The Latest Features and Design of The All-New 2023 Lexus RX

The latest generation of the Lexus RX may have first debuted in 2016, but the newly launched 2023 version takes elegance and sophistication to a new level of excellence. Faster, more powerful, and with styling refinements that take it to the top of the luxury class, the 2023 Lexus RX range offers everything you could wish for in a luxury SUV. The fifth-generation RX range delivers the Lexus Driving Signature in their own unique and individual ways, appealing to a wide range of drivers.

In the UAE, drivers can experience the original petrol version of the RX 350, providing dynamic driving, comfort, and luxury. The RX 350 Hybrid delivers outstanding efficiency, comfort, and a beguiling interior. The impressive RX 500h F SPORT PERFORMANCE is a remarkable combination that delivers exceptional performance and is the Lexus first-ever turbo hybrid electrified powertrain vehicle.

The aim is to increase the hybrid options for a more discerning market and to work towards a carbon-neutral society with greater efficiency but a steadfast refusal to compromise on quality or luxury. With the RX range, Lexus has achieved just that, and the brand is on-track to achieve a full line-up of electrified vehicles in all categories by 2030, aiming to sell 100% BEVs globally by 2035.

The RX range

The RX 350 has the power of a 2.4Ltr turbocharged engine paired to an automatic 8-speed transmission. This technologically-advanced combination produces around 275hp and 430Nm of torque, giving it added stability and sure-footedness on uneven terrain at low speeds.

The RX 350 Hybrid version has a 2.5Ltr engine paired with a CVT transmission and electric motor for smooth, rapid power delivery. The electronically-controlled continuously variable transmission (E-CVT) provides a fuel consumption value of 20.7 km/L. It produces an impressive 246hp and 316Nm of torque making both the RX 350 and the RX 350 Hybrid great city cars.

The RX 500h F SPORT PERFORMANCE represents the very best of the RX collection, and has the privilege of being Lexus’ first ever turbocharged hybrid electric vehicle too. This is setting a new standard of technological innovation by combining the power of a turbocharged engine with a hybrid system for maximum fuel efficiency and power delivery across the entire spectrum. It combines a 2.4Ltr turbocharged engine with Lexus’ exquisitely engineered hybrid powertrain for all-round versatility. This hybrid produces 366hp and 550Nm of torque, making it an incredibly powerful yet efficient vehicle for both city driving and longer journeys.  

The Lexus DNA that captures supreme quality, ride comfort, and technological innovation runs throughout all three models, making the RX range a force to be reckoned with and sure to dominate its class for years to come.

Safety all around

As you would expect with a premium-class vehicle, the Lexus RX range comes with the brand’s state-of-the-art Lexus Safety System for total peace of mind. Stability control and Active Torque Control enhance positive responsiveness on more uneven terrain, giving you and your passengers a much smoother ride.

Inside, the cabins are sublimely quiet and luxuriously finished, with powered front seats covered in soft leather, wood trim dash, and a full package of electronics to give you an outstanding driver and passenger experience. With a Mark Levinson audio system that has no fewer than 21 speakers, you can have pitch-perfect music wherever you go. The new 14” multi-media touch screen gives you intuitive, user-friendly onboard navigation and finger-tip control of the cabin’s climate, as well as Apple CarPlay compatibility.

Sleek styling

The exterior of the Lexus RX range has been dynamic transformation too, with the iconic spindle grille still taking centre stage, but the overall lines of the vehicle giving it a sleeker, more refined appearance. Alloy wheels add a little bit of excitement to the look and the elevated stance gives the RX better ground clearance than many other crossovers.

An optional extra for the Lexus 2023 RX is the Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management, which coordinates the car’s stability control feature with Active Torque Control. This gives you better handling in the event of an emergency, so the driver has a far better and more responsive interaction with the vehicle.

Rising above the competition

In a highly competitive class where luxury is the norm, the Lexus RX range is proving to be a firm favourite with drivers who want the versatility of an SUV but the driving experience and nimble handling of a luxury sedan. The fusion of the two has come together perfectly in the RX, and the 2023 models have certainly fine-tuned all the refinements you would want in a premium compact SUV.
