I love the way these new Lexus models look. Lexus kills it with design.

Love your channel. Could you please do an offroad review of this? I know most don't look in the luxury segment for that but the fact is, it is an SUV, so there are a lot of folks like me who are doing mostly street driving but run to the mountains for skiing and mountain biking and camping whenever we get the chance. Finding the right balance is tough but your videos help. Thanks!

Best car reviews on YouTube! Great video as always! The level of quality would make you think it's a full budget TV show. Keep it up Ryan

[andyburnett]

I've watched numerous reviews of this car and your review is without doubt the best, new subscriber here 👍😀

[BlameGamerOfficial]

Ryan, great video and I'm glad you mentioned what a titan this car is in its category. I'm also glad you didn't stuff this video with those annoying marketing presentations.

Finally a car reviewer who talks about the Direct 4 system. Thx

Purchased the same as the test model down to the color and got the heat/vent power rear seats with the kick open rear door. The list was 70, 550 on mine. They had other ones from regular to hybrids. Looked at a GLE350 and GLE450 prior to visiting Lexus. 450 was its closest competition, and with similar options was 17, 370 more. Originally planned on looking at the 350 or 350 h luxury but asked to drive the 500h just to see if it had no turbo lag like a lot of reviewers said. I'm glad I did and bought it that night. When making the appointment to go see it, they had 15 or 17 in stock in all different powertrains and trim levels. When I arrived, they had sold 4 or 5 that day, and 3 of them were waiting to be picked up. Including the dark blue I really wanted to look at when getting to the dealer. When picking mine up, another 4, including mine, all cleaned up, waiting to go home. Paid cash for mine and wasn't hit with any adjustments at all. They don't discount hybrids, but a ton of dealers markup them since they're popular.

It looks very cool.
I think at the entry level in lower trims the pricing will offer superior value in the luxury suv segment against the x3 and glc.
I feel the only legit competition from a value for $ standpoint is the mdx and gensis. I think this new lexus interior and tech wins it.

Was super excited about getting this car. Less than 4000 miles and it's in the shop needing a new transmission. Looking online it appears to be a common issue with the car sadly.

I don’t really see myself buying a Lexus — just not the right function/cost tradeoff for me, as I apparently don’t prioritize luxury very highly — but I do appreciate the video. I am especially grateful for your enhancements to coverage of adaptive cruise control…keep up the great work!

[ghostindamachine]

Great review! I like the new design language, exterior and interior. And that color is also very nice. It has something special.

[도시개미]

I still drive 14 Rx350 and it’s so good.

[joshuamoore]

How’s the suspension? Ride comfort is incredibly important for me. I’m getting rid of my Tesla MYP because of the poor ride.

[kendallhughes]

Very cool color- this color is gonna sell like hot

[carlostavaresjr]

Nice. What are the tow numbers? Believe it or not I see these towing light utility trailers and i was curious on tow numbers. I am a younger driver and prefer less electronics honestly. I'm an engineer in IT and electronics expire quick and for me who loves electronics, having less is more as you get older.

[chenwilbur]

How does RX500H compare with Acura MDX Type S? Which one would you get?

[Doc]

Great review Ryan !
We love our Subie’s, but just last night I was talking with my wife about saving up so that when my 2011 Rav 4WD Limited with a 3.5 V6 wears out, I’d like to replace it with a Lexus.
I don’t want a turbo but a hybrid is a must.
We live in the mountains outside of Cashmere and get 4-5 feet of snow every winter. My wife’s Outback is actually better in the snow than my Rav.
For a Subaru Forester Touring is $39K and a Lexus NX hybrid AWD is $40-42K. So I told my wife that I’ll start saving $600 a month so I can pay cash for a new Lexus.
We normally keep our vehicles for 15-20 years, so by the time I buy my next vehicle, my wife will be driving it after I’m dead and gone.
Keep your great videos coming. I look forward to watching them.

Ryan, Thanks for the cautionary note on the benefits of sidewall. When is this oversized rims craze finally going to end? 🤔
