I still drive my 1999 Lexus RX300. Has about 290k miles now. Spent a lot to keep it running over the past decades. Had it since high school 😊.

I love your energy/vibe! I’m thinking of this one or the 500F... 👍💛

Found myself giggling at the commentary 😊 very informative video!

Just discovered your channel. Great review and you are absolutely right this will be a hit espy for the fuel economy for this vehicle size.

Love you guys. This channel is so underrated 💪

I have seen this in person, and it is a looker. Beautiful lines

It looks great in silver. Inside and out it hits the mark. Even engine transformation while may heart gearhead hearts, fits the mark for target audience. There is nothing else like it.

Can you comment on the suede seats? Are they comfortable? Do you think it will stay cool in the summer?

Balanced and honest review! I like the whole “it’s not the car for me but I understand and appreciate why Lexus did what they did” attitude. Keep up the great work!

Have had 5 RX (Current is 2021 AWD). Never had one in the shop other than for regular maintenance)

Looks good and Toyota it's been dialing on the hybrid tech for 2 decades. Now the challenge is finding out without an insane markup or "market adjustment" BS from the stealership.

Hey guys love the video. As a owner of a 22 rx 450h, the paddles are useless but I found them useful for engine braking. Going downhill on a snowy day to a stop, you don't want to ride the brakes. So let it cruise downhill with the paddles in use for the engine braking.

Never have I thought I'd own a Lexus RX being on the sporty side for so long. But I did and I can't wait for it to arrive. So quiet and soft, and so slow lol. Perfect daily for family.

Would you guys say the Nx350h which basically has the same powertrain/layout would be more willing to make turns compared to this?

Hi, from Japan!! I’m interested in the sound enhanced paddles. Ha ha. My opinion is same as yours. I don’t buy it but I’m impressed. If I can afford to have two cars, I’d add it on my list of family car. By the way, it seems seamless grill has been adapting by Japanese car manufacturers nowadays.

Lexus. I don't love em but i respect the HELL out of them. My rx350h is SUPER well-engineered and fuel efficient.

Own a 2010 rx for the past 6 (wow six years already). Best car ever, been thinking about buying a new rx In 2-3 years (gonna let the current one at least hit 150k bc it’s just hitting the 110k mark). Anyways Lexus always wins

The predator design is amazing

As far as styling, I guess I prefer Cylons to Predators. Great review!

How about detailing that fuzzy macadamia and keeping it clean?

The team approach to reviewing this vehicle is a fresh approach, more conversational.

Is lexus rx better than GLE and X5?

and the price of a hybrid in comparison to the non hybrid. 350h v 350. RX 350 Hybrid starting price $49,000. RX 350h Luxury AWD regular %57,000. 2001 RX 300 Monroney price $40,000! Not bad for 20 years and a lot more TECH. Steering wheel looks like Black Open Pore v Ash Bamboo. Pre production model?

I enjoyed the video but was really hoping you were in Hawaii

Sounds like a super commercial

Bro cocaine mirror!! That was a classic call-out!! I'm looking to get this as a family car for my wife and kids. I'm feeling like the H is actually worth it.

Prizes for whoever hacks the vehicle voice response "By your command" like the 70s Battle Star Gallactica.

I had a Corolla that got 33 MPG overall. I entered my gas and miles for one year. This large car beats it. You can have your cake and eat it too. It's expensive for the looks though. I like last years 450hl better.

The door handles and HUD are annoying. Otherwise, great 🚗. 👍

I ended up purchasing a 23 GV70 sport prestige for 65K out the door and its an incredible vehicle very happy with its luxury and performance .

Great vid. QUESTION: I understand if you press the door handle twice, it will open mechanically, which makes sense. HOWEVER, if there's an accident, passengers can't open door and electricals are gone, is there a way for the emergency crew to open the door? Cuz if they can't, that is a MAJOR safety issue. Dealbreaker actually...none of this ridiculous form over function cuz there was NOTHING wrong with pulling a latch to open a door..

The Beluga 350

Weirdly proportioned...the front end overhang is ENORMOUS. Maybe it's always been that way but this redesign seems to magnify it. But, the mpg (h model) is a huge point in its favor, esp vs the guzzling RDX.

at 18:04 "All the Power" sounds like a Hoover vacuum picking up some crumbs off of my sofa...man, at least add some simulated gears. Sounds atrocious, but hey, I'm sure the ride is nice...

