Lexus LS Reviews

Lexus has bumped up pricing for three of its four best selling models, consisting of the ES sedan, UX small SUV and NX mid-size SUV.The pricing increases are relatively minor, and arrive at the middle of the year at which point the government’s LCT adjustments bring the pricing of some of Lexus’ more expensive models down.In terms of the most affected in terms of pricing shift, the Lexus ES sedan has copped a $520 price increase at its ES250 Luxury entry variant, now $62,140 before on-road costs, as well as its 250 F Sport grade.The hybrid 300h variants are all up by a $1990 increase, though, the most of any of the variants in this round of price adjustments.The entry to Lexus’ UX small SUV remains unchanged, still $46,085, but all the hybrid 250h models have been bumped up by $500, making the hybrid entry-point UX250h Luxury 2WD a $54,320 offering.The UX300e Luxury electric car remains unchanged in its pricing, but LCT adjustments mean efficient (i.e. hybrid) and electric vehicles above the threshold are now cheaper, so the 300e Sports Luxury is now $825 cheaper at $87,665.Even non-hybrid cars above the LCT threshold have been treated to a (smaller) price drop, so a lot of Lexus range - like the full RX large SUV line-up - is now a little more affordable.Finally, the NX mid-size SUV, which shares much of its underpinnings with the Toyota RAV4 and is by some margin Lexus’ most popular model (3425 of the brand’s 8300 sales this year), has been given a relatively gently price adjustment.The entry-level NX250 2WD is $375 more expensive, now $62,275, while every other variant bar a couple is up by $850.The other two both have benefited from price drops thanks to LCT changes, the NX350 AWD F Sport at $77,511 (down $680) and the top-spec (but hard to buy without a wait) NX450h+ AWD F Sport Plug-in hybrid at $90,948 ($475 less).Full pricing tables with changes noted can be found below.2023 Lexus ES pricing before on-road costs  2023 Lexus UX pricing before on-road costs  2023 Lexus NX pricing before on-road costs  

They say people movers are the new SUVs, well …they don’t at all, but the Lexus LM has just arrived in the UK ahead of its Australian launch and its dripping with so much poshness you might just be tempted out of a Mercedes GLS or BMW X7, but it won’t be cheap.

Q: What are the most reliable car brands you can buy in Australia? A: It’s a heck of a question – but a popular barbecue discussion point - and there’s no definitive answer, mainly because there are so many variables (not to mention the sheer number of available car makes and models).

Lexus Australia has confirmed the Toyota Prado-related GX off-road SUV for local consumption from the first half of next year, but it will go against the luxury brand's hybrid philosophy – at least initially.

The new RX has been revamped, restyled and retooled, so how does it compete in the luxury large SUV market?

It's taken nearly five years but Lexus has finally got the UX250h luxury small SUV right. Benefitting from an overhaul in 2022, the latest model is now stronger and quieter, thanks to several chassis, suspension and body improvements. It's also better equipped, gains a upgraded and larger multimedia screen, and steers and rides more comfortably than before. Most of the old UX flaws are gone.

In a busy week for Lexus, the brand has revealed a three-row SUV in North America almost alongside the Toyota Prado-based (and much anticipated) Lexus GX. It’s the much more US-focused Lexus TX, and it’s basically a bigger version of the Kluger-cousin RX.

The third Generation of the three-row Lexus GX has finally been revealed in North America, with the model expected to finally make its way to Australia after it goes on sale globally late this year.

Surprising no one, Lexus has confirmed the upcoming GX SUV will be a capable off-roader in its final teaser before the model’s reveal later this week.

Increasing supply and continued strong demand have combined to create a market environment in which Lexus’ NX mid-size SUV is overtaking its European rivals after a record month for the brand.
