It's a Mental hang-up w some set in their Old ways imo. The new Turbo 4 is more than adequate in my wife's non-hybrid Luxury 2023. Non issue 💯.

Time will tell if the new Lexus turbo-4 is as reliable in the 2023 RX350 as the time tested 2022 and earlier Lexus V6. Based on my test drive of the 2023 RX350, the turbo-4 was powerful enough, but noisier and less linear and smooth than a V6. The engine of choice for me is the hybrid I-4 in the RX350h which is essentially the same as I had in my previously owned Avalon. Probably look at the RX350h again in the next 6 to 12 months as a replacement for my XT5. Waiting for more selection to get closer to the specific configuration I want. In the meantime, I am thoroughly enjoying driving my new Tesla Model S.

I have owned turbocharged (and supercharged) cars since the early 1990s...no issues.

The 500h has a smooth power delivery from a standstill, especially when the EV to ICE changes over.
