2022 Volvo XC60 vs. 2022 Lexus NX

The 2022 Volvo XC60 has a long list of standard driver assistance features. This luxury compact SUV rates high in terms of its feature-rich interior too. Car buyers in Manhattan are guaranteed a large cargo hold, comfortable seating configuration, and a cushioned ride with this vehicle.

For the Lexus NX, there is a promise to offer a long list of safety features to its users. There is also a roomy seating arrangement inside. Blind spot monitoring is now offered as a standard for this ride.

Design & Style

The 2022 Volvo XC60 starts with a cargo area of 22.4 cubic feet when all seats are in use. This expands further to provide 63.3 cubic feet of room when the second row is folded down. Seating up to five people, both rows of seats are spacious and comfortable. When it comes to cabin design, this one has the right elements. Expect no less than top-notch materials inside the cabin.

When it comes to the Lexus NX 2022 version, you will find the plush front seats accommodating, with plenty of legroom and headroom for taller passengers in that area. The rear seats are not as generous in terms of space when compared to the first row. The thick roof pillars in it compromise outward visibility. There is not much to expect in terms of interior construction too.

Technology & Safety

The 2022 XC60 carries a nine-inch touch screen for its Sensus infotainment system. This has a vertically-oriented touch screen that displays readable graphics, and quickly responds to user inputs. It has touch screen controls that can be used to access its other amenities like the 10 speakers, navigation, and smartphone integration. It is also outfitted with a panoramic sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, HD radio, satellite radio, and Bluetooth. Safety equipment standard to the ride are lane keep assist, lane departure warning, run-off road mitigation and protection, rearview camera, and forward collision waring, among others.

For the Lexus NX, there is an eight-inch touch screen paired with the Remote Touch infotainment interface. It has a touchpad that can be used to control functions for the system. This one is a hassle though. It has a USB port, Wi-Fi hot spot, eight speakers, and a Bluetooth interface. It also integrates Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa. Standard safety equipment includes rearview camera, rear cross traffic alert, traffic sign recognition, blind spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control.

Performance

The 2022 Volvo XC60 starts with a base engine, turbocharged to complete a power for 250 horses. The next one is a combination of a turbocharged with a supercharged engine, powerful enough to yield up to 316 horsepower. The turbo-four and electric motor in the plug-in hybrid can reach up to 400 horsepower in terms of results. All these numbers are better than the one produced by the turbo-four in the NX which can only put off 235 horsepower.

The Bottom Line

The 2022 Volvo XC60 combines great design elements with a long list of technology and safety features. This also has a lot of powerful powertrains. All-in-all, it defeats the 2022 Lexus NX.
