There's more performance and even some fun, sure, but this Lexus focuses on what matters most.
Despite its performance at the track, the RX500h feels quick in the real world. The electric motors are supremely responsive and the engine engages and disengages smoothly. Dipping into the accelerator to make a passing maneuver grants immediate downshifts accompanied by a thrusty deployment of torque. We never felt like it ran out of juice when used in the realm of legality.
Braking is smooth, linear, and blends the friction and regenerative systems well, but we'd really like the pedal to feel less wooden, especially under harder inputs. The RX500h is a heavy vehicle at 4,716 pounds, and we consistently measured 60-0-mph stopping distances within 132 to 137 feet, which lags most vehicles we've tested in the luxury midsize SUV segment.
The top-shelf Lexus RX comes with a standard 9.8-inch infotainment display, but our test car came equipped with the available 14.0-inch unit, which Lexus offers for $1,105. The touchscreen has crisp graphics and responds quickly to inputs, and the"Hey, Lexus" voice command controls are very effective.
If things went awry while we were on the road, the RX is primed to take care of occupants in an accident, too. Even after the IIHS toughened-up its requirements for its top award, the institute named the 2023 Lexus RX a Top Safety Pick+, with top marks in every category evaluated.In addition to being pleasant and entertaining to drive in the real world, the Lexus RX500h F Sport Performance manages to bundle fuel savings into its value proposition.
