The Lexus RX comes in two basic forms, RX 350 and RX 450h. The RX 350 is powered by a smooth 3.5L V6 engine, producing 295 horsepower. With this engine, 60 mph arrives in under 8 seconds, despite being rated at 28 mpg on the highway in front-wheel drive trim. The RX 450h combines a traditional gasoline engine with an electric motor for a total of 308 horsepower. Fuel economy jumps to 30 mpg on the highway for front-wheel drive versions. The only transmission available is an 8-speed automatic, while all-wheel drive is optional on either version of the RX.
Both the RX 350 and the RX 450h are available in F SPORT guise, further enhancing both the interior and exterior styling, while also tightening up the handling. Only available on all-wheel drive models, the F SPORT package adds an 8-inch LCD display instrument cluster, unique quilted seats, adjustable suspension, interior aluminum trim accents and drilled aluminum pedals. Outside, the F SPORT gets a blacked out grill, and exclusive 20-inch wheels

The Lexus RX gets a complete redesign for 2016. Styling is even sharper than before, highlighting Lexus' bold front end styling language and sharp angles. It is an immediately recognizable shape that won't be confused for anything else on the road. Inside, the Lexus RX gets a bigger rear cargo hold with an available power rear lift door that can be operated by waving a hand near the Lexus emblem.
The Lexus RX has the savvy ability to do it all. It's both luxurious and sporty, all while maintaining an air of practicality. Lexus made the choice to sell the RX with only two rows of seats. The upshot is that the interior of the Lexus RX feels cavernous, offering up the kind of rear seat legroom that's more commonly found in luxury cars. All this, despite still offering plenty of cargo space behind the rear seats. Engine options are powerful and smooth, while its ample ground clearance allows for light off road duty when needed. With a base price below $42,000, the Lexus RX competes with other SUVs on the market from luxury manufacturers like BMW, Audi and Mercedes-Benz.
