This is not the same feature as automatic cruise control..this is driving and looking at cell or radio and car in front slows down or stops this suv will automatically brake but u still have to apply brakes at 10mph for final braking..wonderful option for tailgaters like my wife..thanks Lexus for this feature
Critical Review
Although this is a practical and spacious vehicle, unfortunately I found the quality control to be very bad. My dashboard started rattling after just one month of owning this brand new car and less than a thousand miles on the odometer. After 6 days at the Lexus dealership they said they fixed the issue but it wasn't fixed. Now I've taken it back to the dealership and it's been 2 days and they still haven't figured out how to fix the issue despite installing their Lexus supplied insulation/ dampening kit which hasn't solved the issue. This is very unfortunate and I'm starting to regret switching from Mercedes which treated me very well for 11 years and probably would have treated me well for many more years but I needed a bigger vehicle.

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend the Lexus TX based on my experience. My 2026 Lexus TX 500h has experienced multiple mechanical and hybrid-system issues despite being purchased new. I have dealt with warning lights, a fuel-pump replacement, acceleration/hesitation problems, and a “hot” hybrid battery that caused the vehicle to hesitate and I couldn’t drive it. For a luxury vehicle at this price point, I expected much better reliability and peace of mind. This is our second Lexus and we owned 2 Toyota vehicles over the years, which makes this experience especially disappointing. I even tried to see if I could get a trade in for the gas version but Lexus corporate denied me. The vehicle doesn’t drive the way it did before the issues occurred but until something happens again I can’t claim any issues as they couldn’t replicate the same issue during testing at dealership. I’m nervous to have the vehicle give out on me on the road in Arizona but Lexus’s response was, “We have an excellent towing service if it does happen.” This didn’t console me. I wish I hadn’t traded my 2020 Highlander for this vehicle as I had no issues with the Highlander for the 6 years I owned it. Less than 3 months in with this one and I’ve had two issues.
Beautiful luxury- quiet ride and powerful engine
Dealer add one as this model is no longer available
I love this car- I previously owned two Grand Highlanders- one gas and one hybrid- and I decided to upgrade (again) from the GHH to a plug in hybrid. There are some definite similarities like the outside design but it ends there. The TX550h is a bigger more powerful engine and at the same time it’s a quieter ride. My poor GHH sounded so loud going up hills which is frequent where I live- in fact, the joke that we would say is that it sounded like the little engine that could! The TX’s interior is completely different- it doesn’t feel like a Toyota at all.
Got My TX 550h + at April 2025, the main reason that I got 550h + was really the V6, with a family of 5 and a 80 lbs dog, it is not just a 6 seats car that I need, but a powerful one. I've test drove TX 350, I was not impressed, however, 500h + gave me exactly what I needed. With added bonus, since my daily commute is approx. 19 miles. EV plug-in gives me the cheap electric that I envoy, plus the long distance drive we need to go on vacation without wait for charging station, so I believed this is the best decision that I made for 550h +, so far with EV combined, I am getting 36.1 MPG, HOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT! I am loving it, especially when the gas hit over $4.50 per gallon a few weeks back.
I have Lexus TX 350 ,2025 model Brand new purchased.passenger cabin seems very noisy as if heavy windy oot side .is it Nomal.To me seems like front panel in front of Radiator is wide open and all the wind is heating behind desk board Made complain but They say it is nomal
I’ve been driving my Lexus TX350 AWD for a while now, and honestly, I’m pretty disappointed overall. I’ll start with the positives. The car looks great inside and out, and the ride quality is smooth and comfortable. It does exactly what you’d expect from Lexus in terms of road comfort and appearance. Unfortunately, that’s where the good ends. The Mark Levinson 21-speaker audio system is a huge letdown. We paid extra for the upgrade, and it sounds shockingly bad. Flat, muddy, and lifeless. For a premium system, it’s unacceptable. It honestly feels like all 21 speakers were picked up from a discount tool store. I’ve had far better sound in much cheaper vehicles. The infotainment system is another major frustration. Everything takes way too many steps, even simple tasks. It’s not intuitive, and it constantly feels like you’re fighting the system instead of using it. Phone connectivity is especially unreliable. Sometimes it connects, sometimes it doesn’t. When it fails, the only fix is to pull over, turn the car off, open the door, and try again. That’s ridiculous for a modern luxury vehicle. For the price point and the Lexus reputation, I expected far better. If you care about technology, audio quality, and ease of use, I’d strongly suggest looking elsewhere. The TX350 AWD may look the part and ride well, but beyond that, it falls well short of what a luxury SUV should be.
This vehicle is much better than any German rival. Extremely quiet. Extremely luxurious interior. Very nice layout. Excellent ride, excellent tires. The ride is comfortable and super super quiet. Unlike German vehicles which may have more pep, with this vehicle you have the luxury of not seeing the dealership on a monthly basis for repairs. It is also not even in the same ballpark as the Grand Highlander. It is so much quieter and better built. We test drove both extensively. For the features that you get it's actually not that much more expensive than the Grand Highlander. Highly recommended
Powerful engine, quietness, good space and good turning radius
Not a big gas tank. Some people might not like the f sport seats. Can they make a removable bench seat for the second row?
We just bought the 500h in luxury and couldn't be more happier. We love the power of the engine, the quietness on the road and the composure that this vehicle has in turning. My daughter loves the third row as she tends to lay there during the trips. My wife is a happy camper with this vehicle, and so am I. At first I was interested in the gx but after considering that options we chose the TX as we are not much of an of roads people, we tend to do road trips and spend 99% of the time on roads, so this vehicle is good for that. As well unlike the gx and lx this has a good amount of space in the back which is great to add bags and what not without the need of losing the third row. Now this review has just come from the first road trip I did, from NYC to Burlington Vermont and she handled amazing. I did not feel no squeek as other mentioned but granted it's still relative new, It feels solid for me. The technology I'm okay with it and used to it since my wife has an nx and we have no problem with the head up display nor the door handle. One thing that the TX did not had was a nob to change the modes from normal to sport but I added on the head up display on the right side of the wheel buttons, all good with that. The seat are good for my family and me however they are more tight and I guess a bigger person would not feel as comfortable on the driver's side. Other than that this vehicle fits all our families need and we are happy with the purchase, and yes it's expensive but for our family it's worth it, read it again worth it!
No tailgating feature
