· As a Lexus, there are certain things that come standard—comfort, quality build, quietness, safety, and luxury. All of this has been incorporated into the RX, making it one of the best selling SUV’s. Lexus has come up with 3 variants of the RX—the RX270, RX350, and the RX450h(hybrid). What makes the exterior so striking is the bold face of the car, and Lexus’s L-fitness design. Xenon lights come as standard, along with an adaptive front lighting system (optional for RX270) for the exterior of the car. Open the driver’s door, and the instrument panel needles begin to glow warmly. Lexus pride themselves for superb leather quality; step into the RX and it all becomes quite clear. The steering wheel has a comfortable, yet sporty feel and design, and the seats support you nicely. There are a good number of cubbyholes in this SUV, along with the excellent LEXUS Premium Sound speakers (Mark Levinson speakers are optional), and the bits of wood that add to the luxury in Lexus. The center consol is simple to use, and thankfully sweeps towards the driver. At the rear, legroom is more than enough, so much so that legs can be crossed. The rear seats can be folded, making this car perfect for dog owners. For an extra luxury that few SUV’s offer, you get an electric boot that ensures clean hands for luxury driving (optional for RX270). Out on the road, wind and road noise are considerably less than competitors, especially with the speakers cranked up at low volume. Power is readily available, and is more than adequate to pull the RX forward, even with the RX270’s 4-cylinder engine. If you are a fan of road-trips, outdoor sports, and pets, look no further.
o Personal advice: Buy the RX350, as there are more features, along with a smoother and punchier engine.
