i doubt there will be a new exterior update
if there was it would have been from the new 7 seater RXL
i can already see a few differences on my 2016 RX450h 5 seater and 7 seater RX450h
the screen actually is better clarity
the LKA system is updated
cluster and HUD system is actually whiter than before

2019 LS will be getting Apple CarPlay, so looks promising for the 2019 RX

Not sure that a dealer would have that information and of course they are hoping you buy what is on their lots at the moment...2018's

bought a 2018 from them last month and I would bet money this guy knows. Could be wrong but I highly doubt it.

I guess we will know soon enough. If I were a betting man- I would put my money on 19 RX receiving it.

Default Navi Gen

What Navigeneration does the 2018 RX use? If not latest which it does not appear to be, is that something that we could expect to be updated with refresh?

Default Potential 2019 Safety Improvements

With minor improvements projected for the 2019 RX, does anyone out there have improvements in major luxury SUV's implemented over the past 2 years? Hopefully many of these will be included.

Order guide for the 2019MY RX just came out for Canada, from what I gathered Apple CarPlay isn't coming for the RX this year. LC and LS are getting it though.

I don't have the order guide, but I've been told there are no changes compared to 2018 for the 350, while the 450h gets a new base model (not sure what comes standard though) with the rest of the packages staying the same as well.

Should be interesting to find out. The owner at my dealership told me it won't be on RX. We will see.

Default Plain answer on changes for 2019 over 2018 & price paid for 2018

So the 19 will get apple play and some cosmetic changes, anything else? Im looking at a new 2018 that lists $52,994 and has a $750 rebate. Whats the best/lowest price I can expect to pay? Does COSTCO discount really help?
Thanks dorothy
