Gear Patrol later reported that the 2027 NX will be offered with two powertrain options, framing the launch as an electrification effort. The dual‑option claim contrasts with the earlier hybrid‑only narrative.

As of now, Lexus positions the NX as a hybrid‑centric vehicle, though the exact powertrain lineup remains ambiguous.
