so its true 2018 RX no longer will build FSport? No pricing in 2018 FSport column.
But no 2018 FSport pricing except for GS and NX.

aldini

nice find! Thank you. Any release dates? I've heard the non-hybrid will include PCS

Lexus has made news releases for the RX and ES including product sheets and specs of packages last week on their site. Thinking the NX will be next (or hoping at least!).

I wish they would get rid of the touch pad on the NX NAV. I really liked the mouse controller on my RX's.

Where are you finding that information on the Lexus site? When I look, I'm still only seeing information about the 2017 RX and 2017 ES.

On the Lexus site. You'll see the 2018 specs and releases here http://pressroom.lexus.com/lexus/releases/

Thanks for the link.

I totally agree, but Lexus is not listening. It's the most annoying and frustrating thing they have ever done. I never use my Nav anymore.

I have complained about this many times and even commented to the Lexus Advisory Board in the past. I used to get surveys regularly from the advisory board but nothing in many months. It would appear Lexus no longer wants owners opinions.

I hate the touch pad so much my next Lexus will not have Navigation. That's if i buy another Lexus, I'm shopping elsewhere at this time since my lease is almost up.

I just read somewhere that the 2018 RX will be out mid December. I would think the NX would be similar. The 2015 NX came out in late November 2014, If I recall correctly.

I wonder what's the reason behind changing the name of the 200t to 300. I thought they were upping the power on the engine but it's the same engine.

When Lexus has named its hybrid vehicles, the number in the name is supposed to represent an estimate of what the size would be of an ICE that would yield the same power as the combined ICE and electric power output of the hybrid. For example, with the RX450h, they are saying that it would take a 4.5 liter ICE to give the same horsepower as the 3.5 liter ICE plus the electric engine that the car has. With the ES300h, they are saying that it would take a 3.0 liter ICU to give the same horsepower as the 2.5 liter ICE plus the electric engine the car has.

I suspect that Lexus is now moving toward a similar naming scheme for vehicles with turbo engines. Thus, they are saying that, for the NX300t it would take a 3.0 liter non-turbo engine to provide the same power as the 2.0 liter turbo engine in the vehicle.

^^^ What he said above except I don't think they call it NX300t, though. I think it is NX300 and NX300h.

lesz

You are correct. In my haste to type the answer, I just started, without much thought, typing an "h" or a "t", after the number of a hybrid or turbo model. I've corrected that error in my earlier post.
