The Lexus NX may be a bit of left-field choice, but as our love affair with diesel continues to diminish, this family-sized hybrid SUV looks ideally placed to fill the void. Although the extravagant ‘gangsta’ styling may not be to everyone’s taste, there is very little else to turn your nose up at. Huge positives include precision build quality, an immaculately tailored interior and unburstable mechanical integrity, which give Lexus’s cars their legendary reliability status.
