History of the Lexus NX Generation

The Lexus NX was introduced as a groundbreaking model in the premium compact crossover segment. The first generation (AZ10 platform) debuted at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show and went on sale in the United States as a 2015 model year vehicle. Production ran from August 2014 through November 2021 at Toyota’s Kyushu and Tahara plants in Japan. Designed to compete directly with the Audi Q5, BMW X3, and Mercedes-Benz GLC, the NX was Lexus’s first dedicated compact luxury SUV and was built on a modified version of the Toyota New MC platform (shared structurally with the RAV4 but with unique luxury tuning, styling, and powertrains).

The 2020 model year fell squarely in the refined post-facelift era (2018–2021), featuring the updated “spindle grille,” revised LED lighting, and enhanced Lexus Safety System+ suite. The NX 300 (formerly called NX 200t until 2017) became the volume seller thanks to its responsive 2.0L turbo engine and available all-wheel drive. Over its seven-year production run, the first-generation NX earned a reputation as one of the most reliable and comfortable entries in the luxury compact class, with strong resale values that hold up exceptionally well even today.

Fuel Economy, Horsepower & Torque Ratings

Under the hood sits Lexus’s proven 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine (8AR-FTS) producing 235 horsepower at 4,800 rpm and 258 lb-ft of torque available from a low 1,650 rpm all the way to 4,000 rpm. This broad torque band gives the NX effortless highway passing power and responsive around-town acceleration, with 0-60 mph times in the low-7-second range.

Fuel economy is outstanding for a turbocharged luxury SUV. The EPA rates this front-wheel-drive example at 22 mpg city / 28 mpg highway / 25 mpg combined — exactly as shown on the original window sticker. Real-world owners routinely see 24–27 mpg in mixed driving. The annual fuel cost is estimated at just $1,950 (assuming 15,000 miles per year and current fuel prices), and you’ll spend only $2,250 more in fuel costs over five years compared to the average new vehicle. Premium unleaded fuel is required, but the efficient direct- and port-injection system keeps consumption in check while delivering smooth, refined power.

What Makes the F Sport Special – Key Differences from Base Models

The F Sport package transforms the NX from a comfortable daily driver into a more engaging, athletic luxury SUV. Compared to the base NX 300 or Premium trim, the F Sport adds:

• Sport-Tuned Suspension with performance dampers for sharper handling and reduced body roll without sacrificing ride comfort.
• Unique Exterior Styling: Aggressive front and rear fascias, dark chrome accents, F Sport badging, and 18-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels.
• Exclusive Interior: Heavily bolstered F Sport NuLuxe seats with red contrast stitching and piping (this example features the striking black-and-red combination), perforated inserts, aluminum sport pedals, and a sport steering wheel with paddle shifters.
• Metallic Sport Trim throughout the cabin and an available Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) on higher F Sport packages.
• Enhanced Driving Modes with a dedicated Sport+ setting that sharpens throttle response and steering.

In short, the F Sport gives you the visual excitement and dynamic feel of a performance model while retaining the legendary Lexus quietness and refinement that base models already deliver so well. This specific car has the full F Sport treatment, making it one of the most desirable configurations in the lineup.

How the 2020 NX 300 F Sport Stacked Up Against the Competition & Engine Reliability

In the 2020 compact luxury SUV segment, the NX 300 F Sport competed against the Acura RDX, Audi Q5, BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLC 300, and Alfa Romeo Stelvio. While the German competitors often offered more powerful engines or sharper handling in top trims, the Lexus consistently won on long-term reliability, lower ownership costs, superior resale value, and quiet, comfortable ride quality.

The NX was frequently praised for its bulletproof build quality and lower maintenance costs. The 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine (shared with other Toyota/Lexus products) has proven to be exceptionally reliable. Consumer Reports, J.D. Power, and owner forums consistently rate it among the top in its class, with many examples surpassing 150,000–200,000 miles with routine maintenance. Common issues are virtually nonexistent when services are followed, and the engine’s dual-injection system and robust cooling design make it far more durable than many rival turbo fours.

This particular NX 300 F Sport combines that legendary reliability with the sportier demeanor owners love, all while sitting in a much lower price bracket than a comparable new or CPO German alternative.

NHTSA 5-Star Ratings

Safety was a priority for Lexus in 2020. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) awarded the 2020 Lexus NX 300 a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score — the highest possible rating. Breakdown:

• Overall Vehicle Score: ★★★★★ (5 stars)
• Frontal Crash: ★★★★★ (5 stars) – Driver and Passenger
• Side Crash: ★★★★★ (5 stars)
• Rollover: ★★★★☆ (4 stars) – Excellent for a compact SUV

The vehicle comes standard with Lexus Safety System+ including pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane-departure alert with steering assist, dynamic radar cruise control, and automatic high beams. This example also has the available Intuitive Parking Assist and Blind Spot Monitor, giving you complete peace of mind.

This 2020 Lexus NX 300 F Sport is a rare find — low miles, pristine history, striking color combination, and loaded with the desirable F Sport package. It offers the perfect blend of luxury, performance, efficiency, and long-term reliability that has made Lexus the benchmark in the premium segment. Whether you are upgrading from a mainstream crossover or moving down from a larger luxury SUV, this vehicle will exceed your expectations in comfort, confidence, and cost of ownership.
