The NX200t’s interior exhibits everything that is great about the way Lexus puts together a cabin. The fit, finish and cosseting sense of luxury is apparent whether you’re the driver or passenger. Some of the team finds the driver’s area a little on the cramped side, but there’s no doubt the NX feels a lot sportier than an average SUV from behind the wheel.
Part of that luxurious feel comes from the smooth engine and gearbox combination, the almost seamless shifting, and the insulation within the cabin we’ve come to expect from Lexus. The NX is almost silent around town up to 60km/h. Silence might be the most intangible factor of a truly luxurious interior and the engineers at Lexus do it very well.
While the interior mirrors the exterior’s dramatic styling, it certainly isn’t distasteful or ugly. In fact, it manages to catch the eye but remain a little understated. The 7.0-inch screen is ok, while the touchpad (Lexus Remote Touch Interface) might take some getting used to. It works very effectively once you master it though. It’s a vast improvement on the system it replaces, that’s for sure.
Some of the standard equipment highlights include LED daytime running lights, LED headlights, reverse camera and parking sensors, satellite-navigation, a ten-speaker audio system, Bluetooth phone connectivity and audio streaming, leather accents for the interior trim, heated and cooled front seats, stop/start and 18-inch alloy wheels.
