📌 The Core Development
The Lexus TX Hybrid has upscale aspirations, despite being based on the very sensible and family-friendly Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid. That’s not a dig—the TX Hybrid seats six passengers and offers a fair amount of cargo space, a solid starting point. It then goes beyond the Toyota by featuring more premium interior materials and wrapping it all in stylish sheet metal with an updated version of Lexus’s trademark spindle grille.
A hybrid powertrain comprising a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and two electric motors makes a combined 366 horsepower; a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive are standard. (The former PHEV version has been discontinued.) While power is more than sufficient for most drivers, the TX Hybrid's fuel economy is average for the class.

📊 Industry & Real-World Impact
The big news for 2027 is the discontinuation of the TX550h+ plug-in hybrid variant, leaving the TX500h as the only hybrid choice. TX Hybrids also come only in F Sport trim now as well. Otherwise, changes are limited to minor cosmetic updates, including the Matador Red Mica exterior color; “AWD” badges replace the former “DIRECT4” badging.

🔮 Strategic Outlook & What Lies Ahead
If this year's model is largely unchanged and you're comfortable with a lightly used car, you may want to consider shopping previous model years. A one-to-three-year-old model will likely have a warranty and it'll cost less than buying new.
All TX500hs are powered by a hybrid powertrain consisting of a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and two electric motors for a combined 366 horsepower. A six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive are both standard. (The TX550h+ PHEV has been discontinued.) The TX Hybrid is a competent handler, and we were impressed with it through some of Austin, Texas's twisty hill country . However, over rough pavement, the TX500h models deliver a less than peaceful ride. For maximum comfort, consider the nonhybrid TX350, which takes a softer approach. (We review the nonhybrid TX models separately.)
