Lexus NX Vs Audi Q5 FAQs

The Lexus NX is priced between ₹68 lakh and ₹75 lakh (ex-showroom India). It’s not pocket change, but for those wanting a luxury SUV that’s a bit different from the usual German herd, it’s a very strong contender.

The second-generation NX made its India debut in March 2022, bringing updated design, tech, and Lexus’s hybrid system. Since then, it’s become one of their top sellers here because it balances size, luxury, and running efficiency.

The India-spec NX 350h is powered by a 2.5-litre petrol engine paired with two electric motors delivering a combined 244 hp. Power is sent through an e-CVT automatic and you get an AWD system as standard. It’s quick enough for Indian roads, doing 0–100 km/h in 7.7 seconds, while staying whisper-quiet most of the time.

The NX claims 17.8 kmpl in real-world conditions. At a fuel price of ₹102 per litre, you’re looking at around ₹5.7 per km. For a luxury AWD SUV, that’s excellent. Compare that to a petrol-only rival like the BMW X3, which costs nearly double per km to run.

The NX is 4660 mm long, 1865 mm wide, and 1660 mm tall. That’s about 4.6 meters long, making it city-friendly but still commanding on highways. Ground clearance is 195 mm, so yes, it can handle Indian speed breakers without scraping its designer belly. Boot space is 520 liters, enough for 3 large suitcases and a cabin bag, perfect for airport runs or weekend escapes.

NX feels distinctly Japanese. You get a 14-inch touchscreen, heads-up display, plush leather upholstery, ambient lighting, and Lexus’s famously quiet cabin. The rear seats are roomy, though not S-Class roomy, and the overall vibe is minimalist luxury with cutting-edge tech.

The NX scored a strong 5-star Euro NCAP rating. It comes with Lexus Safety System+, including pre-collision warning, lane tracing assist, adaptive cruise, blind-spot detection, and 360-degree cameras. In plain words, it’s built like a tank with brains.

If you want an SUV that makes a statement without being flashy, if you’re tired of seeing every second car on the road being a BMW X3 or a Mercedes GLC, the Lexus NX is your ticket. It’s for buyers who like efficiency, understated luxury, and Toyota-level reliability dressed in designer clothes.

The Audi Q5 is priced between ₹56.24 lakh and ₹56.94 lakh depending on the variant. It positions itself as a balanced luxury SUV, sitting between the Q3 and Q7.

The latest update of the Q5 was launched in September 2024. It arrived with refreshed styling and updated tech features.

The Q5 comes with a 2.0-litre TFSI petrol engine paired with a 7-speed automatic and quattro all-wheel drive.
