The Lexus Tx 500h Redesigns A Controversial Feature—And Adds A Third Row | Forbes

  • 3 days ago
Lexus customers have long asked for a three-row SUV that offers substantial space and seating without compromising the innovative technology, refined performance, and luxurious amenities they expect. The first-ever 2024 Lexus TX delivers a comfortable, yet dynamic way of moving up to seven people—whether that’s to football practice or a cabin for a weekend getaway.

For those seeking even more power and performance, the Lexus TX 500H features a 2.4L turbocharged Parallel Hybrid system that provides 366 total system horsepower and 406 lb.-ft. of torque. The engine is matched to a six-speed automatic transmission, integrated Power Control Unit, and a 64-kW motor. At the rear, a 76-kW eAxle consisting of an inverter and motor provides near-instantaneous power to the rear wheels. The TX 500h combines DIRECT4 and Dynamic Rear Steering, resulting in exhilarating acceleration and superb dynamic handling.

The nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) battery is mounted beneath the second row, yielding additional storage capacity and increased power to create the ultimate three-row thrill ride.
