What's New for the 2026 Lexus NX 350 AWD?
The 2026 Lexus NX 350 offers refined performance, elevated luxury, and updated styling to drivers in Westmont, Downers Grove, Oak Brook, and the surrounding Chicago suburbs. As the smallest SUV in the Lexus lineup, the NX remains a top choice for shoppers seeking premium craftsmanship in a compact footprint. For 2026, Lexus has discontinued the NX 250, making the NX 350 the new entry trim and strengthening its standard features across the board.
The 2026 NX 350 welcomes two new paint colors—Infrared and Ultra White. Its exterior design carries over from the previous model year and continues to showcase the sporty, sculpted Lexus look. A sharply tapered front end, dramatic roofline, and bold character lines give the NX a modern, athletic presence on Westmont roads. At the front, the signature A-frame grille extends from top to bottom, featuring a chrome accent beneath the bumper. The triangular LED headlights feature three LED projectors and a sleek upper light bar, adding to the SUV's refined appearance.
How Does the 2026 Lexus NX 350 Perform?
A major update for 2026 is the addition of standard all-wheel drive across every NX trim, a valuable advantage for winter driving throughout Chicagoland. The NX 350 is powered by a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine producing 203 horsepower. This engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission for smooth acceleration and strong efficiency. Drivers can also upgrade to an adaptive sport suspension system through available packages, which provides the NX with sharper handling and a more engaging drive.
