The Lexus NX – a baby brother to the RX and, Lexus hopes, some serious competition for the Range Rover Evoque – went on sale in the UK in May 2014, but now we get the new 2.0 litre turbo version in the UK too.

The Lexus NX 200t F Sport is the ‘sporty’ version of the new NX, and comes with four-wheel-drive and F Sport trim to make sure you know, with the 2.0 litre turbo engine – mated to a new six-speed auto gearbox – delivering 235bhp and promising decent performance (although Lexus hasn’t actually said how quick it is) and economy of 35.8mpg.

There’s nothing really novel about the 200t’s F Sport spec as it’s much the same as the regular 300h F-Sport, which means stuff like a sporty exterior styling package (although it does get twin tail pipes) and some sport titivation for the interior including body-hugging leather seats.

Again, just like the 300h, the 200t F Sport comes with stuff like 18″ alloys, LED headlights, wireless phone charging, power tailgate, parking sensors, privacy glass, reversing camera and Climate.

The Lexus NX 200t F Sport is now on sale in the UK with first deliveries in March 2015.
