“The new Lexus RX is more efficient than ever, with much improved technology on board, but it comes up short in terms of practicality.”

Score: 8 / 10
“The Lexus RX takes a different approach to the premium SUV genre and it’s worth a look over the usual German offerings. With the 500h there’s plenty of impressive technology which is both the car’s strength and weakness, but there’s no arguing it feels like a quality product throughout.”

“Lexus’s large SUV offers plenty of luxury and tech, but it’s not as family-friendly as its size would suggest.”

Score: 7 / 10
“In what will likely be more affordable 350h self-charging hybrid form, the RX isn’t as refined or efficient as the 450h+ plug-in, but it gives access to the car’s easy-going attitude and more advanced tech.”

Score: 7 / 10
“The Lexus RX is a serene and comfortable cruiser with plenty of standard equipment. The regular hybrid version handles better than the plug-in, still gets decent economy and has a cheaper list price. However, it will be an issue for many that it’s barely any cheaper on a PCP, and rivals with slicker tech and more conventional powertrains might prove hard to resist.”

“The Lexus RX 450h+ is clearly a lot of money, but it’s considerably less than a comparable BMW X5, Mercedes GLE or Range Rover Sport, and it even undercuts the Volvo XC90 T8.”

“The Lexus RX is a perfectly recommendable luxury SUV. It’s comfortable, refined, efficient and it feels suitably expensive. However, it’s a bit one-dimensional – and there’s a growing expectation for cars in this class to do more than just one thing well.”

“The Lexus RX is a great luxury SUV. It’s comfortable, refined, efficient, spacious and it comes with loads of clever technology to keep you both entertained and safe on the road, although it’s not as well-rounded as the BMW X5 or the Land Rover Discovery Sport.”

“The RX scores well for its strong refinement, plush interior and punchy performance. Reliability will be a strong point, too, and the option of a regular hybrid is great for those without easy access to a charger.”
