Hi.
I’ve been on this site for years when I owned an RX400h and had to reregister for some reason. However to the point.
I’ve recently bought a 2015 NX Luxury. A brief test drive was all I had before purchase and following a few hundred miles my initial impressions are:
Internal sound suppression is excellent. I didn’t notice how good until I stepped straight from mine into a friends car which I thought was quiet to start with.
CVT is an improvement on the RX400. More noticeable going up hills than during acceleration but not too bad 95% of the time.
Build quality and comfort excellent.
Gear lever is horrible. Like something from the 80’s. Very mechanical and notchy. Nowhere near as good as VAG cars.
Suspension is too firm for my tastes, especially around town. Tyres aren’t the problem it’s just too crashy. Gets better on the open road, just. My previous three cars were a Ford Kuga 2015, Vauxhall Zafira Tourer 2016 and a Golf SV 2016. All had far superior suspension in any situation.
Overall a very nice car but because of the suspension I’ll probably only keep it for a year while it’s covered by the dealer warranty then change.
