Lexus RX (US) review

The number of repeat buyers and high residual values commanded by RXs tells you a lot about how people feel about owning one of these crossovers – they love them. And it’s not hard to see why. The RX just makes every journey so comfortable and easy to manage, you arrive relaxed and calm.

Fuel economy is very good in the hybrid models (31/28mpg) and more than acceptable (19/26mpg) in the purely gas-powered models. Load space is not cavernous (18cu.ft) or particularly cleverly packaged. But it’s easy to access and simple and quick to expand to three times that size by folding down the rear seats.
