Nearly all plusses, but a couple of minuses.

As usual, in the RX450hL Toyota has created a vehicle superbly designed and constructed. I have 6,000 miles on it without a single problem. MPG is right at 30. It is indeed a joy to drive. But, typical of Toyota, the info display is a bit funky. Customization of the home screen is more limited than before. In fact, it doesn't really have a "home" screen anymore. There's no "home" button to take you back to your pre-set preferences, and the display keeps wanting to revert to some factory default. Previously you could configure the screen to display almost any three sources simultaneously. Now it only allows two, and you are limited to just a few sources available as defaults. Also, I actually preferred the much-maligned mouse-type control on my 2018 RX350, as the touchpad on the 2022 model is pretty much useless. But the 2022 does add touchscreen capability. Overall, despite the info screen limitations, I would definitely buy again without hesitation.

Superior to my Bentley Azure and Rolls Royce cab

Our Lexus RX 450hL provides serene, secure cruising on every road trip. No break downs, no luxury car foibles, no antics, no English "craftmanship" no exorbitant service bills. Just Japanese craftmanship, reliability and attention to detail. Don't let me started on my English and Mercedes experiences... We are waiting for an EV that can beat our current Lexus.

Dependable luxury for your wife and kids. This was the 3rd Lexus I have owned. Great for the family but no performance. No turbos or superchargers in the line. Great second car but not my primary.

Slow as molasses

My dad just leased this yesterday. I drove it and was ready to cry afterwards. 0-60 in 7.9 seconds. It’s so slow. I don’t know why someone would pay for a car this slow. There are so many better options out there at this price point.

Poor Build Quality

This car has poor build quality, less than 700 miles and the side mirror breaks at a carwash. After looking at the mirror housing, its a cheap plastic that holds it together. Hopefully that will be the only issue in the near future. Really wished there were GLE\GLS or X5\X7 available to purchase before settling for a Lexus. The infotainment is awful, not very user friendly and perhaps the worst quality 360 camera of any car for the past 10 years. The Mark Levinson radio sounds good, the MPG is not as good as advertised but its nice getting at least 25mpg for such a heavy vehicle. Comfortable but boring and unenthusiastic ride quality. After previously owning a vehicle from the big 3 brands from Japan, I can confirm that Japanese reliability is a myth. The only reputation that’s true of them is the boring and uninspired ride quality.
