The Lexus TX is a full-size luxury crossover SUV with three-row seating produced by Japanese brand Lexus, a luxury division of Toyota. Produced since September 2023, it is exclusively marketed in North America. The TX is constructed upon the front- and all-wheel drive TNGA-K platform, shared with its Toyota Grand Highlander sibling and the mid-size XU70 Highlander/Kluger. The TX was revealed simultaneously with the J250 GX on June 8, 2023.[9] Replacing the RX L, it takes the position of being the brand's only three-row crossover SUV.
The TX was revealed on June 8, 2023 as part of Toyota's GA-K platform dedicated to mid-size and full-size vehicles with either a front- or all-wheel drive layout configuration. The new platform offers a low center of gravity and optimal weight distribution. To improve performance, enhancements were made to strengthen the TX's body rigidity and minimize noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH).[10] Welds and adhesives are featured to increase the vehicle’s joint strength and rigidity through the main framework components of the chassis. The TX introduces a front MacPherson strut suspension and a rear multi-link suspension, as well as widened front and rear tracks.[10]
The TX is available in six- and seven-seat configurations. The second row has either a 60:40 split-folding bench or captain's chairs, while the third row has a 50:50 split bench.[11] Depending on the trim level and powertrain choice, the outboard second row seats can include heating and ventilation.
Each model is sold in three trim levels: Base, Premium, and Luxury.[12]
