Dealers may provide more. But this is the most detailed description on features and options I found on Internet for US market.

https://lexusenthusiast.com/2015/09/...-450h-preview/

I am not happy to learn that AVS is exclusive to F-sport for US (see KREW's comments). And aluminum is the only trim option for F-sport. Apparently, you can get wood trims for F-sport in other markets like Australia as ilv1004s' preorder indicates.

"The RX F SPORT will come standard with leather in three available colors: Black, Stratus Gray, and the F SPORT exclusive Rioja Red. Aluminum is the only trim option."

The question is, are they referring to "Gray Sapele Wood with aluminum striping"? Aluminum was not not one of the trims shown in the preview.

melodyqi

Unfortunately no. It is all aluminum without wood. You can check out the readily available F-sport interior photo with red leather. They have the all aluminum trim on the center cup holder area and on door trims.

Hopefully they will have an option to upgrade wheels to 20" for a non F sport model. I also want to find out if the bigger screen and other options are included as standard on the F sport. Might just be worth picking up an F sport one.

What if you get the F-Sport and Luxury Package?

Bearcat

I believe it's either one or the other?

Martin321

I thought so too, paying 7-9K extra should include some of the Luxury options.

Bearcat

I totally agree...at least have the option to have one FULLY loaded.

melodyqi

I totally agree too. What is the point of advertising this new Yamaha trim design when you cannot have it in the top of line package.

ericsan13

I guess special order is the only route to really get what you want? I wonder if they will reduce the price of the packages due to overlap between them.

Bearcat

I don't think you can special order. You order from what they let you get.

ericsan13

So you are saying it is impossible to get both the features from the luxury and F-Sport package? How come you can select both options on edmunds on the current RX for example?

Bearcat

That's Edmunds...you can select anything you want on that. It knows nothing about packages.

Probably not. When I special ordered my 450h I was told I could not get the luxury package with the sport package. But the dealer altered the comfort package slightly by removing the cost of the HID headlights. I went with LED instead and paid for it separately. Hopefully some features will be available that way.

Wow, just checked out the Lexus.eu site mentioned by Bearcat in another thread. Unlike the North America sites where nothing is going on, the European site has swapped out the 2015 RX with 2016 RX. Besides having more pictures and some promo videos, you can actually build the "grade" you want. There, F-sports and Luxury are two different grades, you either choose one or the other. Their Luxury grade for the most part has more features than the F-sports, so I figured it would be more expensive. Comparing the two, they both have AVS, that means you get Sport S+ on the Luxury grade too, not just in the F-sport. The only thing that might differentiate the driving dynamics between the two is that F-sports has Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) and Luxury doesn't. I don't know much about that feature, so I cannot comment. I now really hope that we have the similar Luxury package here in the US where AVS is included. If so, I might just go with that instead of F-sports.
