2023 Lexus RX350h - POV Review

The audio in this video was recorded with in-ear binaural microphones, headphones are highly recommended!

Here's the equipment I use (with affiliate links):

I'm also the producer for the Winding Road YouTube Channel:

Thanks for watching!

My RX 350h/Luxury finally arrived-loaded with all the options too. It’s Fabulous, can’t say enough good things about it!! Smooth as silk! Exactly what I was hoping for.

[luckgrah]

I will not drive another vehicle but the Rx. This is my 5th. Never had a problem, nor even a flat tire. I always drive the F.sport

[fuffthebucks]

the new rear end design is one of the best in the market right now

[aqibjaved]

This is the premium+ package. The luxury package has suede trim in the door panel, a slightly different seat design (with suede inserts) and more seat controls like 4-way lumber support .

I really like the video, the perspective view of Gopro is like I was driving the car. Real first hand experience. Great job!

[chrisrosen]

No more V6 engine is my biggest gripe with the newer model. My boss has the V6 says it’s a big difference. Also was not this expensive (maybe inflation effects this)

[erynnesutherland]

I love love Lexus RX350 H suvs and love the blue color on the exterior and interior a little fancy but simple too....My most favorite part of the suv is the front soooo pretty the headlights are sooo

[bradhaughton]

I can definitely see where he's coming from with the physical button on the wheel most people don't like the sensitive touch control anymore.

What a nice Rx hybrid ! New speedometer display screen and chime

[ARentz]

People love to hate on the "Toyota" cruise control stalk, but at least it doesn't take away from the usability of the buttons on the steering wheel like this new system.

Also, not sure I've ever driven a Lexus in recent years with the dimmer switch linked to both displays. You can adjust the brightness in the infotainment for both day and night modes independently. I did that _one time_ when my IS was new to me and have not touched it since.

That interior color combo looks much nicer than all black

[romaingallard]

Funny to hear, “that new RX is more refined” and then hear the buzzing sound of the 4 cylinder… I don’t think 4RX owners will rush to their dealerships for this new one!

[farmerlister]

Very nice POV setup. Well thought out. I drove 500h 3 days ago and the chassis is really convincing. Also the regular gearbox is sweet feeling. I have bought RX f sport 2022. My wife has the 2021 Luxury. So the only thing I observe as negative is the 4cylinder dron note. With the v6 the engine act similar but the tone is a different planet. It's a reason I have left RAV 4 and replaced it with my 450h F sport (I was envious every time I drove my wife car :-). Fuel efficiency of RX450h is some 5-7mpg worse than the new gen 350h. The only one I'd consider is 500h but then fuel economy is even worse than 450 h '22 and really, if I wanted a dynamic car I'd get X6 which is similar price like 500h - at least here in EU.

My favorite part of the video was when he said "It's Tophin' time" and then Tophered all over the road 👌 another awesome one from Chris

[juliomartinez]

Amazing car! My friend has the previous box and its great i cannot imagine this newer version

[luckgrah]

If you own it, you will learn it!! I have the Rx 500h, which is very nice.
And have a lot of adds on.
It also park itself

[banebones]

the fog outside matches the inside of the car very pretty very modern

[williamlong]

Lots of nice improvements overall, though I will say I wish they’d kept a V6 in some form, even if it was, say, a downsized 3.0L paired with a hybrid system. But I’m sure the powertrain synergies with the Highlander streamline production and save costs.

[adrianpamintuan]

Would’ve liked to see a panoramic glass roof for that price 😅

[jmen]

22 and down with the V6 will be a lot more reliable. Refined, smooth engine, it will last a lot longer.
