Prices for the facelifted 2018 Lexus NX have just
been uncovered by Cars Direct and surprisingly, prices for the most premium
model have decreased.
Those looking to get the keys to a 2018 NX 300h will
need to part with at least US$ 39,330, a decent drop from the US$ 40,715 starting
price of the 2017 model. What’s more, buyers of the 2018 car will enjoy a host
of mechanical and technological improvements over the outgoing model.
The range-topping NX 300h includes the
brand’s Safety System+ as standard and also benefits from improved suspension
components to make the bold SUV more capable than ever before.
At the vehicle’s April debut, Lexus said there were
retuned springs, stabilizer bars and bushings which allow for enhanced turn-in
response and better cornering. Ride comfort is then improved courtesy of
revised shock absorbers.
From a visual standpoint, the 2018 NX can be
differentiated from previous model years due to a series of incremental visual
changes. These tweaks include a revised spindle front grille, different
headlights and taillights, chrome-tipped exhausts and for the NX 300h, chrome
L-shaped elements on the rear bumper.
