The smooth-riding, high-performing, and ultra comfortable Lexus RX has more than established itself as one of the premier picks for those looking for an exceptionally engineered small-family luxury SUV. The 2024 Lexus RX achieves the seemingly impossible by being even more refined in terms of style, performance, safety, and comfort.
Exceptional Ride Quality and Performance
They say that the ultimate mark of a master is being able to achieve extraordinary results without appearing to exert yourself, and this is certainly true for the RX. Coming with a 275-HP turbocharged 2.4-liter inline-four, the RX effortlessly bounds to 60 mph in just 7 seconds, all the while feeling like it's in cruise mode. And when you opt for the monstrous sport-tuned 366-HP RX500h, you get to 60 mph in a blistering 5 seconds, giving this beast the agility of a much smaller high-performance car.
Despite its ferocious nature when you slam the gas pedal, the RX has impeccable road manners thanks to the ingenious combination of a highly-responsive and communicative electronic rack-and-pinion steering system, a comfort-tuned MacPherson Strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension, and an available sport-tuned adaptive suspension. Together, these elements give the RX the driving dynamics and maneuverability of a smaller car while ensuring that you essentially glide over bumps for an incredibly smooth ride.
Next-Level Comfort
The Lexus RX goes above and beyond to create a calm and soothing interior atmosphere coming with several upscale amenities. The ambient lighting and leather-draped interior with available wood trim make for an exceedingly posh visual, while the heated and ventilated seats contour around your body, cradling you softly like a newborn. The three-zone climate control allows you to set different custom temperature zones inside the cabin, while the available 21-speaker Mark Levinson Surround Sound system provides an in-studio experience.
Moreover, the RX's cabin is cavernous, boasting 41 inches of legroom in the front and 37 inches in the back, allowing it to accommodate 5 adults comfortably. And with 30 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the rear seat - expandable to 46 inches with the rear seats folded down - the RX is a legit hauler.
Tons of Convenient Technologies
The Lexus RX features all sorts of high-end technologies to enhance its convenience. The standard driver-facing 9.8-inch infotainment touchscreen (14.1 inches in higher trims) offers Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, advanced voice command, available navigation, Bluetooth, HD Radio, satellite radio, Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, MID data sharing, and more to keep you connected.
These technologies also come in the way of safety systems such as adaptive cruise control, pre-collision avoidance, lane-departure mitigation, blind-spot monitoring, automatic high-beam headlights, and even a revolutionary Traffic-Jam assist system that handles the driving for you during low-speed traffic scenarios.
