Driving The NX

Driving The NX

Author: Tomas Yoko
Date: 2015-05-08
From the word go I knew I was going to love the new Lexus NX. I collected my test car from Cathy Gilmour at McCarthy Lexus Kingsmead and was immediately impressed with the interior layout.

Driving the NX was sublime; the sport mode changed that into electrifying in an instant. The edgy angular design of the NX's body shape was characterised in the punchy attentive response of the throttle and suspension.

Heading into the bright sun, North on the M4 and I felt assured, relaxed, superior, as I gazed out over a bristling blue Indian ocean. The ride this Lexus NX produced was so smooth and luxurious I felt like I was in a five star luxury lounge.

The twist of a dial and the NX was in sport mode, no time for gazing out to sea now as the rumble from the exhaust discreetly announced my take off. The steering wheel response was very positive and produced the sensation of total control.

Automatic air-conditioning and a large info screen operated by a touch pad brought the extreme elements of technological advancement from Lexus into the driving experience.

I can recommend you test drive the Lexus NX, call McCarthy Lexus Kingsmead on 031 335 1650 or visit their showroom on the corner of NMR Avenue and Somtseu Road, and feel the luxury, design and technological masterpiece that is Lexus.
