As a long-time Lexus owner, I'm really happy to see that their engineers and designers have finally caught up with the rest of the upscale auto market in the use and functionality of the lighting systems.
Good to see, Lexus is finally stepping up their game in terms of great interior and exterior lighting to keep up with the competition. Great review as always. Thanks man
Thank you for this review. I think you’re the only auto journalist that does nighttime lighting reviews and it’s much appreciated. It’s the second most important feature to me when buying a vehicle.
I had very high expectations for the NX’s lights. Those expectations have been met. The only exception is the adaptive headlight feature. There is no side to side rotation… but they illuminate such a wide path that it might not be missed. I am not sure I understand the auto leveling feature. Is that only when towing? Because when going over small hills in the road, the light did not seem to stay at the horizon line. The new NX looks like a good choice for me if I can afford it. Thanks. Keep up the good work.
I know that's crazy to me that there is no side to side AFS system. My wife's 18' NX has active curve AFS triple beam head lights so as you turn the steering wheel the headlights turn left and right. It really is nice. I'm really surprized they took this feature OUT of the new NX after all the upgrade they've done to it. Really is kinda ming boggling why they would do that when other Lexus models still have and use active curve.
my 2014 prius has auto leveling headlights but then only adjust the up and down beam when weight is added to the back seats or trunk. To test this I started the car, headlights on and pointed at the garage door and then I had 2 family members sit on the trunk. When turned the headlights off then back on the beam lowered. This auto leveling system appears to be used just to reduce glare and improve visibility with added cargo and passengers.
Does it have lights in the door, which shine on the street, when you open the door? Like those lights some cars have with a manufacturer’s logo? I really like the car. Only downside is still the not fully digital dashboard screen. All cars of this price range should have a full digital dashboard, I think. The new Toyota’s do.
I am glad you did the 2022 nx night time drive. It gave me a great view of what it looks like. I may get the BI Led light and wonder if it performs as as well as the triple LED here
I like the ambient lighting in LEXUS LS 500H than from other models of LEXUS.....It is so close to the Japanese Culture and Takumi Craftmanship......That Warm illumination is a feel good factor.....✨️✨️❤️❤️This is also good.......❤️❤️
I was going to lease a 2022 LS500AWD but after seeing the new technology in the NX , I'll wait for the next generation LS. I'm sure it'll like this times 10. Good to have something to look forward to in 2023.
Great video! btw does it have the blindspot detection thing? like if a car comes beside you and you accidentally want to switch lanes, are there any alerts or signals?
I had an IS350 with the headlights that would swivel when I turned the car. The normal beam is much wider on this NX, I don't see the need to have the headlights swivel. Lexus probably felt the same way.
Great vid! I appreciate you showcasing all the details @night. Can you adjust the brightness of the touchscreen independently of the rest of the illuminated controls? I currently have ‘20 NX and it’s a complete snore compared to this “mostly all new” model.
Did the ambient light dim when you put it into drive? If so are you able to change that in the settings so that the ambient light stays bright? Lexus ambient lights on other cars always dim in drive. Gets so dim you can’t even see it. I hope this car isn’t the same
Hy. Interesting Test, but What about de Adaptative Function? I expected You to Show how develops the New Design and feature Lexus With Leds lights in this Nx. It seems like are Disconnected or Dissabled during yout test. Only changing Low Beams to High Beams... aren't them Matrix or Adaptative in that Nx versión? Thanks vert Much.
@@PrimeAutotainment if it’s a limited or platinum trim you should compare it to the Lexus RX L, because the sienna in high end trims offer more luxury features than the RX L does
I bought NX 450 + Prestige TOP line , or exactly I ordered, cos here in Czech republic from Japan is taken 8 month´s at least, 71 700 Euro, I think that in USA in cheaper, good job , nice video
Why does lexus lack in interior ambient lighting? I love lexus but come on, just a dim strip of light in the door? A little bit disappointing. The exterior is gorgeous though.
Tanya can you change the screen to a darker screen with light letters in the day time? I see Nolan can do this at night. Or does it change automatically?
probs a stupid question but whats the light for (refering to 9:26) when you turn the blinker on? the 21 nx has it too not sure what its useful for though?
A huge ......huge Lexus ES 300h fan from India...... my dream car..... I don't know when I am drive my dream car, Only my wish once I need to be drive my dream, I have no money to buy my dream car....... Lexus ES 300 h 💕💕💕💕💕💘💘
You need to cover the Lincoln Corsair & Nautilus’ ambient lighting bc they have great interior ambient lighting as well. Same thing with the the now discontinued Continental, the 2017 onwards MKZ, & even the 2016-2018 MKX (before it got its first refresh & got renamed to Nautilus)
This new NX is really good, but don’t know what Lexus’s been doing, took them so long to deliver, so far no one has received the car, so sad about this.
Just took delivery of a LX600 luxury trim. The ambient lights are a joke. Brightness is OK if you want to sit in your car in park and stare at them. Shift it to drive and the ambient lights basically disappear completely. I even have them set to max brightness. Anyone looking at Lexus ambient lighting, make sure to lower your expectations….
it looks good but i cannot understand why Lexus dont go with the whole new design. this simply looks Mazda CX series SUV's from most angles. They should look at what BMW and Merc have done to thier X and GL series. Lexus need to make more stylish and beefy SUV in the compact segment.
Traded 2018 f3 for 2021 Tesla m3. While fit and finish is excellent, Lexus IS in big trouble. ICE and all hybrid configurations are soon to be obsolete.

