Test Drive RX350 Turbo
I would be interested in hearing more people chime in that had the previous generation RX that have bought the 2023 and compare ! Reviews are all over the place.

It's quite clear from this video that they don't care for the new RX ! I have talked with folks that have the new one, and they are telling me that the engine is not that much noisier than the previous V6 unless you push it. Normal , every day driving they don't see much difference, and say that that it is actually much quieter than the previous generation inside. I'm anxious to try one out. I will amit, I'm not a fan of a 4 , but I will give it a chance. Also waiting for the GX redesign with the V6 before I decide.
I am a big fan of the hybrid I-4 in the RX350h, which is basically the same powertrain as I currently have in my Avalon. It is quiet, smooth, fuel efficient, reliable and has plenty power and speed for me. I am not such a fan of the turbo I-4 in the RX350 when it is no more fuel efficient, requires premium fuel and is less pleasing to drive than a regular gas V6. So for me it will be the RX350h or RX450h or not a Lexus again this time. Last time in 2018, I bought a Cadillac XT5 instead of the RX350 because at that time my wife liked the seat comfort better and it had a much better interior. The XT5 has been as reliable as a Lexus and actually more pleasing to drive, however the RX has much better ADAS than the XT5. I hope my wife likes the seat comfort in the RX350h since I have given her veto power based on that sole attribute.