Hmmmm, the Venza comes to mind.

Well what if the battery explodes?!!!

It lacks a tuning knob.

Are these made in Japan?

One of the best looking and distinctive midsize SUVs on the road for sure! So glad Lexus decided to discontinue the mini-van like 3 rows! While other manufacturers are stupidly spinning their tails following each other trying to outdo with overkill horsepower while ignoring the fact of the environmental impact, Lexus has shown a continued commitment to a less is more approach with sustainable materials and quality reliability. Even though this is not the type of car that so-called car experts wax poetic about when it comes to prowess, its so refreshing to see you guys are mature enough to appreciate the mission of this vehicle. Great job once again guys!

Did you eat your history books? For Pete's sake, the shape of the front end is an evolution of the SPINDLE GRILL, a firm nod to the origins of the company when they made WEAVING LOOMS. Their culture keeps the memory of ancestors in mind, unlike ours with its "what have you done for me lately" mindset.

The Mazda CX-70 and CX-90 is going to slaughter luxury SUV competitors they basically copied a BMW X5 with a straight six engine and 8 speed automatic for 30% less.The new Mazda 3.3L straight six diesel on the CX-60 in Europe (same as CX-70) gets 60mpg! Lexus needs to make their SUVs the same 3L straight six with 8speed automatic standard. 4cylinders make too much noise bc they lack torque over higher displacement.

RX deserve the real F model to compete with GLE AMG, BMW M competition.

that cocaine mirror in the NX is actually bloody useful for checking on your kids in the back. Biggest issue with the new RX is the lack of power and driving dynamics, bring back the V6!

Lexus good. But rx is expensive 😢

Yeah Mercedes-Benz is putting four bangers in their upper line cars now as well in five years my friend it’s going to be in nearly everything or electric you can forget your V-8 stuff and V6 this is the New World order sir

YO, you ruin it by calling it an egg!

4 cyl for 66 grand.. thats funny. And cvt ??

Interior design was still out of date, which is desperately needed to catch up with its competitors. Unfortunately, yet to happen. Disappointing!

Lexus is definitely trying to make a statement with that ugly front grille.

Just stopped by to give a "like" and comment as I know you do the best you can with what's new but...no thanks!

cocaine mirror!!!

That rough and noisy four banger I constantly hear in the background is annoying

Not styling I like. Odd overly styled

ugly...😢

No thanks, I’ll keep my 23’ NX350H

You really wasted your time. The new RX is one of the worst buys in the segment. Basing it off an economy car platform and dressing it up with lipstick and mascara doesn’t make it luxury. Combined with a mediocre interior, ugly exterior, cramped back seats, lackluster powertrains, pathetic performance and handling, lack of luxury features, gimmicky tech, comfort that isn’t better than others, refinement isn’t better than others, and it gets very expensive. Who cares about fuel economy? It’s a luxury car… 🤦‍♂️. You care about fuel economy? DONT BUY A LUXURY CAR. 😂 If you can afford a luxury car, you most certainly can afford the low fuel economy. Do you see x5 or gv80 or trackhawk owners whining about fuel economy like it’s the end of the world? No you don’t. Because it doesn’t matter. Do value about fuel economy as a luxury feature? Then the Prius and Camry hybrid are as luxurious as you can get. Plain and simple. The gv80 MDX aviator grand Cherokee summit x5 GLE Q7 xc90 telluride palisade Santa Fe calligraphy sorento prestige all rank much higher than this. Those are ACTUALLY competitive unlike this RX and it really shows both inside outside and behind the wheel. Even as I hate to admit this, I’d also rank the Cadillac xt6 and Infiniti qx60 as better options than the RX

Lexus new design look hideous..Except the LC500

beautiful car. The sloths calling this ugly must have grotesque taste, probably drink bud light too and vote democrat. This vehicle looks great and masculine

Yeah Mercedes-Benz is putting four bangers in their upper line cars now as well in five years my friend it’s going to be in nearly everything or electric you can forget your V-8 stuff and V6 this is the New World order sir
