Review 2016 lexus RX 350 Looks & Price - give a driving experience that accentuates coziness, gentleness, and quality

The new RX starts with a few familiar details, with a remarkably impressive version of the spindle grille in front, with a what are referred to as "triple-L" headlamps, LED fog lamps, and LED daytime running lamps. With its floating roof design that tapers near the back, teasing a C-pillar that isn’t quite continuous, some swoopy, flared rear fenders, and a relatively level, flowing beltline, coupe-like wouldn’t be an exaggeration determined by what we see there, and the Nissan Murano might well have a rival with nearly the head-turning design.



For power, the RX 350 gets the course with its 3.5-liter V6, however right now it makes 25 more horsepower (for a total of 295) and arrives standard with an eight-speed automatic transmission which helps boost fuel economy relatively. Lexus has also retuned the suspension to give you better handling in comparison to prior RX models. The RX 350 F Sport, for example, finally delivers the goods, boasting sharper steering as compared to the standard version, plus an adaptive suspension that provides you with an impressively controlled, yet still comfortable ride. At last, the F Sport is allocated more at mildly sporty competitors like the Acura MDX than at determined performance models, but it's a worthwhile drive nonetheless.

The 2016 Lexus RX $51,610.00 at TrueCar consists of three trim levels: front-wheel drive that starts at $41,900, rear-wheel drive with a base price tag on $43,300, and the performance-oriented F Sport AWD that begins at $49,125. (An RX h450 hybrid is also found in the same three trim levels.) All models are provided with a 3.5-liter V6 engine and eight-speed automatic transmission. We tested the AWD model with Active Torque Control and a Drive Mode Select switch with Eco, Normal, and Sport settings.
