LEXUS CONFIRMS PRICING AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR ALL-NEW RX SUV WITH A NEW HYBRID HERO

The all-new Lexus RX will offer customers the choice of two electrified powertrains including a top-of-the-range turbocharged performance hybrid – a first for Lexus – in what will be the most powerful and dynamic RX ever offered in Australia.

That high-performance hybrid hero is the RX 500h F Sport Performance, which headlined the public reveal of the RX in Australia last week at Flemington Racecourse during the Lexus Melbourne Cup.

The new-generation SUV has been completely reimagined in the way it looks and drives and is set to shake up the luxury SUV segment when it arrives in Lexus showrooms in the first quarter of 2023.

It will be priced from $87,5001 plus on-road costs.

The RX 500h F Sport Performance uses a high-performance 2.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine in a parallel hybrid arrangement for the first time, teamed to a six-speed automatic transmission and a pair of electric motors to create DIRECT4 all-wheel drive. With 273 kW and instant torque from the electric motors it sets a new standard for the Lexus Driving Signature.

Buyers will also be able to select a turbocharged performance petrol engine producing 205 kW and 430Nm with electrically controlled all-wheel drive grip for a traditional sporty flavour.

A second intelligent hybrid powertrain producing 184kW propels the RX Luxury models in both two- and all-wheel drive, bringing to three the number of powertrain options for buyers.

The RX is the third Lexus SUV to be completely re-engineered in 2022, demonstrating the Lexus commitment to continual product improvement alongside the NX and LX.

The generously appointed, hybrid-only Luxury grades are priced below $100,0001 and have bi-LED headlamps, daytime running lamps (DRLs), front and rear fog lamps, heated and driver’s side auto-dimming exterior mirrors, rear privacy glass, roof rails and 19-inch alloy wheels with a five-spoke design combining a bright machined finish and dark grey metallic surface treatment.

All new-generation RX models feature safe exit assist (SEA) incorporating new e-latch electrically activated door handles which can detect cyclists or vehicles passing close to the vehicle and can keep the door closed to avoid a collision.

The blend of sharp styling and strong specification continues inside the cabin, with Luxury grades receiving heated, eight-way adjustable front seats with two-way power lumbar adjustment, synthetic leather trim, three-zone climate control with nanoe®2 X air purification, rear air vents, easy access steering wheel with electrically adjustable steering column, paddle shifters, interior illumination, auto-dimming rear view mirror, carpeted floor mats, four cup holders, tonneau cover and power tailgate.

All RX variants come standard with the latest Lexus multimedia system displayed on an expansive 14-inch high-definition touchscreen, compatible with Android Auto™3 and wireless Apple CarPlay®4 with sophisticated 12-speaker Panasonic®2 sound.

The system offers in-built satellite navigation5, DAB+ digital radio6 and full Lexus Connected Services7 functionality, providing further convenience and peace of mind.

Five USB-C ports are found throughout the cabin, along with two 12V sockets and one USB-A port to support multimedia connection and smartphone charging.

A comprehensive suite of Lexus Safety Sense + active safety features are included across the RX range, including the Pre-Collision System with intersection collision avoidance support, emergency steering assist and low-speed acceleration suppression, lane departure alert, dynamic radar cruise control, lane tracing assist, parking support brake, blind spot monitor, rear cross traffic alert, and more.8

New features include the driver monitor camera which assesses the driver’s state of attention when on the road.8
