Overview & Reviews

The Lexus RX 350 is a vehicle that's comfortable in its own metal. And why wouldn't it be? This midsize luxury crossover SUV has long been a consumer favorite thanks to its plush ride, spacious interior, strong reliability record and appealing high-tech features. While the RX 350 doesn't promise much in the way of driving passion, its combination of comfort and convenience is hard to top in a five-passenger luxury crossover. It also commands lofty resale values due to that sterling Lexus reputation.

Offering either front- or all-wheel drive, the RX 350 dates back to 2007, when it was introduced as a continuation of the RX 330. It has received significant upgrades in cabin technology over the years, but a generous standard features list and excellent build quality are a given with any Lexus RX 350. Unless you need the versatility of a third-row seat, this Lexus is likely to be a compelling proposition.

  Love my car - 2014 Lexus RX 350
  By barbararaa1 - January 10 - 3:09 pm

  I leased my 2014 Lexus RX 350 last October, so its been almost one year. Has all bells and whistles. I really love my car. Very quite ride, comfortable seats. Back seat passengers are pleased with all the leg room. Car feels very safe. The worst part of my Lexus experience was dealing with Lexus of Sacramento. But I have found other Lexus dealers much more professional for which I am very thankful.

  First and probably last - 2010 Lexus RX 350
  By David Moore - December 16 - 9:00 am

  I bought this car fully loaded. I would not consider the stereo system to be premium. I feel the car leans too much on turns. On a highway, you can feel every bump in the road and I feel the ride is jittery and tosses you from left to right as you travel. Too much engine noise when car downshifts. Not expected in a luxury car.

  OK, but not Lexus best effort - 2010 Lexus RX 350
  By Mike - December 13 - 2:36 pm

  I have owned a 2010 RX 350 for six months now and have developed a fairly good feel for its pros and cons. This is my third Lexus since 1990, having owned a LS 400 and currently owning an LS 460. The RX 350 is my first SUV. Let me start by saying that I am not a fan of this style vehicle, preferring a station wagon instead. But I needed something that could tow. I find the peripheral vision in the RX is poor. Maybe it’s the tinted windows. Or maybe it’s the roof lines. But switching lanes, particularly to the right, is never fun in this vehicle. Also, the driver’s side view mirror is blurry and shows double images at the edges. Lexus says it’s a design problem and doesn’t plan to change the

  Subtle Yet Noticeable Improvements - 2010 Lexus RX 350
  By IDriveAnM5 - December 4 - 1:23 pm

  Upgraded from 2007 RX 350 AWD. Wifes car - shes a lifetime Lexus fan. 2010 model is touted as "totally redesigned," but I think it is more subtle than that. The engine is quieter, gearbox is much smoother, and suspension rework is a big improvement. Others have complained about wind noise, and I seem to agree. Overall, not much disappoints in this new car. Very glad that new rear suspension creates a flatter cargo floor. Were pleased with the upgrade so far. The wife is concerned about the on-demand AWD feature, so we may spend the winter with the Diff locked, which will probably penalize the fuel mileage.

  6-1/2 years old and zero repairs - 2011 Lexus RX 350
  By Matthew - November 30 - 12:26 am

  No repair of any kind ever needed since I bought this car new in 2011. Just regular maintenance. Had the same story on my previous RX350. Unbeatable reliability. Its no BMW (I have owned a couple of those) but you feel firmly in control in any highway or city situation. Wife and I are older, and we appreciate the ease of getting in and out plus the advantage of sitting higher than much of the traffic. Very comfortable ride and satisfactory all around vehicle for normal driving. Son-in-law has one just like mine, someone pulled onto the highway right in front of him with traffic at 60mph. He swerved to avoid the idiot, got bounced back and forth between an oncoming pickup and another one behind him, rolled 4 times, all 11 airbags deployed and he crawled out of the sunroof with just a sore neck. His car was squashed front and back. Automatic fuel cutoff and doorlocks. Thats pretty good safety.

  Lexus keeps a good thing going in 09 - 2009 Lexus RX 350
  By Steve Rose - November 25 - 3:30 am

  I love this car! Function and form. What more could you ask for? A run to Home Depot? No problem. A night out on the town? Looking good! All the features you could ever want at a reasonable price. MPG that will make you want to ditch your SUV! Also, knowing that underneath is a Toyota product that will run forever with little more than the occasional oil change is very comforting.

  2010 RX - 2010 Lexus RX 350
  By alk - November 19 - 5:30 am

  having had the chance to own the rx 07 model prior to this is giving me mixed emotions about the 2010 model. first, the interior I know has been redesigned but the quality of the materials used for the older model is better.The technology is amazingly fun to use although the bluetooth doesnt work with all phone models.
