What sort of competition will the NX have?

Porsche Macan in an appropriate trim

 

[toyotafan]

Thats it?

Just heard about the Mercedes GLA45 AMG, it could compete with the NX-F. And other GLA models compete with NX models.

It hasn't been released yet but the Audi Q1 should compete in this segment. For those who want luxury with a whole heck of a lot less aggressive styling than the NX.

 

[toyotafan]

Looks cute.

Not for men.

 

[mojo]

what about the range rover evoque and the Infiniti QX50? Oh and don't forget about the Acura RDX and the new Lincoln MKC...

 

[Kennedy]

Any more info on that Lincoln? Never knew Lincoln had something new and smaller in the works

 

[mister]

Lincoln MKC priced at around $34,000 US. Its been getting great reviews so far.

 

[toyotafan]

will the NX compete with the X4, Macan, and GLA?

 

[Kennedy]

anyone not liking the lower black parts?
i think it would be better being all white, especially since it's a luxury SUV.

 

[mister]

It doesn't bother me that much but I can understand what you are saying. They could also do it with a lighter colored material like the silver bit in the middle of the rear bumper. I just love how the hatch is integrated into the the rest of the body. They call it a clam shell, i believe.

The Lexus NX will be awesome but I think the MKC might be more broadly appealing.

Lexus is know for releasing crazy concepts and toning things down for production. Just look at the LF-CC concept and the Lexus RC.

Lincoln produced a concept that already looks production ready.
Lexus took the extreme route. I think their intention was to create a concept of a future car and to also use it as a design exercise.