What do you think of the LED headlights and new ambient lights?!
Here's the full review: ruclips.net/video/-uUwo22F4HY/видео.html
As a long-time Lexus owner, I'm really happy to see that their engineers and designers have finally caught up with the rest of the upscale auto market in the use and functionality of the lighting systems.
I wouldn't look at Lexus because I live ambient lighting...I may have to rethink that. Has yours been as reliable as advertised?
Good to see, Lexus is finally stepping up their game in terms of great interior and exterior lighting to keep up with the competition. Great review as always. Thanks man
Thank you for this review. I think you’re the only auto journalist that does nighttime lighting reviews and it’s much appreciated. It’s the second most important feature to me when buying a vehicle.
I love how they gave it a significant power upgrade, new transmission, ambient lighting ! And a new display I’m so in love
Was waiting for a night review of the 2022 NX. Thank you! This car is just amazing, can't wait to get my hands on one.
I’m excited. I’m supposed to get mine in 20 days.
@@rahulshah1408 I'm jelly. Still waiting on our dealership to get stock in
same 😂..just to see the contrast of the new interior lightings and sexy sharp rear taillight.
@@matthewchau2481 same here. I put a deposit on an allotment. Been delayed 1 month so far. Good luck to you sir.
@@AkiffHssn thank you. Fingers crossed it’s worth the wait.
I love that you did this. It's almost impossible to find footage of night lighting of the exterior/interior of cars anywhere on RUclips. Thank you!!
Love night time reviews great job as always Nolan Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Thank you Miguel and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too my friend 😁👍
Night views always blow me away with Toyota/Lexus products. Lexus really did their homework with this vehicle especially! Great job!
My 2018 Highlander has a lot of blue lights and I really like that. Wish this NX had similar blues
Love the new direction for Lexus designs
Very smooth ride. Can’t go wrong with this one. Thank you Nolan
Absolutely amazing SUV. Test drove one and put my order in immediately.
Test drive really gets you with this vehicle - took my Mom and it was a winner in less than 10 minutes. Just wish they made an NX with a V6.
Thank you for the video! I'm looking at getting this vehicle in the next few months and it was really good to watch.
What a great video to do. So interesting to see what you get from the vehicle at night. Brilliant. Just can't wait to test drive an NX 450h+.
First time seeing a night review and had to subscribe. I love this type of review
Taking delivery of my F sport this coming Wednesday, couldn't be more excited!!!
Love it! Buying mine in 4-6 months!
hope you've already pre-ordered
Did you get it?

What an interesting approach to car reviews. Lighting does play a larger part in design of course.
Great review, I love that you show us how well the headlights work in different conditions.
Agreed. The interior was much needed and better. Nice thorough review!
Wish it had ambient lights on dash board
Thank you for the night review!! I was wondering if I’d see one before I bought mine. It just reinforces my decision.
🎉Happy New Year🎉

A video I was waiting for thank you so much
Lexus with a modern interior 😮!
Not really. The nx interior is improved but it’s not class leading. If anything it looks more like a Camry inside
Those headlights make the nighttime like a daytime.
You did great !! Thanks 😍
I like this Video ! Greetings from Germany;-)
Thanks! Mine is getting cleaned up now! 350 lux in Redline 😍
nice review... How is your current Gas Mileage? city highway average?
Great review thanks. Does the NX come with ‘puddle lights’ for the front passengers?
Great video! btw does it have the blindspot detection thing? like if a car comes beside you and you accidentally want to switch lanes, are there any alerts or signals?
Yes it has BSM

I hope not
Lexus and Toyota Avalon got one of the best headlights
this video is really bright
Do you know if the 2024 nx 250 have ambient lights
Would be nice to see the navigation in action at nighy
Great review! Thank you. Do you know if the puddle lamps project “Lexus”?

