Maybe I am missing something but many cars these days seem to have the tire pressure as one of those things you can easily scroll to on the Info screen near the speedometer. I know you can check the tire pressure going through the Vehicle tab from the Lexus App on the Info Screen (or whatever the main large screen is called) but it would be nice to have that as one of the Info choices on the display next to the speedometer as something you can scroll to.

It’s on the center screen with the NX.

You mean the main touchscreen? It would be nice to have on the display right in front of you.

IMO, there are already too many separate little semi-boring displays. Take away the tire pressure screen, boost pressure/oil pressure and temp screens, the steering angle/braking/acceleration/G-force and combine it all into an even newer AWD display screen. I think it would be cool to see all driving action parameters and info on one screen. And that's just the beginning. If I was leading the dev team, I'd have all the developers hiding under their desks screaming "no more, we need boring".

I agree 100%. It's one of the things driving me crazy.

My last two Volvos didn't even have the actual PSI per tire available at all. You had to use a tire pressure gauge to see what the PSI per tire was. The TPMS would only alert you if any tire was losing pressure enough to cause concern. I check the NX350H tire pressure regularly on the center screen. I don't mind using it at all. It gives me important data I want with ease. All my other premium badges provided the PSI per tire and I don't recall where it was displayed or what steps I had to take to access it. Strikes me as a first world problem to use the center screen for this info. I'm fine with it.

This is the default display that I use with my RDX mainly because pressures vary a lot with temperature.

I guess Lexus was following Tesla, so they figured as long as the info is available on the main display, it doesn't need to be in the instrument cluster.

Until 2022 it was on instrument cluster.

I agree there are too many useless things displayed:

1- Accelerometer on a slow hybrid car
2- trip time and fuel economy, bit no tank stats
4- useless bar graphs on center display when fuel economy minute but minute, but not tank by tank. I wonder who thought they needed to see how their fuel economy 2 minutes ago was........


Make the whole thing customizable. Let the customer decide everything they want to see and things they don't want to see.

Not a fan of the entire display.. speedometer,etc.
At this point … I can live with most of the nit picks and there are some. Biggest concern is reliability and service.
Compared to our other SUV’s it is a tin can. The transmission is not exactly world class (2024 350Lux)
For the price it has a ton of great safety feature's and I’ll take them.
I had a 450h ordered but backed out for a reason. Had nothing to do with the car itself. The dealership got unaccommodating. And I’m not sad about it.

What is more peculiar is that the Info tab on the display just left of the speedo has 6 "slots" for info. The first 3 are related to trip you are doing and mpg, etc. Then the 4th is the energy flow illustration and the 5th is the accelerometer (you know, for those times you take the SUV to the dragstrip) and the 6th slot is EMPTY, zilch, nada. Seems like this should be where the tire pressure info should be (which is the case on many other vehicles I have been in).

With all of you saying it's not there - I believe you. Especially since my wife is the daily driver of our 2022 NX 350. But this is in the owner's manual on page 337:

Tire pressure
The tire pressure detected by the tire pressure warning system can be displayed on
the center display.
Displaying the tire pressure on the center display
1 Select on the main menu.
2 Select [Tire pressure].

To clarify, yes you can call up the Lexus app on the main touch display and pick the vehicle symbol and get the tire pressure. But IMHO it is much more useful to hit the button on the steering wheel and have it show up in your normal line of sight on the instrument panel.
