This is a beautiful suv!! Lexus has definitely put out a quality vehicle. However it’s cargo space is limited and it’s overall back seat space is that as well. The new designed front grill is far superior to older models and was the selling point for me. I wish I could get better acceleration possibly more power from this engine but it’s not to say everything about this suv is quality.

My husband and I were stopped due to backed up traffic on the freeway. We got plowed into by a car traveling approx 60 mph pushing us into a large van. The impact was so hard the large van was pushed into the back of a diesel truck. All airbags deployed in our car pretty much I believe. We were both hurt but mostly severe bruising, cuts and soft tissue injuries. But we are alive! My car is totaled but will replace with another Lexus RX for sure.

Love it but fuel economy is not what they say

I have had a 2019 Lexus RX 450h for 2 1/2 years on lease. It's up next March and I'm trying to decide to either buy it or turn it in. Because of Covid, I only have 20K miles on it and will likely be much lower than the 30K limit when I turn it in. I love this car. I baby it! I'm just very frustrated with the lack of fuel economy that I get. It's advertised 28/31 and if I get 27, I'm LUCKY. I'm also concerned with owning it longterm and having to replace the battery eventually. I hear it's expensive. It's very comfortable and luxurious. Some things are a bit tricky, like turning on and off the a/c. It's not just a button. You have to navigate on the screen to find the a/c and then click on it. Kind of a pain. Decisions, decisions...

This is our second Lexus. It’s attractive, very comfortable and easy to drive. The hybrid gesture allows drive locally almost full time on the battery. My major concern is the plethora of features that serve to confuse rather than help. As the owner of 4 cars it would be much better if there was better organization of the features and a method of easily eliminating the ones I don’t want or need. Serious radio is an example. I don’t want it but it pops um in the mode key. After driving and enjoying it for almost a year, we read a review by Edmunds of the Toyota Rav 4 plug in hybrid and wish we had waited for it. With 42 miles all electric, most of our daily drives would be all electric, but with the comfort of no range anxiety for long trips between Texas and Minnesota. After driving the Rav 4, the comfort isn’t close to the Lexus so we will stay with Lexus UPDATE: Love the car. It is a great combination of AWD and hybrid power. We average 28-34 MPG. Its interior is smaller than others we’ve had. Like Grand cherokees, X-5, and Highlanders. I don’t like the plethora of electronics that pop up on the screen. Some are annoying and unexpected. Booking up a boat trailer and backing up results in a bone charting stop because the Smart Camera detected the trailer and breaked . Just one of many things you must learn work arounds. Problem is this car is one of 4 in our household and each has a different menu. And pushing the wrong button can inadvertently change the radio station, call 911, or reset the system. With 60,000 miles it’s been very dependable. Only expense was tires and filters. Did have a very poor service experience at Park Place Lexus in Grapevine TX. They performed a 4 wheel alignment I didn’t need.
