Growing families across Ontario need practical solutions: enough seating for everyone, cargo space that adapts, and towing capability for weekend trips. The 2025 Lexus TX delivers seating for up to seven passengers, 1,625 litres of cargo capacity behind the second row, and up to 2,268 kg (5,000 lbs) of towing capability. Ten distinct grades offer a range of features from refined comfort to sportier F SPORT styling.
The TX combines space with thoughtful design. Access to the third row uses a slide assist walk-in mechanism, making entry easier for passengers of all ages. The second-row seats adjust independently in seven-passenger configurations, or can be replaced with captain's chairs for six-passenger layouts with a centre console. Behind the third row, there's room for seven carry-on suitcases. When you need more cargo space, the power-folding third row opens up 1,625 litres, and folding the second row expands capacity to 2,747 litres.

Every TX 350 is powered by a 2.4 L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing 275 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. The eight-speed automatic transmission with sequential shift mode and electronically-controlled full-time all-wheel drive handle Ontario's variable weather and road conditions.
