The 2019 Lexus NX 300 F SPORT Black Line Special Edition emerges as a testament to Lexus’s commitment to crafting extraordinary driving experiences. Building upon the already dynamic NX 300 F SPORT, this special edition amplifies the senses through meticulously curated design enhancements, performance-inspired features, and a soundscape that resonates with driving enthusiasts. For those considering the Lexus lineup, including models like the Lexus Is 2019, the NX F SPORT Black Line offers a unique blend of SUV versatility and sporty sophistication.
This special edition, rooted in the popular F SPORT trim, retains essential features like Lexus Safety System+ and Lexus Enform Wi-Fi, alongside Apple CarPlay™ integration, ensuring seamless connectivity and safety for the modern driver. However, the NX F SPORT Black Line elevates the driving experience through distinctive styling cues and design nuances both inside and out.
Interior Refinement and Auditory Excellence
Stepping inside the NX F SPORT Black Line unveils two significant firsts for the NX series. The cabin is graced with an exclusive Mark Levinson® 14-speaker, 835-watt Premium Surround Sound Audio System, creating an immersive auditory environment. Complementing this sonic masterpiece are the uniquely designed F SPORT Arctic White and Black seats. These body-hugging, quilted NuLuxe® sport seats, a hallmark of the F SPORT family, are tailored for the Black Line Special Edition with a coordinated black headliner, exclusive floor mats, cargo mat, and key gloves, creating a cohesive and premium interior aesthetic.

The NX Black Line distinguishes itself further with an exclusive 10.3” Navigation System multimedia display, operated via the Remote Touchpad. This advanced system provides real-time traffic updates, including detour previews, accurate ETA calculations, and low-fuel coordination with nearby gas stations. The subscription-free Lexus Enform® App Suite 2.0 is standard across all models, adding to the vehicle’s technological prowess. When comparing to other Lexus models from the same year, such as the Lexus IS 2019, the NX Black Line boasts a more comprehensive suite of integrated technology tailored for the modern driver.
Further enhancing the driving experience, the NX F SPORT Black Line comes standard with the Comfort Package, featuring Blind Spot Monitor and Heated/Ventilated Front Seats, along with Power Tilt/Telescoping Steering Column, Intuitive Parking Assist, Power Rear Door with Kick Sensor, Moonroof, and Auto-dimming inside rear-view mirror. The inclusion of Active Sound Control (ASC) amplifies the engine’s auditory feedback within the cabin, allowing drivers to adjust the engine note volume to their preference, further connecting them to the driving dynamics. These features collectively underscore the vehicle’s focus on driver comfort and engagement, setting it apart even from other sporty sedans like the Lexus IS 2019 in terms of feature richness within the SUV category.
Exterior Styling and Limited Edition Appeal
The exterior of the NX 300 F SPORT Black Line Special Edition is available in Ultra White, Obsidian, and Atomic Silver, each hue accentuating its distinctive lines. This limited production run of only 1,000 units ensures exclusivity and turns heads with its F SPORT 19” split-six-spoke wheels and lower sport body side graphic. These meticulously designed alloy wheels, combined with the lower body alignment and larger exhaust opening (standard on NX F SPORT models), contribute to a more assertive and dynamic stance on the road.

With its limited availability and enhanced styling, the 2019 NX 300 F SPORT Black Line Special Edition, while distinct from the Lexus IS 2019 in body style, shares the Lexus commitment to luxury and performance. Starting at an MSRP of $48,575 for the FWD model and $49,975 for the AWD version, this special edition crossover began arriving at dealerships in February, offering a unique opportunity for discerning drivers to own a truly distinctive Lexus. The unveiling of the 2019 NX F SPORT Black Line Edition at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show, alongside the 2019 LC Inspiration Series debut, further solidified Lexus’s dedication to pushing boundaries in automotive design and driving pleasure.
