Engineered with a genuinely usable third row, the 2026 Lexus TX 350 stands out as an incredibly accommodating luxury family vehicle. Its highlights include a smooth ride, upscale seating comfort, and confident acceleration. When browsing the inventory, many shoppers compare the 350 Base against the 350 Premium trim. Let’s review the key differences between these two popular options.
Performance
Under the hood of both models sits a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing a stout 275 horsepower. An eight-speed automatic transmission delivers crisp, smooth shifts under all driving conditions. While front-wheel drive is the default configuration, buyers can upgrade to an all-wheel-drive system. The TX isn't just comfortable—it's also capable of towing up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped.
Appearance
Both the TX 350 Base and Premium trims offer a highly fashionable look that ensures you travel in style. Their aerodynamic body lines project a modern, upscale aesthetic. The front end is defined by a bold Unified Spindle grille and standard Bi-LED headlights with daytime running lamps. To customize your ride, you can choose from high-end exterior colors such as Eminent White Pearl and Matador Red Mica.
To tell them apart from the side profile, look at the wheels. The Base trim rolls on 20-inch multispoke alloy wheels with a dark gray finish, whereas the Premium trim features 20-inch multispoke alloy wheels with a striking machined finish.
Features
As a base model, the TX 350 Base sets a high bar for luxury. It comes well-stocked with premium features, including heated, power-adjustable front seats and a three-zone automatic climate control system. Its standard Lexus Interface multimedia setup includes a crisp 14.0-inch touchscreen with seamless wireless smartphone integration. Drivers will also appreciate the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, durable NuLuxe upholstery, and the safety net of Lexus Safety System+ 3.0.
Stepping up to the Premium trim brings several notable upgrades to the table. It introduces ventilated front seats for year-round comfort and power-folding third-row seats that drop at the push of a button to optimize cargo space. A beautiful panoramic glass roof is another standout addition on the Premium trim, along with a memory function for the driver’s seat.
