Changes to 2017 NX?
Just picked up a 2017 Canadian Nx200t Fsport 3 and notice they must of fixed the delay in acceleration in eco and normal mode because it goes off the line quicker than a 2015 and 2016. Also notice cabin and road noise significantly quiter than the 2015/2016. Car is also equipped with AVS. Brakes are still a big spongey. Just curious is there a list of changes to the 2017 vs 2016?

^^^+1.
The noticeable changes are set for the mid-cycle refresh in the 2018 MY.
New tires are quieter than used ones which could have contributed to the perceived reduced noise. Also, it's not impossible Lexus performed a software update to the transmission or throttle mapping for reduced throttle delay.

Yes! Me, too! I am 100% confident that if I go to the dealer with my '16 and tell them I need to have the improved mapping used for the '17 to eliminate the noticeable hesitation, they will deny any changes or updates. It would be fun to be armed with the specifics!

I'd like to join the crowd. Tee hesitation in ECO is flat out bad.
Regarding changes I noticed that the LED headlight option on the '17 now has intelligent high beams and lane departure built into the package for the F Sport.
