I saw one today and it looks MUCH better in-person. Quite nice actually.

[@sergh8605]

I love this I use to drive a Juke lol so this one is a more grown up for me

[@ahramsong]

best design in lexus line up

[@blackwhite8738]

Looks great in person

[@dongravenor9153]

Actually like the look and size; am wondering whether this is a substantial jump over the Ford Edge Sport. Any ocmments?

[@kubanskiloewe]

seems my 2010 model needs a update ;-)

[@giveawayssubscribers4249]

How do I get this RX 450h without the shark thin antena?

[@britneytimberlake11]

It's either you love it or hate it. Yeah it looks odd on video but it's beautiful in real life

[@kabysummit5801]

Interior can hold 2x4x10s Front seats lay all the way down almost flat Air conditioning will operate as long as the batteries continue to charge which depends on the motor charging it

[@ryanfisher7164]

I like big grills and I cannot lie, all you other brothers can't deny, when an RX450h f Sport rolls up with the spindle you get spun.

[@xarshadx787]

Lmfao im done. 😂😂😂

[@foam27]

ok hun

[@feedyourfaith7392]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😏

[@kabysummit5801]

Cringy middle age humor, not gonna lie

[@bluelake1621]

U got a rap career

[@badimpulses17]

The era of autonomous cars is just around the corner.

[@upilufti]

I can't understand why car designers feel like they have to evoke "motion" with car design. The damn thing is a car, it moves.

[@fkporsche1]

Pretty refined SUV.

[@pedrof830]

Finally took off the "review" part of the headline.

[@jonnybravo7325]

wath about the wire under the back car ??? wath they are ?

[@Neno8403]

Very beautiful suv. All the morons talking about how ugly this is, will break their necks to catch a glimpse of it whenever they see it in real life, because they know how bad ass it looks. Then they'll run home in whatever crap domestic vehicle they drive, to troll an RX video and talk about how ugly it is out of butt hurt and envy.

[@turbo_s]

+Khemistry Everyone has opinions, I personally don't like it, but I do think it looks better than the rest of the lineup. You can think it's beautiful,and I can think it's ugly. Not everybody is forced to think it is beautiful.

[@jelly1928]

+Khemistry man, i couldnt have said it better myself

[@flappospammo]

+Khemistry buy a porsche , unlike this pos it's got a real engine not a wind up toy

[@zklucsc]

+Khemistry To be honesty, as this design of RX, it just like the NX from last year. there will be hater or lover! as long we like it, let is go for it! who care what other people think lol.

[@flappospammo]

.

[@Drackleyrva]

It takes regular unleaded fuel--87 octane??

[@rockin1k70]

Mason R it does

[@BokiXI]

Looks good. Anything that steps away from the boring looks of standard "drawn with a ruler" German or cheap asian (Hyundai/Kia/Toyota) design is a good design.

[@willtang9673]

hope you know Lexus is also Toyota

[@BokiXI]

+Weiliang T That's why I wrote "cheap" Asian. This is expensive Asian.

[@BTC909]

Tone down the spindle.

[@IndyFlick]

Sure, there are those that will say the new Luxus design is fugly but I disagree. I would say it leans more toward ghastly.

[@reerbaadia1896]

This is one vehicle that doesn't need 2 be pimped or whatever it's called

[@markg7030]

I never heard so much B.S. aerodynamic tail lights? That front grille looks like a 1959 Plymouth and no bumper to protect it. How many times will your insurance pay to replace the grille and chrome trim every time somebody backs into it?

[@sergevivier956]

Who was the chief designer for this vehicle?

[@marietelelafoiedesir5064]

How can see this car ?

[@marietelelafoiedesir5064]

Where are you

[@softytop1000]

Looks like something that came out of the sea, a giant crustacean if you will!!

[@Penelope416]

Wait... is there an actual camera above the car or is this just a 3D monitoring structure of the car all around?

[@andrewyang9095]

It's a bunch of cameras and they stich it together with software

[@andrewyang9095]

+Andrew Yang stitch*

[@Penelope416]

+Andrew Yang Whoa.... so mystical.

[@nikos-giorgos]

I think you should zoom in a little bit more so we'll really have no idea what car you're reviewing...

[@Penelope416]

Lol, I know right! Everyone had a Lexus in this video.

[@nikos-giorgos]

+Penelope416 My comment was really about the lack of external shots(car as a whole), except the ones driving the other lexuses? of course...

