Lexus RX Britain's Luxury SUV

Meet the Lexus RX – Britain’s top-rated luxury SUV


This sublime model hasn’t been named the best large luxury SUV in the country once, but three times – three years in succession, truly showcasing this model’s outstanding prowess on our roads.

This latest achievement came as part of the Auto Express Driver Power Survey, which showed the RX achieving the highest rating of any vehicle for the quality of its interior and also comfort, thanks to the spacious cabin striking the perfect balance between luxury and intuitive functionality. The superior Japanese Takumi craftsmanship is also evident throughout in every element, down to the intricate stitching of the quilted leather upholstery and laser-etched wood trim inlays

Taking a look at this model as a whole, it’s been at the heart of the Lexus range since it was introduced back in 2000, where it helped to pioneer the concept of a luxurious SUV that we have all come to love. Five years later, when the RX 400h – the first self-charging hybrid – was debuted, it cemented this model’s status as a pathfinder for game-changing new technology.

This time, the RX has been continuously improved to meet and also anticipate the changing needs of its customers. Now a 3.5-litre self-charging hybrid powertrain lies within, providing a smooth seamless and responsive performance that also helps you to maximise fuel efficiency – the official combined cycle figures are from 35.15 to 37.39mpg (WLTP data) with CO2 emissions from 132g/km (NEDC correlated data).

The current RX model is also offered with a seven-seat interior, known as the RX L, which has been specifically engineered to accommodate a third row of seats while still ensuring comfort for all passengers on every journey.
