Toyota North America has filled trademarks for two new models that apparently will join their line-up in the near future: NX 200t and NX 300h. Judging by their nomenclature, we believe these models will be added to the Lexus line-up, specifically their SUV line-up (taking the X in their names under consideration).
It is also not very difficult to understand that one trademark - the NX 200t - will be the gasoline version, while the other one - the NX 300h - is for a hybrid model. The NX 200t will be powered by the company’s new 2.0-liter, turbo-charged AR engine set to launch in 2014, while the 300h will get the same hybrid powertrain as in the Lexus ES 300h: a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder Atkinson cycle hybrid engine.
The new Lexus NX will be placed under the company’s current RX (pictured here) and will most likely debut on the market sometime in 2015.
