The Lexus RX is an exciting daily driver. Its powertrain delivers over 200 horsepower, helping you quickly travel from the farmer’s market to the shopping mall. A lot of power under the hood also grants you towing opportunities! What about endurance? The RX balances power and efficiency, so you can continue adventuring without frequent refueling.
A 2.4L turbo 4-cylinder engine serves as the heart of the Lexus RX. It produces 275 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque, generating thrilling yet steady acceleration and plenty of muscle. Speaking of which, when properly equipped, this SUV can tow up to 3,500 pounds. Which toy will you bring to elevate your next family vacation or friend get-together?
- A couple jet skis
- A lightweight travel trailer
- A utility trailer with a few snowmobiles
- A pop-up camper
- A small fishing boat
Your next adventure may be a road trip! Front-wheel drive comes standard, helping you tackle all those miles with ease. Opt for all-wheel drive for added on-road confidence in all weather and road conditions.
Is the Lexus RX the right vehicle for your road trip? Absolutely. This fuel-sipping SUV offers impressive fuel efficiency along with its powerful engine. The fuel economy the RX yields depends on the drivetrain you choose:
- FWD: EPA-estimated 22 city/29 highway MPG
- AWD: EPA-estimated 21 city/28 highway MPG
With all those interruption-free miles ahead, you may want to switch up your driving style occasionally. The standard Drive Mode Select feature allows you to dial into one of four modes—Normal, ECO, Sport, and Custom—to match your driving wants and needs.
The Lexus RX will be your home away from home. It offers a spacious and comfortable cabin made for inviting friends and family. Plus, it offers creature comforts that simultaneously elevate your time behind the wheel and add convenience.
