NX VS RX: PASSENGER & CARGO ROOM
The biggest difference between these vehicles is that the NX is a compact SUV, while the RX is a midsize SUV. However, despite the differences in size, they have more than enough stretching room for five people.
In the 2019 LEXUS NX, you get 42.8 inches of front legroom and 36.1 inches of rear legroom. Then in the 2019 Lexus RX, you have 44.1 inches of front legroom and 38 inches of rear legroom. With all this space in each row, even taller passengers will feel comfortable on longer drives.These SUVs offer lots of cargo space, too. In the NX, you get 54.6 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded down. The RX, meanwhile, gives you 56.3 cubic feet behind the first row.
Both vehicles offer a hands-free liftgate. To use the Power Rear Door with Kick Sensor, just swipe your foot under the rear bumper. The liftgate will then automatically open, for quick and easy access.
LEXUS NX VS LEXUS RX: CABIN AMENITIES
While the 2019 NX and 2019 LEXUS RX vary in size, they both offer lots of amenities to help keep everyone on board happy.
These include heated and ventilated front seats, along with a heated steering wheel. When these optional features are in place, you can quickly warm up or cool down with just the touch of a button.
You also get dual-zone automatic climate control standard in each model. If you need to warm up, while your co-pilot wants to cool down, you can both adjust the cabin temperature. That way, no one needs to be too hot or too cold throughout any ride.
Furthermore, both the NX and RX come standard with a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat and 8-way power-adjustable passenger’s seat. Plus, the RX comes standard with a power tilt-and-telescopic steering column, while the NX offers it in a Premium Package. With these features in place, you can easily get into that perfect seating position up front.TECHNOLOGIES IN THE NX VS RX
The Lexus NX and Lexus RX also have tons of technologies that can help keep you entertained and safe. For instance, they both come standard with:
• Bluetooth® technology
• HD Radio™
• Siri® Eyes Free
The NX also comes standard with Apple CarPlay® and a Lexus Enform App Suite 2.0. With the latter, you can download various apps onto your phone. Then, connect it to the vehicle’s USB port to listen to live radio, check sports scores, and more, without messing with your mobile device while driving.

The RX offers the Lexus Enform App Suite, but not the 2.0 version. Additionally, it unfortunately doesn’t offer Apple CarPlay®.
However, both models come standard with a Lexus Safety System+.
