Here's All You Wanted To Know About The All-New 2023 Lexus RX | Carscoops carscoops
Before getting our seat time in the latest version of the RX we asked you what you wanted to know. Here’s a deeper dive into all of the minutiae that we couldn’t fit into the review but that you wanted to know about.How effective is the lane-centering assist?
It’s fine but we’ve experienced a number of cars that do it better. The RX will keep you in the middle of the lane but in our time with it, it tended to wander around in the lane just a touch more than expected. At the same time, it’s worth noting that it didn’t feel unsafe or dangerous at all.We think this is unquestionably the best-drivingever made. It’s sharper and smoother than before. The engine’s responsiveness depends on which trim one gets through.
Yes. However, it’s worth noting that Lexus doesn’t allow you to configure the screen anywhere as much as many rivals. Only the lower center part of the screen is configurable.This feature worked exactly as intended for me. Granted, I have size 13 feet and didn’t have my arms full as most using this feature might but on three attempts, the tailgate opened each time. It’s worth noting that it opens pretty fast so it’s important to swipe your leg and then get out of the way.
What’s up with skinny 235 tires on RX? 🙁 Why can’t they up them to 275 on the ‘performance’ version? Don’t forget that ultimately, this is a Lexus RX which means that performance is never the actual focus. Sure, they can chuck 366 hp at the driver with the 500h but luxury, comfort, and fuel economy are still higher on the priority list.