Does the ambient lights dim in drive. That would suck
Can we get this with luxury package?I mean the ambient lighting?
How do i turn on the exterior door lights? Only my driver ones are on right now not the rear.
How to switch on the amber marking light please , the dealer in Australia could not turn it on and tells me it is just a reflector
Do all packages of lexus come with the colored lights inside?
When do you plan on doing the video on the new Toyota sienna limited ADW can you please do it soon as possible thanks
It’s supposed to be here 2nd week of January I believe, so not long after that! I’ll try to have 2-3 videos on it 👍
Thanks so much I really enjoy your videos a lot
@@PrimeAutotainment if it’s a limited or platinum trim you should compare it to the Lexus RX L, because the sienna in high end trims offer more luxury features than the RX L does
What trim of NX is this??
Nolan did you notice if the NX handle areas light up at night when you approach? Were there any puddle lights.
I bought NX 450 + Prestige TOP line , or exactly I ordered, cos here in Czech republic from Japan is taken 8 month´s at least, 71 700 Euro, I think that in USA in cheaper, good job , nice video
The best brand
you mentioned wireless apple car play but dealer sales person said its wired ?,
👌🏻I wish if you could try LTA in the nighttime
I have nx350 2022 but nut full option ,, the themes and color options is not in my car !!!
I WANT THIS CAR
A lot of niceties!!😀
Is this in a package or standard?
Does all the 4 door handles have illumination?
Not today!! Tonight 😂
Good catch lol
Excellent
Does anyone know which trims have the thematic ambient lighting?
My dream car
Did the head up display show gas mileage info?
Why does lexus lack in interior ambient lighting? I love lexus but come on, just a dim strip of light in the door? A little bit disappointing. The exterior is gorgeous though.
Does anyone know what is displayed in the HUD. Driving directions ??
Any voice activated functions ?
Can you do the Lincoln Corsair next?
Would be great if you reviewed the Lexus nx Bi Led lights
Do you think the 14 inch screen is too bright?
Drove mine tonight. It’s not too bright. Can be dimmed or turned off if you’re particularly sensitive
Tanya can you change the screen to a darker screen with light letters in the day time? I see Nolan can do this at night. Or does it change automatically?
probs a stupid question but whats the light for (refering to 9:26) when you turn the blinker on? the 21 nx has it too not sure what its useful for though?
When you turn you need to see better if the road bends
Man when is Lexus going to implement bladescan headlights
Is the 2nd gen NX still considered a Girl's Car? Is there still a mirror in the center console?
I sat in the new version in the Dealer showroom and the mirror in console is gone now.
Thanks
A huge ......huge Lexus ES 300h fan from India......

Lexus ES 300 h 💕💕💕💕💕💘💘
i wish my 2022 is350 had ambient lighting :(
Why Lexus won’t do this to the GX is BEYOND me 😢
Wow that transmission is very slow to respond
I buy One!
Audi look?
Somebody can tell me which one is bigger inside between NX or UX. ?
Nx all day long.
You need to cover the Lincoln Corsair & Nautilus’ ambient lighting bc they have great interior ambient lighting as well. Same thing with the the now discontinued Continental, the 2017 onwards MKZ, & even the 2016-2018 MKX (before it got its first refresh & got renamed to Nautilus)
why should we pay for navigation in 2022?
Caviar - sparkly black,
This new NX is really good, but don’t know what Lexus’s been doing, took them so long to deliver, so far no one has received the car, so sad about this.
Why in argentina we have to pay 100k ....
Just took delivery of a LX600 luxury trim. The ambient lights are a joke. Brightness is OK if you want to sit in your car in park and stare at them.
Shift it to drive and the ambient lights basically disappear completely.
I even have them set to max brightness.
Anyone looking at Lexus ambient lighting, make sure to lower your expectations….
it looks good but i cannot understand why Lexus dont go with the whole new design. this simply looks Mazda CX series SUV's from most angles.
They should look at what BMW and Merc have done to thier X and GL series. Lexus need to make more stylish and beefy SUV in the compact segment.
Why do they have to put plastic around the wheels on a $55k car?
Traded 2018 f3 for 2021 Tesla m3. While fit and finish is excellent, Lexus IS in big trouble. ICE and all hybrid configurations are soon to be obsolete.
Soon. What’s f3?
@@cosettapessa6417 NX 350 F-Sport. F3 was top of the line.
Ok
How does anyone even get one of these vehicles?
What do you mean by that?
@@muhammadali-wq8jw I cannot locate any 2022 NXs for sale. Not even at the dealer in this video
In my opinion the ambient light it’s a little too low.
This is a bit expensive at 54k.
The only guy to do a nighttime drive switch off the satnav and not give a single film of dashboard complete rubbish
It’s nice but not 54k nice Lexus is just marking up all their whole lineup for 22.
👍 ...
Hot car 😘😍😍😍😍😍
