The Lexus RX is one of the best Lexus models ever produced. You regularly see first and second-generation Lexus RXes still driving around with hundreds of thousands of miles on them. 

With each new generation of the RX Lexus has brought in more luxury, but also more sport. Customers like vehicles that are comfortable but also have plenty of straight-line speed and cornering performance for daily use.

Hybrid Power

The new Lexus RX 500h F-Sport is absolutely the best one of them all. Thanks to the NiMH and two Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors, the 500h F Sport produces a total of 366 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque, while still achieving 27 mpg city and 28 mpg highway, respectively.

Usability & Performance

Even though you may not think of the Lexus RX 500h as a tow vehicle, it’s actually able to tow up to 3,500 lbs when properly equipped, and it can also get to 60 mph in less than 6 seconds.

What Is The Media Saying?

When The Detroit Bureau reviewed the 2023 Lexus RX 500h F Sport Performance, they said about its driving abilities, “The bigger surprise comes when it’s time to hustle this bus through the twisties. It’s there where it proves to be surprisingly adept, with better grip than you’d expect and minimal body lean. There’s also a lack of excessive body motions over bumps, a pleasant surprise given its ride comfort. Speaking of comfort, noise suppression is excellent.”
