2026 Lexus TX: A Three-Row Luxury SUV for Fresno-Area Families
The 2026 Lexus TX is Lexus’s three-row luxury SUV, designed for families across Fresno, Clovis, Madera, Selma, and Visalia who need genuine room for up to seven, a quiet and well-finished cabin, and a choice of gas, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid power. Whether you’re handling the weekday school run, a Saturday morning at the Visalia Farmers Market, or a weekend drive toward the Sierra Nevada foothills east of Clovis, the TX is built around comfort and everyday usability.
Three Powertrains, One Refined SUV
Unlike many rivals, the 2026 TX offers three distinct powertrains so you can match the SUV to how you actually drive — a turbocharged gas four-cylinder, a turbocharged hybrid, and a plug-in hybrid V6.
| Model | Engine | Horsepower | Drivetrain | Fuel Economy | Available Trims |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TX 350 | 2.4L Turbocharged I4 | 275 hp | FWD standard, AWD available | 23 mpg combined (21/27 FWD; 20/26 AWD) | TX 350, Premium, Luxury, F SPORT Handling |
| TX 500h F SPORT Performance | 2.4L Turbocharged Hybrid | 366 hp | Standard AWD (DIRECT4) | ~27 mpg combined | Premium, Luxury |
| TX 550h+ | 3.5L V6 Plug-in Hybrid | 404 hp | Standard AWD (DIRECT4) | ~29 mpg combined + 33-mi EV range | Luxury |
The TX 350 and TX 500h are rated to tow up to 5,000 lbs when properly equipped; towing is not recommended on the plug-in TX 550h+. Gas and hybrid models use premium unleaded fuel.
Maximum towing and payload capacity figures are based on properly equipped vehicles and vary by configuration. Do not exceed any weight rating. See your owner’s manual and the vehicle’s door-jamb label for specific capacities.
EPA-estimated fuel economy figures are for comparison purposes only. Your actual mileage will vary depending on driving conditions, how you drive and maintain your vehicle, battery age/condition, and other factors.
Comfortable, Confident Everyday Driving
The TX is engineered as a smooth, on-road luxury SUV. Front-wheel drive comes standard on the TX 350, with all-wheel drive available for added traction in rain or on the highway — and standard on the F SPORT Handling, TX 500h, and TX 550h+. The eight-speed automatic on the TX 350 delivers calm, predictable shifts well suited to Fresno commutes and longer Central Valley drives alike.
Room for the Whole Family
Built around a usable third row that adults can sit in for shorter trips, the TX 350 seats up to seven with its second-row bench (standard on the base trim, available on Premium and Luxury). Models fitted with second-row captain’s chairs — including the F SPORT Handling, TX 500h, and TX 550h+ — seat six. Heated and ventilated second-row captain’s chairs are available on Premium and Luxury models for added comfort on longer drives.

A premium Mark Levinson surround-sound audio system is available on Premium, Luxury, and F SPORT Handling models for a richer listening experience.

- Pre-collision system with pedestrian detection and automatic emergency braking

- Road-sign assist and automatic high beams
