2023 LEXUS RX 350H FULL REVIEW AND DRIVE

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Lexus RX 350h receives a comprehensive redesign, praised for its modern interior, advanced technology, and refined driving experience. The reviewer highlights the "smooth Glide ride" and quiet cabin, noting excellent soundproofing that minimizes engine noise at cruising speeds. Key features that impressed include the premium Triple Beam headlights, the intuitive 14-inch infotainment system with voice commands, and the comfortable, spacious rear seats with heated and cooled options. The automatic leg extender on the front seats and the digital rearview mirror are also noted as significant upgrades. While the 2.5-liter four-cylinder hybrid powertrain delivers a respectable 246 horsepower and impressive fuel efficiency (36 MPG combined), the reviewer mentions the engine can be heard laboring slightly during hard acceleration. The steering is described as responsive but not sporty. The reviewer also points out the fingerprint-prone gloss black trim and the need to actively manage the brake hold feature. Overall, the 2023 RX 350h is presented as a luxurious, comfortable, and technologically advanced SUV, with the reviewer encouraging potential buyers to consider the various upgrade options available.
