Powering the Lexus NX300h is the same hybrid powertrain that sits under the bonnet of the ES300h sedan. The 2.5-litre four-cylinder Atkinson Cycle engine is paired with an electric motor and the combined powertrain outputs 202bhp and 213Nm of torque. power is sent to the front wheels via a CVT automatic gearbox.

The facelifted NX300h features the latest version of the Lexus corporate 'spindle' grille which is flanked by triple projector beam headlights underneath which sit the tick mark shaped LED DRLs.
The sides feature squared-off and beefed up wheel arches inside which reside either 17 or 18-inch alloy wheels. The roof slides smoothly into the rear end which features wraparound tail lights which look extremely sharp.

Lexus is expected to pack the new NX300h with a host of safety features, while the interior will play host to a large 10.3-inch display that acts as the hub for the navigation and entertainment systems. Ambient lighting and a panoramic roof are also expected to feature in the new NX300h.

DriveSpark Thinks!
The Lexus NX300h is expected to be the Japanese carmaker's most affordable offering in India. Considering the NX300h's international rivals like the Mercedes GLA, the BMW X1 and the Audi Q3 are priced significantly lower than the Japanese hybrid SUV, only die-hard Lexus fans are expected to fork out the expected Rs 70 lakh+ price tag.
