2024 Lexus RX350H - Ultra Luxury Midsize SUV!

Thanks: İSMAİL ALTIN OTOMOTİV

2024 Lexus RX
Starting at $49.950

Highs: Modernized looks, luxurious interior, intuitive infotainment system.
Lows: Driving demeanor is rather snooze-worthy, entry-level models lack zoom, other compact luxury SUVs are simply more fun.
Verdict: Lexus's popular RX is a premium SUV with upscale styling, but its road manners are too relaxed for our tastes.

Overview

While other compact luxury crossovers take a sporty approach, the 2024 Lexus RX goes for a soft-riding, relaxed demeanor. Even the RX500h F Sport Performance is neither sporty nor performant. Don't get us wrong, it gets up and goes pretty well, running to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds at our test track, but it fails to inspire spirited driving in the same way rivals such as the Alfa Romeo Stelvio and the Porsche Macan do. If you're okay with that, the RX delivers a creamy ride, an upscale cabin, and a luxury presence—which are all traits it has been offering for several generations. The cabin is spacious for both people and cargo, but if you're looking for a third row of seats, you'll need to look to the new TX SUV, which replaces the stretched RX-L in the Lexus lineup.

What's New for 2024?

A plug-in RX450h+ model joins the RX lineup for 2024, complete with a battery large enough for up to 35 miles of electric-only driving. The RX450h+ is offered only in loaded Luxury trim and serves as the range-topping model with a price of more than $70,000. The plug-in-hybrid powertrain is borrowed from the smaller NX450h+ and uses a four-cylinder engine and three electric motors to make 304 horsepower; all-wheel drive is standard. The RX carries over to 2024 with no other significant changes.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

The 2024 RX is offered with no fewer than four different powertrains, starting with the base RX350 model, which is powered by a 275-hp turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. That model comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive as standard, but all-wheel drive is an option. The hybrid RX350h pairs electric motors with a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine to make 246 horsepower and comes with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and all-wheel drive. On our first test drive, neither of these powertrains delivered notable performance, and we estimate both will deliver slightly slower acceleration than their 2022 analogues. Stepping up to the RX500h F Sport Performance unlocks a punchier powertrain. It combines the turbocharged 2.4-liter and electric power to make 367 horsepower and utilizes Lexus's Direct4 system to route that power to all four wheels.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The RX is offered exclusively as a two-row, five-seat SUV, which makes room above it for the new three-row TX. The RX's interior design is more modern than the last-generation model, with textured fabric sections on the upper door panels, rich-looking ambient lighting, and open-pore wood trim on RX350 models. The RX500h F Sport Performance features more heavily bolstered front seats, black interior trim, steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters, and aluminum pedals. Cargo space is generous behind the second-row seats, so there's plenty of space for a big load of groceries or several suitcases when road-tripping.

Everything is called Perfect. Nice job Lexus. I love the door opening style from inside, good upgrade. I only had a little problem with the seats, I think the leather on it is not that perfect comparing to the car.

Front reminds me of the movie "Aliens." Dont why, it just does.
