- Fuel-efficient hybrid powertrain, smooth ride, luxurious and comfortable interior, smart electronics interface.
- No third-row seat, expensive option packages, questionable economic and environmental benefit.

Disappointed mpg - 2010 Lexus RX 450h
By gored - March 21 - 3:26 pmI am very disappointed in our fuel economy. After 8500 miles we average 25.5 mpg. Suburban/rural Ohio mom running a 5 teen family. No special driving of any sort. Quite a bit different from the 29 combined mpg we were represented with. Not worth it.

Ride - 2010 Lexus RX 450h
By disgusted - May 15 - 10:00 amHard, stiff, jolting ride. Very uncomfortable if there are any imperfections in the road surface. Lexus destroyed the beautiful 400h to create this mobile design error. Typical stupidity was to put the only front 12 v outlet in a cavern under 3 boxes. Duh! Why not a second convenient one? The only thing luxurious about the 450h is the price. It is our 3rd and LAST Lexus unless they replace our suspension system. It is sad to see great soft riding comfortable SUVs (RX series 1999- 2009) be trashed so badly in 2010. After 6 months the car has 3000 miles on it because our Honda truck is far more comfortable. The Lexus is history next year!
