2021 NX Exterior
It might not be the youngest on the block, but the exterior styling of the 2021 Lexus NX still looks crisp and attractive. The base model features bi-LED headlamps, LED taillamps and daytime running lights, power-folding auto-dimming heated outside mirrors with auto tilt-down, a set of roof rails, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The F Sport looks meaner thanks to a set of 18-inch split five-spoke alloys, an F Sport front fascia and rear valance, and a mesh front grille with smoked chrome trim and black mirror caps. The Luxury trim adds its own set of wheels and rain-sensing window wipers, and both it and the F Sport have a power moonroof. Hybrid models, meanwhile, feature a concealed exhaust, and the Hybrid Black Line Edition includes 18-inch split-10-spoke alloy wheels with a dark finish, black outside mirrors, and color-keyed overfenders.

Exterior Colors
The NX's shapely body looks great in almost every color, and Lexus offers a range of interesting hues that make the most of the NX's curves. The base model is available in your choice of seven exterior colors: Atomic Silver, Nebula Gray Pearl, Caviar, Matador Red Mica, and Nori Green Pearl. Cadmium Orange and Eminent White Pearl are extra-cost options. The NX 300 F Sport adds Obsidian as a standard option, with Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0 as an extra-cost one. e Caviar, Eminent White, and Nori Green fall away, though. Blue Vortex metallic is no longer available in 2021. We'd go for the F Sport purely because Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0 looks so cool.
