Eric's Autoe: 2024 Lexus RX
The fourth iteration of the RX is the $62,750 500h. It's a performance hybrid that has more power (366 horsepower) than any previous RX even though it's also powered by a turbocharged four. It gets better gas mileage than the turbo-four-only RX350 -- which burns more gas because it lacks the hybrid assist.
What's New for 2024
The plug-in RX450h is new for this model year. Cloudhouse Gray has been added to the available color palette.
What's Good
-- Multiple drivetrain choices.
-- Rear seats can be reclined.
-- 12-speaker premium audio system and three-zone climate control are standard in base RX350.
What's Not So Good
-- No more standard V6.
-- Standard 2.4-liter four only returns slightly better gas mileage than previously standard V6 -- and is down 15 horsepower versus the previous V6.
