When it comes to performance, the Lexus NX delivers a smooth ride for navigating Peachtree City and the greater Atlanta roads. With a choice of powertrains, including a hybrid option, the NX offers impressive fuel efficiency without sacrificing power. The handling of the NX is precise and composed, making it a pleasure to drive in a variety of road conditions.   

As part of the Lexus SUV lineup, the NX holds its own as a versatile and practical vehicle. With ample cargo space (22.7 cubic feet), the NX is well-suited for small families and commuters. The compact size of the NX also makes it easy to maneuver and park in tight spaces, while still offering the benefits of an SUV, such as a higher driving position and great visibility. Whether you prioritize style, comfort, or performance, the Lexus NX has something for everyone. 

What’s the difference between the Lexus NX and NX Hybrid?  

The most obvious difference between the Lexus NX and the Lexus NX Hybrid is their powertrain. The Lexus NX is equipped with a traditional gasoline engine, while the NX Hybrid features a combination of a gasoline engine and electric motor. This difference in powertrain translates to differences in fuel efficiency and overall performance. The NX Hybrid offers superior fuel economy, making it a more environmentally friendly and cost-effective option for those looking to save on gas expenses.
