The all-new Lexus RX is a head-turner, captivating many with its expressive cues and elegant details across every inch.
Launched at the Lexus showroom, the RX stunned the crowd with its brand-new copper crest colour. The fifth generation RX is slightly larger and wider in size with a more pronounced rear compared to its predecessor.
The new RX is a pioneer in the luxury crossover market and has undergone a complete renewal pursuing the Lexus Driving Signature performance and next-generation Lexus design.
For more than 20 years, RX’s five generations have redefined the luxury crossover space. Thoroughly modernised over its predecessor, the model continues the Japanese brand’s tradition of expertly built, quiet and comfortable luxury vehicles.
Next Chapter Lexus design: Inside-Out
In terms of design, the all-new RX is both aesthetically stunning and functional.
Its exterior allows the vehicle’s strength to be felt in a form that displays attention to detail, while its interior provides a sense of security and comfort to the vehicle’s occupants.
Outside, the all-new Lexus RX is definitely a head-turner; based on the Lexus’ next-generation design language, which harmonises functionality and elegance
The SUV exudes a seductive yet strong presence as well as accessible functionality.
The design language incorporates modern detailing and smooth-flowing lines. It is the perfect balance of athleticism and elegance.
In front, the all-new RX makes a bold statement with its refreshed interpretation of Lexus’s signature spindle grille that features a three-dimensional mass, giving the SUV a more polarising look
Moreover, the body colour is brought down to the lower edge of the Lexus emblem, emphasising the strength of the design, as well as the mathematical beauty of the grill gradation.
This striking front fascia is further emphasised by sharper headlights integrated with the brand’s L-shaped daytime running light.
Moreover, in profile, the previous model’s black C-pillars have been applied to the new RX, giving a ‘floating’ look to the roof.
At the rear, the RX features a popular trait of modern premium SUVs with a full-width LED lighting bar featuring the signature Lexus lettering.
The exterior of the RX wins on the first impression, but its premium interior is equally as stunning.
As you should expect from the Japanese automaker, the all-new RX comes with premium-feel materials throughout the cabin.
Aside from high-quality materials, at the heart of the cabin, the new RX features a 9.8-inch or 14-inch high-definition touchscreen that provides easy-to-use controls and clear information to the driver and front-seat passengers
Inside, every component in the Lexus RX has been meticulously designed to deliver a more seamless and intuitive connection between the driver and car to help enhance concentration on driving
To make the cabin more driver-centred, the all-new RX’s interior fully incorporates the Tazuna Concept, a cockpit concept that allows the driver to intuitively connect with the car and concentrate more on driving operations
Moreover, the centre console and layout have a clean design and accessibility making it easier for the drivers to be connected and be in control
With generous dimensions for all passengers, it benefits from the highest level of technology aiming to ensure a modern and global approach to comfort which includes Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay and more.
Other features include the latest voice-recognition function that enables activation via voice commands by saying a predefined activation word, for example, “Hey Lexus!”.
The New GA-K platform
In terms of dimension, the latest Lexus RX rides on an all-new platform, the Lexus’ Global Architecture GA-K platform which serves as a strong foundation for its body-on-frame build.
The GA-k platform features a lower centre of gravity, improved inertia specifications with a weight reduction of approximately 90 kg when compared to its predecessor, and body rigidity is also increased.
The GA-K platform also increases the front/rear couple distance, resulting in more legroom for rear passengers. Not only that, but with the new platform customers will also enjoy increased cargo space and a lowered back door trim to decrease loading height
Under the hood and safety features
Under the hood, the all-new RX will be available with a diverse line-up of powertrains to tailor to the customers’ needs and lifestyles including a 2.5-liter HEV FF delivering low fuel consumption and an exhilarating driving feel.
The new RX also offers a responsive 2.4L turbocharged inline-4 engine for torque-filled, dynamic driving performance.
When it comes to safety, the Japanese automaker is ahead of the game. The all-new RX comes with the evolved and comprehensive Lexus Safety System+ package setting a new benchmark for accident risk detection and prevention measures.
Notable safety features include Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Pedestrian Detection, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (with all-speed following function), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), Abnormal Driver condition response system, lane tracing assist (LTA)control and many more.
The F-Sport package
The 2022 Lexus LX also offers the optional F-Sport package that includes an exclusive front bumper that expresses a wide and low stance and contributes to aerodynamic performance, as well as 21-inch exclusive aluminium wheels.
Moreover, the grill uses an exclusive mesh pattern and has a seamless design that fuses the boundary between the body and the mesh grill, establishing a new and unique F SPORT identity.
In addition to that, opposed 6-piston brake callipers are now standard equipment in order to achieve a more linear and direct brake feel and deceleration performance.
