2016 Lexus RX 350- Edgier, Longer, Lower, and with a Touch More Power

 

 

 

The Lexus RX 350 has been a luxury SUV standard for quite a while, now, but if you had started to think of it as getting a bit boring, Lexus is about to shake you out of that mindset. 

 

Lexus has, in case you hadn't noticed, used the larger black grille that adorns the rest of the Lexus line these days.  The driver sits a bit lower in the vehicle now, and the overall length and wheel base are longer than in years past.  The result is a more car-oriented driving feel, while still having the elevated view of an SUV. 

 

There are plenty of safety features, air bags galore including full length side curtain and front knee airbags, and a standard rear-view camera.  The RX 350 is still powered by a 3.5 liter V-6, which pushes 295 horsepower, an increase of 25 hp over last year. 

 

There are two trim packages, the regular and F-Sport.  Both come with an extensive list of standard features, and rate a 23 miles per gallon combined (city and highway).  The MSRP starts at just a shade under $41,000.  You can see our extensive inventory of Lexus RX 350 models at Lexus of Quad Cities
