The RX350h is definitely the pick of the line-up. The 2.5 hybrid is adequately speedy, provides excellent fuel economy, and has already been proven to be reliable. I believe this trim perfectly encapsulates the RX's mission of a being no-nonsense, comfortable cruiser.
This is my third RX in a row…..by far their best edition. My 2023 rx350h is superb. Plenty of zip, mileage is way up now. Seats are terrific, ambient lighting, great screen and very intuitive.

I watched the 500h video and realized that what I really want is a luxury ride. I'm so glad you posted this video because it appears this just might be the car I've been looking for..and after a year of looking at cars, it's a relief! I have a couple questions for you.. (1) If smaller wheels give a smoother ride, then why would Lexus put them in the lesser priced packages and not the higher? Don't you want a smoother ride with the 350h since it's about luxury and comfort? (2) How is the glare on that 14" screen? I never looked at the RX before..but now this baby has caught my eye! Let's see if I can get my hands on one next year! The 350h Luxury model looks perfect for me! BTW..you just gave the 'California Stop' a whole new meaning!😆 Stay safe out there and thank you for your reviews and all the NEW Lexus RX info you've been pumping out!
I think that the large wheel thing is a fad (that hopefully starts reversing itself soon) so Lexus needs to compete in that department. Although having a short sidewall means less sidewall flex and potentially better handling. The engineers can compensate for the big wheels and short sidewall heights by changing spring and shock rates, increasing suspension travel, adding adaptive dampers (and other things likely beyond my knowledge level) but a giant pothole can break a rim, there's only so much you can do (with suspension design) when dealing with such short sidewall tires. Maybe, just maybe, those vehicles that read the road ahead might be able to adapt the shocks before hitting the pot hole and thereby not breaking a rim. Maybe.
if preorder opens in October, and you place an order right away, I guess you should expect a delivery at least 8-12 months from then. I have been waiting for my nx350h for 7 months now and no update yet.
@@chezzyperson3339 Ah, yeah, I knew Lexus has been slow on the tech updates. Was almost wondering whether this new one was the first 😄. Love its new screen.
Kirk, Great review. Just one question. I read a September, 2022 review by Motor Trend. The review had the following comment: "Unless you constantly drive the 2023 Lexus RX350h while wearing thick-soled boots, the biggest dynamic issue with the new SUV doesn't require fast driving to notice. In two examples we drove, the accelerator and brake pedal transmitted more feedback than we'd like. While certainly not a deal-breaker, it was far more pronounced in the RX 350h hybrid than in the RX 350, RX 500h hybrid, or RX 450h plug-in hybrid we drove on the same day." Can you please comment on this? Did you notice this excessive feedback with the accelerator and brake pedals?
Just put down a deposit for the rx350h premium plus model. Can't decide between copper crest(looks like rose gold) or iridium(silver) color exterior. Choosing black interior for classy and clean look
Hey Kirk. Thanks again! This one is also on my list to try. More than likely I think we will be purchasing a Lexus RX over Genesis GV just because of the drive, price & longevity. What are your thoughts?
I was close to pulling the trigger on the RX but went with the GV70 instead for the technology, looks interior and price. The 2.5T is $10,000 less than the Lexus in Canada. I'm not disappointed!
Do you know if it requires premium gas? I have 2019 RX 350 which uses regular gas. If the new 350 h can use unleaded regular gas, I may switch. My 350 uses 13.2litters for 100km.
Hope the steering is tighter. I tested the 2022 RX and I’m not used to such a light steering wheel. I like my 2017 LS460 F Sport steering. So maybe for RX, the F Sport is needed.
Kirk, great review, and really on point for me. I own a 22 RX 350L, which I love for its quietness, smooth ride, and awesome Levinson audio. For my next vehicle, I was leaning towards the 500h, but the qualities you emphasize--ride and silence--are crucial to me. And the normally aspirated 4 with a hybrid system is potentially highly reliable. Though I don't know what batteries will do to long-term reliability and resale. I didn't expect the 350h to be so smooth. Thanks again.
I just placed an order for a 350h in Pearl white with the “ultra” package (the one just below the executive). Ordered it sight unseen and price unknown but I suspect it’ll be more than acceptable once I see it and drive it. Can’t wait! ….. Edit 2 months later . So disappointed in the car when I saw it and drove it. Uncomfortable and very noisy when I stepped on it not to mention the mind boggling controls. I got my refund back and glad to have at least try it.
Any idea if changing rims from 21" to 17 or 18" rims mess with suspension calibration? Because the first thing I'd do if I bought an RX with 21" rims and tires is to sell the tires/rims and buy new ones. Certainly one thing to be sure of is that the new tires are about the same diameter so that the speedometer indicates correctly.
