1. The Ultimate Power: Three Distinct Powertrains

The 2026 TX line offers an engine for every preference, all capable of towing up to 5,000 pounds.

    • TX 350 (Gas): The powerful and efficient starting point, featuring a 2.4L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing 275 horsepower and robust torque for daily driving in the Phoenix metro area. Available in FWD or AWD.

    • TX 500h F SPORT Performance (Hybrid): For drivers demanding sportiness, this turbo hybrid delivers 366 net combined horsepower and comes exclusively with DIRECT4 All-Wheel Drive.

    • TX 550h+ Luxury (Plug-in Hybrid - PHEV): The flagship model, producing 404 net combined horsepower from a V6 plug-in hybrid system. It offers an estimated 33 miles of all-electric range, perfect for silent, efficient commuting around Scottsdale.

    2. Unprecedented Cargo Area and Third-Row Space

    The "T" in TX stands for "Touring," and its cavernous space lives up to the name. This Lexus SUV is one of the roomiest three-row vehicles in its class.

    • Usable Cargo Area: With all three rows up, the TX provides an impressive 20.2 cubic feet of cargo space. That’s enough for multiple full-size suitcases or golf bags, a feature often lacking in competitors.

    • Maximum Space: When the second and third rows are folded flat (the third row is power-folding on Premium and Luxury trims), the TX opens up to a massive 97 cubic feet of maximum storage.

    • True Third-Row Comfort: Third-row passengers benefit from a comfortable seating position, ample headroom, and enhanced utility thanks to standard modular cupholders and multiple USB ports.

    3. Interior Sanctuary: Acoustic Refinement

    Few vehicles can offer the serene cabin experience found in the Lexus TX. The design prioritizes passenger tranquility.

    • Whisper Quiet: Built on the refined Global Architecture-K (GA-K) platform, the TX uses sophisticated sound-dampening materials and acoustic glass to minimize road and wind noise, turning the cabin into a sanctuary away from the hustle of city life.

    • Luxury Appointments: Higher trims, such as the TX 350 Luxury and TX 550h+, feature exquisite Semi-Aniline Leather seating and Thematic Ambient Illumination to tailor the mood of your drive.

    4. Trims Tailored to Every Lifestyle

    The TX offers a broad range of trims, ensuring there is a perfect match for your needs:

    • TX 350/Premium: Excellent blend of luxury and value with standard 14-inch display, heated front seats, and available Panorama Glass Roof.

    • TX 350 Luxury: Adds premium features like Semi-Aniline Leather, heated second-row seats, and sophisticated Bi-LED headlamps.

    • TX 500h F SPORT Performance: Features a sport-tuned chassis with Adaptive Variable Suspension and Dynamic Rear Steering for enhanced handling and cornering agility.
