2023 RX 500h Review: Did Lexus Truly Build a Sports SUV?

[@corvette214]

I purchased one of these, and I liked your ‘style’ of reviewing. Good job !

[@viewsonvehicles]

Awesome, thank you!

[@royalpools]

Thank you for a great video. I appreciate your review on this vehicle. We are waiting for the fully loaded plug-in hybrid version to come out and I would love to get your opinion on driving that model I’m hoping that being a plug-in electric with a larger battery will give more power without the droning noise of the four-cylinder every time you take off from a light and with a 35 to 40 mile range that should cover our daily commute. We currently have a 21 ES 300 H and are looking for something taller with a plug-in hybrid, do you know when you’ll be able to review that vehicle? Thanks again for your in-depth review. We appreciate it.

Thank you! I hope to get in a plug-in version sometime soon.

lol.... no.... they made a "quicker" luxury suv. Even their LC500 isn't what I would call a true sports car. Lexus is great at making reliable, quiet and comfortable vehicles. Performance and horsepower are not their forté.

[@naveenthemachine]

Even their LFA isn’t an exotic car since it’ll get smoked by a 4 door bmw m5 or a model s plaid or model 3 performance or a Kia ev6 GT ioniq5N Taycan Turbo S

[@naveenthemachine]

@@beri232 no it doesn’t actually. The rx500h does 0-60 in 5.8 seconds. My family’s v6 Toyota Camry does 0-60 in the same time of 5.8 seconds So your argument is weak 😂

@@beri232 what i said is true

[@joem8252]

It’s not fast enough. Needs to hit 60 in under 5 seconds to be competitive with other luxury crossovers

[@naveenthemachine]

The RX isn’t even faster than a v6 Camry or rav4 prime

[@badongtagalog5737]

@@naveenthemachinenah, this way better car than damry and rav 4 but I agree those cars are way better than a gv70

[@robertmurdock7530]

Some things I like, more I don't. Don't like the front end still, but not as ugly as the preceeding several years. Side & back look good. 4 cyl engine kills it for me.

[@naveenthemachine]

No they didn’t 😂 The 500h is just embarrassing It can’t even outperform a rav4 prime or even a Camry v6 both of which can already do 0-60 in 5.5-5.8 seconds Yet the RX costs significantly more while still being based on a Camry platform Combine that with dated styling, poor handling, a Toyota grade interior, useless tech nobody asked for, cramped rear seats, lacking features, and the fact that it can get very expensive make the RX an easy nonstarter

[@badongtagalog5737]

Nah, you havent diven one, he did. this is even better than a gv70 or 80 hyndai cars. Those car were designed to be a little faster because it needs tp vet to the service fast when it starts to break
