Used 2012 Lexus RX 450h Consumer Reviews
Great SUV for me
Kept five years Great car in every respect Only expense was brakes and tires in 100+ thousand miles
Lots of room for improvement by Lexus
Purchased this vehicle nine years ago hoping that it would be more luxurious and as reliable as my Lexus RX300 but unfortunately this vehicle has been a huge disappointment!! I have yet to achieve the claimed 30mpg even though I consistently use premium fuel. On average, I get about 23-25mpg city and 26-27mpg highway. I have already had to replace the rear struts and the hybrid traction battery on my vehicle even though I only have 133K miles!! The navigation and infotainment features have been outdated from day one and I consistently have issues with the bluetooth connection to my Android cellphone While the leather is soft, the interior still uses a lot of hard plastics and feel likes a cheap Toyota Camry interior. After test driving a Genesis GV80 recently, I would definitely consider buying a Genesis over a Lexus as my next vehicle. Lexus has definitely dropped the ball with this vehicle. You would be better off buying a Genesis GV80 over this vehicle!!

Initial impression
Very impressed with the RX450h. Excellent comfort and fun to drive. Takes a while to get familiar with all the capability but basic operation is easy and intuitive. Very good dealer service.
Disappointed mpg
I am very disappointed in our fuel economy. After 8500 miles we average 25.5 mpg. Suburban/rural Ohio mom running a 5 teen family. No special driving of any sort. Quite a bit different from the 29 combined mpg we were represented with. Not worth it.
