I received a free week in this vehicle in exchange for my honest opinion. Read my Disclosure Policy.
So I spent the last week driving around in the luxurious 2016 Lexus NX 200t F-Sport SUV.
Pros:
//The AWD of this SUV was amazing. It was great on the rainy days I had to travel on the highway or around town. I didn't feel nervous once that I was going to spin out, slip, or be affected by the road conditions. I love a vehicle that can keep it's cool along with me.
//The NX 200t handled around corners and sharp turns exceptionally well. Surprisingly, the contents of my purse didn't spill out like I'm used to.
//The best way to describe the exterior of this SUV is sexy and fierce. I love the trim both inside and out but the headlights and the overall exterior design has such a badass look. And while it's an SUV it doesn't have a bulky appearance.
//I love that you can select the driving mode - there's Normal, ECO (fuel efficient) and Sport. I really love ECO mode because it truly had great gas mileage.
//The 2016 Lexus NC 200t F-Sport has amazing lighting on the inside and out. Tap to turn on the interior lights if you're rooting around for something and don't worry about driving at night - the LED headlights are fantastic. And for someone who squints all the time because driving at night means bright lights in my side and rear view mirrors - this vehicle was a miracle! Gotta love that sunlight reflection feature!
//The center console sits high up and I love it as not only an arm rest if I'm waiting in the car, but also it has amazing storage space.
//I have to say that the seats of this vehicle are the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in when it comes to driving. Even after a 2 hour drive I wasn't sore or stiff.
//I can't believe how much cargo space this SUV has. I love it!
//The temperature control and heating system is a true blessing and I didn't have to wait 20 minutes till I could comfortably drive to work in the morning.
//This vehicle has a great sound system with an eight-channel amplifier and 8 speakers! I also am in love with the Qi wireless charging tray inside the console box.
//The 200t has some great safety features like a roof impact system in case the roof is impacted, Whiplash-Injury Lessening front seats, and 8 SRS airbags. There's even a Pre-Collision System. Talk about peace of mind.
Cons:
//The amount of knobs and buttons on the front dash was a bit overwhelming for me. I tend to like more of a minimalist dashboard but I'm sure after a month in this vehicle, one would be used to where everything is and what it all does.
//It may be because I'm used to having large open windows in my current card but I thought the windows were a bit small, especially the windshield and at times I felt "cramped" in a way.
//Obviously this is an SUV so it will be larger than most cars meant to fit into a parking spot. Still, I found it relatively easy to pull in and out of a parking spot and while it was especially tricky to parallel park in the city, the backup camera helped!
Overall, this is a great vehicle for anyone that wants a comfortable ride, great technology, and PLENTY of cargo space!!! This is like the queen of SUVs to me!

Love the color of that car. Also, the fact that it has 8 speakers sounds perfect, I love listening to music in the car!

DeleteI could see that the windows were smaller than usual... that would be a feature that I wouldn't like, but lots to like for sure with all the other features, and all the gadgets, oh my! It would be a lot to get used to. :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your review, and also appreciated your visit to my blog! :)
Yea thats what I wanted to do with this review is just be honest because I know some of the features some would like that I didn't like and vice versa. Its a great vehicle especially for someone who loves all the bells and whistles! Lol!
DeleteIt's beautiful, and the Lexus quality is always great..... not big enough to haul my two big dogs to their vet visits, but looks like a fun drive vehicle. xo
ReplyDeleteIt was definitely fun for the time i had it!
