TORONTO, AUGUST 7^th, 2025 – Make every moment count with the Lexus NX series. Meticulously crafted to exceed the needs and expectations of Canadian Guests, the NX has become one of Canada’s most popular luxury SUVs. For 2026, Lexus expands the choices by adding three new electrified models to the NX lineup: two F SPORT grades for the hybrid NX 350h and one new choice for the NX 450h+ plug-in hybrid.

“Canadians love the style, driving dynamics, and powerful yet intuitive connectivity technologies of the NX series – making it one of our best-selling vehicles in the country,” said Martin Gilbert, Director of Lexus Canada. “We’re proud of this made-in-Canada model, as Lexus remains the only luxury automaker that is assembling vehicles on Canadian soil. The 2026 NX offers a broad range of models and powertrains – including two electrified models that deliver incredible performance, plus remarkable fuel efficiency.”

The NX Series blends clean lines with dynamic shapes and sharp edges to create a form that is nimble, athletic, muscular, and commanding. The signature Lexus spindle grille makes a bold first impression, while the rear blade lamp leaves a lasting impression. Select models feature style enhancers such as triple beam headlamps and grade-specific 20-inch wheels.

Inside, the NX welcomes a driver and up to four additional passengers to a warm and inviting cabin that embodies Takumi craftsmanship and Omotenashi hospitality. The interior is informed by the Lexus Tazuna concept, which enhances the direct connection between driver and vehicle. All Guests will appreciate the cabin’s spacious interior, which is upgraded in select packages with features such as multi-colour thematic interior illumination and a panoramic moonroof.

For those seeking more aggressive styling, the 2026 NX Series includes several models built around Lexus F SPORT packages. These feature unique F SPORT enhancements such as mesh grilles, 20-inch wheels, interior ornamentation, sport seats, a race-inspired steering wheel, and aluminum pedals. This year, Lexus expands its F SPORT offerings with two new grades for the NX 350h and a new package for the NX 450h+.

Every NX features Lexus Interface, incorporating a natural language virtual assistant that encourages a voice-first approach to navigation, media, communication, and other vehicle features. This North American designed, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto-compatible multimedia and connectivity system features a touchscreen display, Bluetooth connectivity, and Sirius XM Satellite compatibility. In addition, all Lexus Interface connected services may be controlled from a smart phone equipped with the Lexus App.

What the style promises, the performance delivers – with a dynamic and harmonious interplay between the powertrain, the chassis, the steering, and braking. Honed by professional racecar drivers on the Shimoyama test track in Japan, the NX series showcases a perfect example of the Lexus Driving Signature.

Because Lexus understands Canadian winters, all NX models feature all-wheel-drive powertrains. Lexus also understands that Canadian lifestyles are diverse and one size doesn’t fit all, so the NX is built around a choice of three powertrains – ensuring every Guest has an opportunity to find the perfect NX for their needs:

• The NX 350 is built around a 2.4L turbocharged four-cylinder engine with intercooling and active noise control, plus an eight-speed direct shift automatic transmission. This model delivers snappy performance – with 275 peak horsepower and up to 317 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain achieves a fuel efficiency rating of 9.5L per 100km (city/highway combined).
• For greater efficiency and reduced emissions, the NX 350h is built around a hybrid-electric powertrain featuring a 2.5L four-cylinder engine and electronic continuously variable transmission. This configuration delivers 240 system horsepower, the impressive torque of electric motors, and an equally impressive fuel efficiency rating of 6.0L per 100km (city/highway combined).
• The NX 450h+ features a plug-in hybrid electric powertrain, which combines the best of pure electric vehicle and hybrid-electric vehicle technologies. This model’s powertrain is built around a 2.5L four-cylinder engine, an electronic continuously variable transmission, and a high-capacity lithium-ion battery. It generates 304 system horsepower with a fuel efficiency rating of 6.6L per 100km (city/highway combined). Its 58km electric range means for most Canadians, daily driving can be accomplished without using a drop of gas. On longer trips, the NX 450h+ seamlessly switches to classic hybrid-electric operation – providing excellent emissions performance and fuel efficiency while eliminating the need to find a place to plug in.

As a Lexus, every NX is impressively equipped with state-of-the-art safety features, headlined by Lexus Safety System + 3.0. This portfolio of active safety technologies is complemented by additional standard safety systems such as Active Front Headrests with Whiplash Protection, a backup camera with Back Guide Monitor, the Blind Spot Monitor System with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, digital latch with safe exit assist, and eight airbags.
