a meaningful electric-only range. Its third row comfortably fits adults and still leaves usable cargo space behind it. Critics have noted that its styling is conservative and that the cabin shares more than a little with its Toyota cousin; supporters reply that space and quiet are the whole point.

The TX competes with the Acura MDX, Infiniti QX60, Genesis GV80, Volvo XC90, BMW X7, Mercedes-Benz GLS, Lincoln Aviator and, on the electric side, Cadillac's Vistiq. It fills the gap between the RX and the body-on-frame GX and LX, and it has become an important volume model in North America, where it is primarily sold.
