Great SUV, but......
I have wanted a Lexus for a very long time. I have had many new vehicles over the last few decades - Celica, Sentra, Pathfinder GMC Yukon Denali, BMW 540, Chrysler 300 SRT, Camry, Corvette Stingray, RAM 3500 and Highlander. Luckily, all of those were solid and problem free. Hoping the same for this 2024 Lexus RX 350. So far, the good: Fit and finish, ride comfort and handling, design (interior and exterior). Needs work: Lack of 2 key fobs on delivery (safety issue) Must pay subscription fee (after trial) for navigation and connect services. No card key Glitchy "digital key," another safety issue, must pay for subscription after trial Preferred stand alone options difficult to find (e.g. Mark Levinson Audio System, AWD gas only versions) Not total show stoppers, but did not meet all expectations given the Lexus luxury brand reputation.

Absolutely love my Lexus
Beautiful pearl white and So much technology. I’ve had it almost 6 months now. Luxurious interior and the motor is so quiet I hardly know it’s running. I was a little worried that it wouldn’t have enough power but it’s more than enough. I thought about the Rx500h but I really have a lead foot! This Rx350h has plenty of power and I’m pleased with the gas mileage. This was my first Lexus and I would definitely buy another in the future.

Drives like a dream, comfortable and well built
I had this car for a couple weeks now and I'm loving it. This is my first "luxury" car I've owned and it's a huge difference. From the cushy interior and lots of features to the sales process. Everything was comfortable. I'm loving the driving it. It's my first automatic car I've owned, and it just glides down the road. My only small complaint it that boy it has a ton of features that require a steep learning curve. I'm glad I bought the 450h+ since it only comes with luxury package and has everything I wanted without me having to play games with dealer on configuring a bunch of options. Update: I’m still loving this car. It’s a dream to drive but my one issue is that I wished it had more EV range (maybe 70 miles) and was fast charger compatible. The advertised range is 40 miles but I never had more than 35 and that seems to be going down. Regardless I rarely do much more than that during the week except on Saturday when I drive 35 miles out to play golf. The EV gets me most of the way there but all gas on way back. No charger at course. Not sure why EV range has been dwindling by a mile or two. Need to ask dealer. I don’t have a charger at home and charge it once a week a couple blocks away and it takes about 2 1/2 hours and costs about $5 which is acceptable. If it were a full EV, I’d probably charge at home. But so far no other complaints accept for maybe the over zealous collision avoidance system. Driving down into my garage can be a little unnerving with all pinging.

Luxurious..Smooth and Refined
I traded a 2022 NX450h+ in on this RX450h+. I was questioning if the price difference was worth the swap into the RX plug-in and I can say with certainty most definitely. Where the NX was nice it just seemed to be missing some of the luxury touches Lexus is known for. The RX plug-in goes a step above and is way more refined than the NX. So far I’m very happy and the EV range pretty much or closely matches the NX’s. Longer trips are better in the RX as well. The overall experience I wanted in the NX, but never got until I swapped into the RX.

Interior rattle noise
My new ‘24 RX350 has a rattle noise when driving it….. all the time. I noticed it the 2nd day after I took ownership of it. It’s now 2 weeks old. I took it back and after 3 days in service they told me the the noise was gone. Not! I picked it up and drove it about 100 ft and heard the noise. I turned right around and said it still makes noise. The service advisor said to just turn up the radio so I couldn’t hear the noise. I now have Lexus Corporate office looking into the situation. This was not what I expected from Lexus.
