Mercedes to Lexus

[Headhurts]

Having been a Mercedes driver since 2014 I have just ordered an NX450h+ Takumi in Terrane Khaki with Hazel interior. I reasoned that the hybrid technology by Lexus along with their customer service would be superior to the Mercedes version also the interior of the NX is amazing. I have at the moment a Mercedes GLC300 48V mild hybrid that does drive nicely and has been very reliable so let’s hope I have made the right decision.

I have to say the NX does drive nicely and I decided on the Takumi rather than F-Sport as I wanted the Mark Levinson system although I have to say a good friend of mine has the F-Sport and the standard system in that is superb, plus I prefer the less huggy seats in the standard Takumi.

Delivery for my car is around January 2025 but could be sooner.

I’m retired so the majority of my driving should be by electric power only even in winter.

The part ex offered by Lexus was pants but I have the option to sell privately prior to parting of monies.

Hello Robin and welcome to the LOC, hoping you find the forum informative and educational. Personally I think you have made a good choice👍

Welcome Robin,

you’ve chosen a lovely colour combination. I recently traded in my UX 250h Terrane Khaki and Hazel interior. Was tempted to go for the same when I ordered my new NX but the Sonic Titanium was in stock and readily available so went for that instead.

Hi Robin,

I have the exact same car, spec, colour, and interior on order. Placed order early August and expected late November. Hopefully it doesn't move around too much.

Welcome Robin, a lovely car and spec there.

We've had our NX350h (in the same green) only a week and been impressed.
