I have 2019 RX 350 and I love it so much, very comfortable. never have a problem with that. Great car with good price. I would definitely like to change it with the Hybrid soon.
Couple more details. The front seats lay down nearly flat, certainly comfortable enough for occasional overnight camping or road trips 💤😴. Also it will hold 2x4x10s. No joke! A winner all around 👏
Great video. I wanted the RX Hybrid, but it was the height of the Pandemic and I just wanted to get out of the dealership!!! I replaced my beloved 2017 ES 300h in Nebula Grey Pearl with a new 2020 RX 350 AWD in Caviar with 20' wheels. It's AWESOME. Lexus vehicles are just insanely comfortable and they practically eliminate driving stress. As long as you leave enough time to get where you're going, you can just relax the whole way there. That wood trim IS real by the way.
Finally some knowledgable review not like this car has two head lights and these air con vents comes in chrome finish Dude i didnt came out of a cave and not listening to u on radio
She was so happy, however I have bought her a LX brand new before and now she said this wasn’t luxurious enough. She wants LX570....ooops, I’m broken 😞
Can you explain the point of the paddle shifters on the 450h F Sport? Do they work being that its a CVT system? None of the sales people I have asked can answer me. Thanks!
i use them ONLY for engine braking when going a long decline to safe brake pads. But my old one did´nt have paddles it uses the shifter. In the new you can use the shifter or the paddles. I think they were just left from the normal RX350 and they decided to use the same steering wheel or column to reduce parts, makes total sense !
Not the most exciting SUV but reliability is key. Going to replace my older Volvo XC90 V8 this year so may go for the RX450h. I do like the new Volvo XC90 T6 but with both a supercharger and turbo in the small 4 cylinder engine, not sure it will be as reliable. I do also like the BMW X5 and the 2020 Land Rover Defender but I fear reliability in going to be a huge issue with Land Rover. Just wish Lexus would make a LH500 type SUV, test drove the LH500 last summer and really loved it. RX450h I also test drove and it feels a bit sluggish. So what in your opinion would be the best buy if you are looking for a SUV that is both reliable and has good performance and under USD80,000?
Honestly... I’m a huge fan of the Hyundai Palisade at $48,000. For the price it has an incredible feature set. Check our reviews playlist for it. The GV80 will most likely come out in the next couple of years in the US. And that would aggressively compete with the other brands you’ve mentioned. -Hansen.
@@ShiftingLanes Forgot to say that I currently reside in Europe and the Hyundai offerings is very limited to smaller cars and the only US SUVs available would be from Jeep and Cadillac.
Should I lease a 2022 RX 450h for $499 with $3999 down and possibly buy it at the end of lease if we like it or should I buy a 2018 RX 450h for $38999 with 51k miles LOADED with panoramic sunroof etc, etc..???
(1) Not much difference between the RX years. (2) These cars are extremely reliable, so not much worry in buying an older model. (3) The Lessor is in business to make money off you. Just buy a car.
i have this model from 2010 now with 260000km.....first battery; nothing wrong so far. bought it with 200000 ! you cant go wrong with a well mantained one.
more sporty is the X5 but this have all the rest ;-) i´m still happy with my old version of this but will definately buy the next used RX in a few years.
ok, lets be real with the wood, the wood Lexus use is thinner than a sheet of paper, its real wood, I saw samples in Tokyo's Lexus restaurant (one in NY now). Its really just plastic covered with a super thin sheet of wood.
Very honest review about the outdated interior. Compared to the European competitors, most have switched to all digital displays. This is the main reason why I am holding off from purchasing. Can't justify paying for something that was designed 5 years ago.
i drove these huge digital shit ! In summer or a some angles of lightning or sun i always! had problems with reading or seeing at all my gauges !! My old RX450H from 2010 is still my favourite because its black at back and white big clear readable gauges ....After driving these digital shitboxes i was very happy to be back in good old analog
Adam Wanly Well, you do have a great point but remember, Lexus is a brand that stick with, if ain’t broke, don’t fix it. While the Euro counter part offers a better interior/infotainment system, give it 5 years (maybe even less) and most likely it’s money pit. Not all but most 👍👍👍
Again, waiting on updates to the old reliable RX. Had both Mercedes and BMW in the past 20 years and they are crap (the car horror stories I can tell you all...try $3000 to fix 1 broken led light bulb in the SL550 headlight assembly...) before recently switching to Lexus. Already have the 2020 ES350 with digital display. Just waiting for the updated RX design to fall in line with the most modern design direction of the LS, LC, and ES. Money is not the issue. It's the updated design and reliability we want.
Sinbat, I think and this is my theory that, Lexus is aware that these Germans are crap in the long run so it thinks it can afford to sit on its laurels as they know people will still but their products. I really hope that at least one German brand car becomes so reliable as well that it’ll force Lexus to turn things up another notch 👍👍👍

You explanation on the E CVT was best! Thank you much.
Good information and presentation 👍 enjoyed your vid
Glad it was helpful!