[@derek8591]

just the cargo space....way too small

[@Ooooiops]

I'm going to buy RX 350 2016 but the luxury classic one I won't buy the sport RX because the grille is so ugly 😠

[@shivanm27]

i like the grille but its to big

[@shivanm27]

tailights is dope tho

[@GuuiYae]

Honestly the shape of the car looks really attractive, but comparing the technology with Rav 4 hybrid 2016, I think Rav 4 is better and price is more reasonable

[@aujla7564]

ahhh it's lexus u get much more luxury over toyota

[@Ooooiops]

You can't compare a luxury car with regular car :) We know Toyota a strong car but for luxury you should compare it with BMW or Range Rover

[@aujla7564]

+MrLiberali I think lexus is more luxurious but BMW is land Rover are sportier

[@krisjohn6977]

Rav4 is a 27k car and Lexus rx is around 50k

[@GuuiYae]

@@krisjohn6977 4 years later, here I am, got an Rx 450h 2020. :)

[@LacoteCohen]

it's ugly until they can buy their own, smh.

[@blenguini]

in other rx 2016 video i saw you commenting its beautiful... i personally think its nice

[@weewilly2007]

Relevancy filters aside, what do you have, a double degree in car salesmenship? It's a mighty large gap dividing suaveness from shabbiness after all, make sure no one falls in and breaks their heads from the great disparity am I right? Don't I feel like an inadequate country hick, not your fault right, mine! More so with the Country Club backdrop featured in the background. Just a bit fishy in totality is all. Speaks of managing other peoples viewpoints, while catering to your own needs. A particular approach to life that is not necessarily a product of affluence or success is it?

[@corndawgz]

points at the tailight and says THOSE 2 HUMPS? they help with the airflow... MY FUCKING ASS IT DOES.. LMAO yeah sure by what? 0.00000000002 drag?

[@TheServantOfAllah99]

looks like a Toyota Venza with upgraded lights

[@PwnstarUK]

spindles look bad

[@MrAby007]

bmw is for old people

[@mrnew2008]

2 more things, it looks like a Nissan Murano and it has way too much plastic along the wheel wells for the amount $$$ it costs

[@stea8629]

Like LED is premium.. back in the 80's we went thru those like crazy and dirt cheap.. now its a miracle from god or something.. BS rip off

[@abinormal8374]

Well the one thing he forgot to mention is that in Canada the 2016 F-Sport costs the same as a fully loaded Audi "S" Q5. Now lets see, Japanese technology for old people or red hot German technology with 350 HP and handling that is second to none. Sorry Lexus.

[@turbo_s]

+Robert Crumb Keep in mind that the Lexus is a segment up, competing with the Lincoln MKX, Mercedes-Benz GLE, and Cadillac XT5. The Q5 competes with the Mercedes-Benz GLC, Lincoln MKC, and Lexus NX, so the RX will be a bargain buy for many people. The SQ5 prioritizes handling, while the RX is luxury first. I like the SQ5 more though.

[@nameunko]

Lexus doesn't make good handling cars but Audis handling is shittier than Lexus.

[@nameunko]

[@paulfrederick9113]

Ok let's see what we have here , audi it's a rebadge vw and canada don't even know how to build a bike lol

[@turbo_s]

Paul Frederick No Audi is a rebadged Volkswagen. Rebadging is simply swapping out the badges and maybe the grille. You can say that a few of Audi's cars share platforms with VWs, like the A1 with the Polo and the A3 with the Golf, but most of the Audi lineup doesn't have a related VW. Most Audis have their engines placed longitudinally, with most of the engine hanging in front of the axle. Now let's compare that to VW, whose cars are mostly in a transverse layout, where the engine is on the axle and placed horizontally.

[@Sweetblood777]

Lexus is trying for ugly. Looks like an ocean bottom fish sucking up whatever is left in the food chain that makes it to the bottom.

[@shopwithaaron]

That.Is.Ugly....

[@Blankadoodledo]

Omg...wtf is this? Looks horrible. Wow.

[@jhindson88]

Only need to know 2 things: 1) Another fossil-fueled dinosaur that no one should purchase 2) Butt ugly which hopefully helps dissuade anyone from purchasing one Done !

[@flappospammo]

1-10 it's ugly and has a shitty engine oh and 1 mile electric drive ONE MILE LOL

[@Blankadoodledo]

Horrible...Im sorry but i couldn't even finish watching the review. Just horrible looking car.

[@jamesjones950]

If you find this car attractive, you have NO taste. Ugly ugly ugly. Disgusting front end. Also, the man describing it needs telling: There are no degrees of "unique". That is to say, there is no such thing as "very unique". Unique or not unique, nothing in between. And unique does not mean pretty.

[@MrAby007]

bmw is for old people

[@Ooooiops]

Lol X6 bmw still for young :)