I skipped the Luxury package on my 22 RX for the same reason--to get stock 18" wheels instead of 20". The 23 21" rim/tire combination has the same diameter as my 22 18" wheels. I see nothing indicating they wouldn't be a direct swap. So if I get a 350h, I'll try swapping wheels, and keep the set I prefer.
What about the stereo sound quality and the comfort level of the seat? I don’t care about the stitching and dashboard, just want to know how the seat feels.
I've been looking at the colors for the rx350H. From videos I've seen, it appears the blue color is a lighter shade of blue, almost royal. In previous years, the blue was "midnight mica" (I think), and that was closer to a navy blue. Do you know if the rx350H 2023 comes in a new lighter blue or navy?
Went to a dealership 2 days ago. Can cofirm the blue is very dark almost black under certain light - didnt see it in the sun. Its a really beautiful blue.
Hey Kirk, having driven both the NX350h and the RX350h, what do you think about performance and power on both, particularly the RX? DOes the increased weight translate into a bit of lag? BTW, I loved your NX review; one of the reasons why I have a Grecian Water NX350h sitting in my driveway! 😜
I don’t think 21 inch tires are a good idea for places that have tough winters. I would go with the 19 inch wheels as there is a better selection of tires as well.
I tried to order a 2023 RX350h. You can not order that vehicle from the factory. There is no factory ordering. All you can do is tell the dealer what you are hoping for and they then search the current built vehicle database to see how close they can get to what you want. For a $60K vehicle that seems dumb to me. The dealer has my deposit and I will give them a month or so to see what they can do but I am still researching vehicles.
Compared to the Midsize Premium SUV segment, Lexus owners are more often women, are older, and enjoy a lower median annual household income. J.D. Power data shows that 42% of Lexus RX owners are female (vs. 38% for the segment), that their median age is 65 (vs. 58 for the segment), and that their median annual household income is $155,303 (vs. $184,248 for the segment).
I really wish the Rx500 could've been equipped with their V8. I would loved a mean sounding RX with that styling. The 4 cylinder on their performance model is disappointing sound wise.
@@Azul36550 i answered you in my comment itself . Again .rx never had a v8 and its fwd based so v8 is not possible .rx is a not huge vehicle so these engines are more than powerfull enough .remember rx500h has more power than the mdx type s .lol. just less than gv80 lol.
Question, is the all new RX350 14” center screen black and white lcd or color screen? Looking at other rivals-GLE350, BMW X5 and Audi, their center screens looks more like OLED screen. Very crisp and clean and tastefully colorful. The RX screen looks very cheap to me. Almost as if it’s some kids iPad. 🤔🤷🏾
Would be great to go over buying options. My wife and I dropped by our Lexus dealership to inquire about the 2023 models. They have very little information on availability, pricing etc.
I'm shocked they've removed the drive mode selector, huge mistake that, probably one of the most used knobs in both our Lexi. And why is it in the NX and but the RX, typically strange decision making from Lexus. Too many deal breakers in this RX!
Always loved the "Shrek ears" drive mode adjustment in the UX, ES, LS, and LC. Thought they looked cool and those were significantly more intuitive than on-screen controls 😀
Big mistake. The V6 Rx350 was the best ever made. This may be ok in the beginning but won't last yrs on the road. When the battery goes bad. It will not be covered. At that time the warranty has already expired and it will cost you a fortune. And running an electric companions that's going to be questionable not a good idea at all
I sat in both at the dealer last week. the RX is wider with more leg and shoulder room. Interior material has seems better in the RX. The price differences similarly spec is around $10K.
Lexus paid for flights and hotels for auto journalists from all over the world to review the new RX in southern California. Most auto manufactures do the same. Up to you to interpret how important that is.
The problem with this car is thr extra long wheel base. I own the 2017.... can't imagine maneuvering the newer RX with an even longer wheel base. Great if you're sailing down the highway, crap driving around town.
Honestly, you sound like Toyota is paying you for this gig; the hyperbole is strong in this one. The engine(s) configuration is way noisier than previous 450h V6 hybrid, for one. The acceleration way poorer as the torque values are diminished. The design is getting dated. And yes, if I pay that kind of $$$ I expect the car this size/weight to do better from standstill to 100. This is the definition of old lady's car.
The RX350h is definitely the pick of the line-up. The 2.5 hybrid is adequately speedy, provides excellent fuel economy, and has already been proven to be reliable. I believe this trim perfectly encapsulates the RX's mission of a being no-nonsense, comfortable cruiser.

Both. It's the usual A25A
I know these are pre-production, but it's still funny to see that the wood in the steering wheel doesn't match the other bamboo wood.
Is it true that Lexus don’t offer the Mark Levinson Audio system on the RX350h?
