2025 Lexus NX 350 vs 2025 Lexus RX 350
Serving Chicago, IL
The compact Lexus NX crossover SUV is a stunning model with high-end features offered across all trim levels. At McGrath Lexus of Chicago, our customers often are torn between the NX and the midsize RX SUV, which sits just above the NX in the 2025 lineup. These models offer a two-row cabin, exceptional features, and engineering. After discovering their differences, which model will stand out as a better option for your next purchase?
Performance
The 2025 Lexus NX 350 is the second option in the trim lineup and offers the most powerful gas engine. This crossover SUV uses a four-cylinder, turbo 2.4-liter engine that produces 275 horsepower, paired with an eight-speed auto transmission.
The 2025 Lexus RX 350 is the exclusive gas-powered option available. This crossover SUV is powered by the same turbo 2.4-liter, 275-horsepower engine that is available in the NX 350. It also has the same eight-speed auto transmission.
Appearance
The NX is stunning from every angle, with a sporty, sleek shape and a lowered roof line. At the front, the NX shows off a drop-down, flared grille with a radiating mesh design. Triangular air inlets rise up and angle inward to align with the grille's shape. The bold headlights are accented with a sharply slanted LED bar and three LED bulbs.
The RX is a larger SUV with a taller, arched roof. The thick accent that runs along the lower door panels and swoops above the rear fenders adds character. The grille has the same shape as the NX's grille, but it stands apart with a unique mesh pattern. The angled air inlets have the same mesh pattern and a dramatic accent running below them. The LED headlights have the same three-bulb design and are underscored by a bolt of LED light.
Features
The NX 350 is available with all of the packages offered in the 2025 model year. Depending on the package selected, your NX may be equipped with a panoramic glass roof, a Mark Levinson sound system with 17 speakers, a wireless charger, automated parking, heated seats in both rows, a surround-view camera, a head-up display, a 14-inch touch display screen, leather upholstery, a power liftgate, and more.
The RX 350 is available in all but the top package for 2025. Its available features are comparable to those offered with the NX 350. However, it is also available with premium leather upholstery, upgraded ambient lighting, a sport steering wheel, sport front seats, driver's memory settings, parking sensors, a triple-zone climate control system, and a few other features.
