It comes with four (4) redesigned powertrains, including three electrified.

The all-new next-gen 2023 Lexus RX Crossover SUV is expected to go on sale at the end of 2022.
Meet the 2023 Lexus RX, the all-new fifth-generation of the Toyota Motor luxury brand’s first-ever SUV that kick-started the luxury Crossover SUV craze more than 20 years ago.
The 2023 Lexus RX is completely redesigned from the wheels to the roof rails, featuring new exterior and interior designs, a new global platform, two all-new grades, Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 and Lexus Interface Multimedia System.
Lexus says that the redesigned model maintains what makes an RX an RX: a comfortable, quiet in-cabin atmosphere, refined ride comfort, excellent grip and drive force control and confident driving enjoyment.
“Nothing exemplifies our commitment to the transformation we’re making as a brand and Next Chapter for Lexus product more than the renewal of our best-selling vehicle – the RX,” said Andrew Gilleland, group vice president and general manager, Lexus Division.
“We’re breathing new life into the segment-leading RX with enhanced safety and technology, human-centered design and undeniable performance from a diverse mix of powertrains.”
On the outside, the 2023 RX comes with new spindle body design, and rides on 19-inch wheels with a dark gray machined finish and color-keyed overfenders – a more powerful look, 21-inch wheels are available in luxury color variations.
At the rear, the RX inherits the signature L-shaped light bar lamp with lenses that wrap around to the sides of the body to emphasize a wider, more powerful silhouette.
Lexus says that the 2023 RX will be offered in six grades : Standard, Premium, RX-first Premium+, Luxury, F SPORT Handling and RX-first F SPORT Performance.
Inside, opening the door with just a touch of the e-Latch system, the RX welcomes the driver with available multi-colored illumination accents, tasteful door trim options and an available panorama glass roof that evokes a relaxing, open space.
Driver controls like the steering wheel switches, available head-up display, available navigation and audio have been designed in a functional, concise layout to minimize driver distraction. Lexus Interface and trials come standard on the RX and a 14-inch Multimedia Touchscreen Display is available.
Based on the new GA-K platform, the new RX rides on a 2.36-inch longer wheelbase with a 2.36-inch shorter rear overhang, keeping the overall length of the vehicle the same as the previous generation.
The GA-K platform also increases the front/rear couple distance, allowing more legroom for rear passengers as well as increased cargo space.
Powertrain options
The all-new RX will be offered in four new powertrain options, including a Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) model.
The RX 350 (FWD/AWD) offers a responsive 2.4L turbocharged inline-4 engine for torque-filled, dynamic driving performance.
The RX 350h (AWD) fourth-generation large-capacity fuel-efficient hybrid system features a front unit that integrates a high-torque 2.5L inline-4 engine.
The RX 450h+ plug-in hybrid vehicle details for the U.S. market will be shared at a later time.
Next Level Performance: RX-first F SPORT Performance Grade
The RX 500h F SPORT Performance, a first for the RX lineup, features a sportier, more performance-driven look and feel – thanks to the mesh grille, front bumper and a 21-inch aluminum wheels that exude a wide, confident stance.
Safety features in the all-new Lexus RX includes Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, which provides additional features offered with the available driver monitor system.
Safety features
Standard features include Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Pedestrian Detection, Intersection Support and a new feature of Motorcycle Detection.
There are also all-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with new Curve Speed Management (DRCC), Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA) and Emergency Driving Stop System (EDSS).
Available Advanced Park expands support for parallel parking. In addition to conventional back-up parking, forward-facing parking is now supported, enabling forward-facing/back-up exit.
The all-new next generation 2023 Lexus RX Crossover sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) is expected to go on sale at the end of 2022.