The 350 is a fuel guzzler. Hybrid is the one to get
@FilmScape4K if you are concerned about fuel mileage, then this car is not for you.
Thank you for taking the time to explain the hybrid system.
Useful information here, thanks a lot👍🙂
Finally some knowledgable review not like this car has two head lights and these air con vents comes in chrome finish
Dude i didnt came out of a cave and not listening to u on radio
Thank you for that! I hope you stick around to watch our other reviews and consumer info
Looking to get a 450h L in summer. Cant wait. They look awesome and hope the MPG is good due to it being hybrid
me too 👍
450H- L are made in 🇯🇵 Japan
@@jpdoc5722 i did not get one. Too easily stolen here in UK and insurance is over £3,000
Thanks to this video, I learned that this car’s CVT is different from the traditional CVT.
indeed all Toyota Hybrid cvt are different because they are planetary gear boxes.
Great car the RX, you can't go wrong with it! I enjoy mine!
Thanks for the great video. I live in the same part of NJ as you and also drive the same roads I see you are driving.
What’s a fair price for this particular model after rebates if any going on now? I’m wanting to buy one for my wife as a thanksgiving gift.
did you get one?
@@RevLexus yeah, bought RX450h 2020 F sport in last November.
She was so happy, however I have bought her a LX brand new before and now she said this wasn’t luxurious enough. She wants LX570....ooops, I’m broken 😞
@@robertle9526 I see, I have never been in a LX :(
The lx interior is not luxury at all, but its nice for a family hauler, thats why I got my wife the Bentley Bentayga
Not enough good reasons for m to trade in our (paid for 😊) RX450h… just turned 100k.

Where can I find out where it was built, ie in Japan or US?
I love this car and this particular Model RX👍
The RX looks soo good! I also have lexus vids if you want to see them?
Nice review
Hi Shohan, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I've made a few including the RX. If you have time feel free to check it out and let me know :)
Yeah The Car it Beautiful/Excellent/Wonderful,
Thanks so much

The Defender is cool, did you see the channel 'fast lane car'. Those guys went through 3 Defender models within a few months as they kept breaking :/
Thank you ,however I am looking to buy 2010 Lexus Rx 450h with low miles , any advise on that will appreciate.
I have some RX videos that might help with common issues etc
Bought a 2010 RX450H with abt 80.000 miles. She looks and feels like new. These are built to last for sure! Go for it!
@@Plutonas78 sweet
Nice review but I was waiting for the fuel mpg but was disappointed to not get it. I guess you assume that we already know. But good job.
Mileage at 8:16
I love this
me too

Do they have a 2022 RX 450HL Full option?
Thank you for info! 🌹
How reliable is this car long term? Lexus IS known for that but not sure on the hybrid side.
i have this model from 2010 now with 260000km.....first battery; nothing wrong so far. bought it with 200000 ! you cant go wrong with a well mantained one.
get one that has been looked after! I have a 2014 IS 300h and its going strong (gets an annual inspection at Lexus)
The Lexus RX has been the BEST selling SUV since 1999 when it first came out......
Good thanks
Is short journeys bad for these cars?
Is it reliable?
Lexus...solid as rock
What color is this?
Color code
Watching this review while after buying the car for two years. Don’t now why.
Lexus need to get rid of the CVT if they want to increase sales.
Total bs about leather not being long lasting 😂!!! Leather is and will be the best option!!!
7.7 second actually and 0-100km, so for mile even less
7,8 sec 0-100 for a 3500motor why toyota came make it faster
This or BMW X5 2020
more sporty is the X5 but this have all the rest ;-) i´m still happy with my old version of this but will definately buy the next used RX in a few years.
Lexus if buying but the BMW isn't a bad lease
You need a better mic, sounds muffled.
ok, lets be real with the wood, the wood Lexus use is thinner than a sheet of paper, its real wood, I saw samples in Tokyo's Lexus restaurant (one in NY now). Its really just plastic covered with a super thin sheet of wood.
I would guess a solid piece of wood could shrink and crack eventually, but not a veneer with a stable backing. IOW it's a good thing.
@Frost Bite no
@@richardiredale3128 its thinner than paper i think
Mid size? I thought it was huge

Well, sometimes outdated means classic. And for me, I can’t justify paying for something up to date and all digital but aesthetically ugly as hell!

big phone, xr, r u sure? a man with lexus and xr?
Magic electric pixies
That about sums it up
you need to work on your photograph; most of the backgrounds have too much light, which makes watching your video very difficult.
To be honest better Tesla nobody i see who makes good hybrid😀
Too much background light. C'mon man!
