The Lexus TX continues to provide a perfect blend of comfort and performance, accommodating up to seven passengers while maintaining the innovative technology, refined performance, and luxurious amenities customers expect. For the 2025 model year, the TX lineup introduces subtle updates, further enhancing its strong foundation of style, utility, and comfort.

The Lexus TX continues to deliver a perfect balance of comfort, innovation, and performance, offering seating for up to seven without compromising on advanced technology, refined driving dynamics, or luxurious amenities. For the 2025 model year, the TX lineup introduces subtle updates, further solidifying its reputation for style, utility, and comfort.

New for 2025 is the F SPORT Handling grade, available exclusively on the TX 350 AWD. This trim features Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS), Intuitive Parking Assist with Automatic Braking, a Panorama Glass Roof, power-folding third-row seats, and ventilated front seats as standard. The exterior boasts a distinctive front fascia, rear valance, black roof rails, dark chrome window trim, black side mirrors, and exclusive 22-inch Matte Black wheels.

Inside, F SPORT-specific details include a heated leather-trimmed steering wheel, aluminum pedals, scuff plates, and second-row captain’s chairs, adding a sporty and premium touch to the cabin experience.

With the addition of F SPORT Handling, the TX is now offered in seven grades: Standard, Premium, Luxury, F SPORT Handling, F SPORT Performance Premium, and F SPORT Performance Luxury. For a full breakdown of the standard and available features by grade, please see the TX Specifications.

Like the RX and NX, the 2025 TX rides on the GA-K platform, which offers optimal weight distribution and facilitates the SUV’s dynamic and agile driving performance. The platform reduces noise vibration and contributes to a smooth and serene ride with exceptional comfort. It also enables precise suspension movement, straight-line stability, and steering responsiveness so that the car and driver act in harmony – this is what the brand calls the LDS.

LDS has served as the guiding philosophy behind the development of Lexus vehicles. It blends both luxury and performance to deliver an exceptional and engaging driving experience. On the TX, LDS is expressed through predictable, linear responses according to the driver’s intentions.

To achieve the desired ride comfort and quietness, focus was placed on strengthening the TX’s body rigidity while minimizing increases in weight. Body adhesives have been placed in optimal locations to help ensure the vehicle remains composed and nimble while turning into a corner or driving on rough pavement. Other enhancements include short pitch spot welding, the introduction of a rear multi-link suspension design, and widened front and rear tracks.

To lighten the TX’s body, the outer panel thickness has been fine-tuned on the side members, front door assembly, and rear door assembly. The hood and front fender material is aluminum, while the back door is steel, resulting in an optimized front-rear weight distribution.

To help meet the diverse needs of Lexus customers and cater to any lifestyle, the 2025 TX will be offered in three powertrain options: a 2.4L turbocharged inline 4-cylinder on the TX350, a 2.4L turbocharged hybrid on the TX500h, and a 3.5L V6 plug-in hybrid on the TX550h+. Whether someone is looking for thrilling performance or plug-in efficiency, all three powertrains can tow up to 5,000 pounds for the adventure ahead.

The TX 500h and TX 550h+ further the brand’s progress toward reducing carbon emissions and its vision of a carbon-neutral society. Lexus now provides 10 electrified vehicles across its lineup for guests to choose from, including eight hybrid models, three plug-in hybrid models, and one battery electric vehicle.
