Lexus ups pricing for the popular NX mid-size family SUV, its sibling to the Toyota RAV4

The Lexus NX is now more expensive, but other Lexus models have copped larger price hikes.

Lexus has raised pricing on its popular NX mid-size SUV by up to $2600 depending on the variant, while other lower-volume models in the brand’s line-up have been more affected by pricing changes.

The NX, with its entry front-wheel-drive NX250 variant, now starts at $61,900, an increase of $1100 over last year.

Lexus Australia confirmed with CarsGuide there are no specification changes, which means this variant is still powered by a 2.4-litre four-cylinder petrol engine making 152kW and 243Nm.

The other purely petrol variant, the turbocharged 350, now costs  $78,191.

The NX’s range tops out at the highest of its seven hybrid grades, the plug-in hybrid NX450h+ AWD F Sport at $90,923, which is now $2600 more expensive, as with all the other hybrid variants.

The NX450+ is powered by a 2.5-litre hybrid four-cylinder engine which makes a potent 227kW.

Also copping price increases are the Lexus LC sports tourer and the large LX SUV.

The LC500 is up by $8000 in its standard V8 guise, now a $201,461 offering, while the hybrid LC500h is up by $2000 and now starts at $194,348 before on-roads.

The LC500 convertible has also increased by $2000, and is now $215,068.

For about the same money, a twin-turbo V6 top-spec LX600 Ultra Luxury now costs from $215,091, which is $5100 more than last year as with all LX SUVs.

That means the entry to the LX range now starts from $153,091.
