An Impreza was scorched and caused a standstill on Hwy 401 over Easter weekend. There was no EMS which is a good sign that no one got injured. So we got out, enjoyed the weather and snapped some shots while the fire was put out.
Hi CorradiMR2 what do you mean by looking underneath?
Basically, look under the car to see the center axle and rear differential to know it's an AWD.
Not the greatest shot but you see the center axle running the length of the NX.
FWD vehicles don't have this.
Now the 300h AWD is the exception, like the RX and Highlander hybrids, there is no axle or rear diff but instead an electric motor to each of the left and right rear wheel.
Nice ride. Exact color I am getting. How do you tell if it is AWD? For example Audi is Quattro, BMW is X drive
If you're referring to the NX300h (USA) then the AWD will have roof rails; FWD models will not. On the turbo models I'm not sure how to tell. Like corradoMR2 stated look underneath; I believe he might be referring to the components/drive shaft maybe?

Just saw your new post. That answers that question.
Auto transmission only, but you can manually change the gears with transmission shifter or on F Sport models, via the steering-mounted paddle shifters.
Finally got around to putting some new shoes on, thanks corradoMR2 for the inspiration .
The rims haven't fully grown on me yet. I envisioned them looking a little different in my head but oh well!
Rims@19x8.5 +30
Tires@ 245/50/19
Squared setup and is *almost flush. No poking on the rears, the front pokes a wee bit but only where the front fender curves and towards the bottom.

Glad I could be of help. The 19x9.5" + 35 would have stuck out a little too much. The ones you got are perfectly flush and look great.
