They are a dealer accessory I believe, but you are right that they should be on he site as well.

This has typically been the case I've noticed.

Can you get me this matrix? i would love to take a look at it.

What's hilarious? The iPhone isn't built with a Qi inductive charger. That's how the system works. The phone has to have that technology built in. If not, Google iPhone and Qi. I'm sure you'll find a product to make it work.

First Google result of "qi compatible phones":

Regarding all the power options - of the few F-Sports at my local dealership, all have come with the power gate, but manual rear seats. Additionally, they've also come with the Qi charger. Power moon-roof too, of course -- though I think the "expansive" moon roof (if I remember that correctly on Lexus.com) isn't available, since that's the panoramic................????

Good to know. I have been scouting the NX for a little bit now, and am also just trying to figure out what is available with what. One thing I could not figure out was whether the F-Sport would have the power gate or not. I had actually come to the conclusion that it may not be available based on the limited info I could find, which both irritated and confused me. Glad to hear it actually does/can.

I was kind of bummed about the iPhone not being compatible with Qi charging tray also. Although from what I've read it has more to do with Apple not adopting the Qi standard than it is Lexus making the tray iPhone compatible. There are some articles online stating Apple hasn't bought into the Qi charging concept yet.

and just to make matters more confusing, building an NX for my region on the site lists heated and ventilated seats as part of the Premium Package for the F-Sport. I had been operating under the assumption all along that the ventilated seats were, sadly, not available for the F-Sport. Don't know if this is an error on the site or what...
