The previous hybrid, non PHEV model was the top selling SUV in its size category the US. Interiors are always well thought out and just great in Lexus. Nice luxury touches all over. Its a premium brand but that price is a bit astonishing. Fuel efficiency is commendable! This would be great for longer daily commutes in Dallas, and for longer road trips as well. Another home run for Lexus, I expect. Really great review. Thanks. I do like the way you are matching your outfits (or hair) colors to the car colors! We do notice! :)

Love the shape, apart from the grille, like the interior quite a lot but the 2.5 Turbo won't last as long as the old V6 unit. Lack of the V6 would take the RX off my shopping list.

I saw that the Lexus RX used to come with a 3.5-litre naturally aspirated V6 engine. However, in 2022, they decided to swap it with a 2.4-litre turbo 4cyl. Same case with the Toyota Highlander in North America (or the Kluger as it’s available in Ozzyland). The 2.4 turbo is more torquey than the V6, but is down on horsepower. Note that I’m referring to the RX 350 that is not available in Europe.

Lexus has in the UK gone from being ignored, to being ridiculed/derided, to being recognised as the international luxury brand it is in less than 10 years. Imagine when the Brits find out these machines are basically bulletproof and last 20+ years with minimal maintenance. Wonder how the Germans (and Land Rover) will respond?

like the idea of the self charging hybrid as well as plug-in hybrid, especially for longer journeys, giving less fuel anxiety. Can you select it to drive on say the motorway using the self charging mode to maintain the plug-in range battery for going to citys with congestion charges, bristol/london etc, or like when i drive to my job which is approx 120 miles away, but then only stay about 3 miles from work, so over my 4 or 5 days at work i do 24-30 miles, to which i could then use the eletric motor instead, as that would be a great option. Also does the self charging battery actually trickle charge the plug in battery, or does it just maintain its own battery charge? Do you think they will incorporate this is the toyota range of vehicles aswell, considering they are all part of the same grou, so maybe in something like the RAV-4 or something bring that overall cost down, as that £65-80K price point is as you say quite high?

Another great review Tish. Without any doubt this is a great and well equipped car however the initial cost for me anyway it is way to expensive. There are other things that I would spend that sort of money on. I might consider a used example if I could justify it though as that 'could' save quite a lot of money. It would also be useful to get a view on the initial reliability of all of those really useful features. Great production and editing Tish and thanks for sharing.

Am i missing something? why do we want a car that requires both forms of top up, petrol AND electric. I just don't get that. either fill it up with fuel or charge it up with power but with this you have to waste your time doing both. that seems like a backward move. That said, Lexus quality, reliability and looks that don't follow the mainstream trend, not bad at all.

As this is supposed to be a hybrid why do you need to charge it up at now a very high cost that matches the cost of Fuel? I think this is the biggest mistake ever. The costs of Charging have gone up so much it equals the cost of buying fuel. Why is no one stating this now. The only way forward with cars it to make them run only on Hydrogen no batteries.
@AutoSocialUK
@AutoSocialUK Жыл бұрын
Only really if you charge publicly, i still know lots of people charging for much less at home. I agree it isn’t as appealing as it once was but the cheaper charging from home and tax benefits still make it a good move for a lot of people. I do see your point though, not likely the direction things will eventually head in.
