Part 2 of the 2020 RX review has been posted and please share your thoughts. Few reviews in the work please follow on Instagram for more details @exhaustsports or you may become a Patreon member. Thanks for stopping by
Excellent and honest as always! Before I acquired my 07' ES350 I had a crappy 06' Kia Sorento that made me wish I looked a bit more for a 1st gen RX! Looking forward to more "old but gold" Lexus reviews, if you find any! Appreciate you bro!
Thanks so much Ben and you def made an excellent choice with your ES, had the updated nice looks and was very comfortable to drive. I definitely hope to find more quality used cars worth featuring for sure. I appreciate your support my friend please do take care
My wife and I would like for Lexus to enhance the Blind side feature. Currently, it only alerts the driver by a light on the outside rear view mirror. We need to add a beep sound.. We traded our Acura RDX in for our 2020 RX, and the RDX provided Audio and light Blindside alert.
I just purchased mine, I got one with very minimal upgrade But, like you said on the video it still delivers, so comfy to drive with a luxurious feel, just meets my needs. So glad I opted for this instead of a GLC sorry MB. Thanks for a very in-depth critic. Good job! You got yourself a new subscriber. Keep it up!
Just bought the F Sport version and your review is spot on. It is a nice and comfortable car. The car has enough juice to get you in and out of traffic.
When you look at new Toyotas, Hondas, etc., the Lexus price becomes a very good value for the bump up in luxury, if that's something you're looking for. Also this uses regular gas which is nice in a luxury vehicle.
Nice to see a truly honest review. I enjoyed the long version of this review and also your review of the 2017 RX. I was originally thinking of getting a 2017 CPO RX, but after watching your reviews and also test driving both the 2017 and the 2020, I have decided to go for the new one. I think the new one is worth the extra bucks in the long run. I will get a new RX next week, taking advantage of the $3K rebate now being offered. Thanks again for helping me to make my mind up.
That is awesome! Massive congrats on your new purchase and I'm so humbled I could be apart of your decision making. I think you def made the right move, the 2020 really is a high quality vehicle and the subtle changes they made added up to a big difference. Enjoy your new ride my friend
I don't think this is the base RX. This model is pretty much loaded with options. You can tell by the larger infotainment, the triple beam Led headlights, the LED tail lights and the open pore wood interior trim. I want to say this is the Luxury trim but I am not quite sure.
I concur with just about everything you said about this automobile! I have the same RX 2020 with the executive package(this May be a Canadian option) & I really, really like it! Previously, I owned a 2015 RX350 loaded with every option & I thought it was a very nice auto, however, the 2020 is a much nicer machine in every category!
David, I test drove a 2020 RX350 a couple days ago, really liked the ride and the quietness of the cabin, I did notice while driving it that the instrument panel plexiglass speed/tach had a glare from the sun, have you had any issues with this?
I got a 2020 RX350 in nori green exterior and black interior with 20 inch rims and I love it! I plan to keep it for the long run. Mine is FWD. I just wish my steering wheel had the wood. It's so classy. But I fell in love with the exterior color. Wished the interior was just like the one in the video.
Thank you for your reviews! I purchased an Atomic Silver 2020 RX350! Birch and black interior. It is not as souped up as the one you were driving, my screen is 8” screen but I got the 20” tires, sunroof and other little perks. I’m really happy! I pick up tomorrow.
Oh wow massive congrat yea I'm really happy for you this was a great and enjoyable car you will love it for sure. Let me know your thoughts once you get it!
Exhaust Sports Auto I love my RX. It is such a sexy car to look at and I’m glad I got the Birch interior. I think it really makes the interior look modern. So I definitely think you were spot on with your reviews. It is a very comfortable ride, but you are right about when you do try to punch the gas. It’s like the engine isn’t as fast as your foot, so it takes a second before kicking into gear and accelerating. I don’t think the infotainment system is very intuitive and I don’t like that the phone has to be plugged in to use Apple car play. I would think it could just connect via Bluetooth. Last thing, I wish the placement of the track pad and the knob for changing the drive of the car (sport/eco) were switched. It’s hard to try to use the pad when driving bc it is so close to you. Overall I love my RX. It is a very comfortable ride and great SUV. I got a pretty good deal, so I can’t complain.
Chi Chi C. I got the atomic silver also, it was that or night fall mica. Got it this past weekend! I literally have zero complaints about how it drives so far. I know it was said to skip the f sport but I’ve been admiring it for so long I decided to get it. It’s a bit noisier inside than the GX I was considering but I love it so far.
ARXV Photo Congratulations!!! The F sport has such a nice interior! I bet you can move! I fell in love with the Atomic Silver, now I feel like that’s the only color Lexus I see lol! Have fun with it! It is such a great SUV!
Thank you for your comments particularly about the NX. I have one and it’s been disappointing particularly on longer trips. Twitchy ride. The lane keeping assist is always hunting. Radar cruise control doesn’t work as well as I had hoped. I’m looking forward to replacing it with an RX or a CX-9.
According to KBB the top 7 Luxury SUV's are (1) Audi Q8, (2) BMW X5, (3) MBZ GLE, (4) Audi Q7, (5) Volvo XC 90, (6) Buick Enclave, (7) Lexus RX...Regarding the Lexus, I can get a 2020 Toyota Highlander XLE near me for $40K after a $3K discount! The Highlander has the same engine as the Lexus (which makes no sense), for $20K cheaper (go figure). I only wish that the Highlander offered a sport package like the Lexus' 'F' Sport.
Yea I stopped keeping up with mainstream awhile ago I unfortunately don't put much merit into their works anymore. Highlanders are great but will never have the chassis or handling of the premium cars because they don't apply that type of effort into their cars because they don't have to it just needs to be comfy and spacious. I def want to review a new highlander tho
@@aerotus888 I don't think prices will go down,. Not to sound mean but too many stupid people paying MRSP or more for over a year now both new and used, dealers have gotten used to the $$$ and the constant chip shortage b.s. excuses. Not just cars either inflation is a b***ch.
I read that the 2018 year is the most reliable year from “motors and wheels” magazine. Which year would u buy used? Will all wheel drive be more problems in future?
Love your reviews. I own a '16 RX350 and '13 ES300h and in your RX and ES reviews, you state they both had a bit of wind / road noise. Which vehicle, used or new, would you recommend that are quieter and how much quieter should I expect them to be?
Hey thanks so much my friend so surprisingly the quiter Lexus cars that I have noticed were made before 2013 aside from the LS that I noticed. Even some of the newer lexus cars are pretty noisy other than this RX and hopefully ES. I will say the 2013 and up cars handle and feel far superior to the older Lexus cars that were primarily plush and quiet hope this helps my friend
Exhaust Sports Auto thanks for the great video.....have you driven an F sport as a comparison to a standard RX 350? I considering both and don’t know if I need the extra bells and whistles and there really isn’t a performance boost with the F sport. The standard in Sport mode would probably be enough of a performance boost for me.
I recently reviewed the RX 450h F Sport! And in summary no, the F sport is not worth it nor is the hybrid. A regular RX 350 2020 with the ML audio and you're good to go!
So one last little point about F sport for the 2020 RX. There are two different packages, F sport Appearance and F Sport Performance I tried the actual F sport Performance which gives you the Variable Gear Ratio Steering, the regular steering is perfect. And for those that just like the way the F sport looks, you can get the F sport Appearance so it'll look like an F sport but there won't be any mechanical changes. Plus I've noticed F sport Lexus cars retain some more value something to look into since you like the wheels!
Def test drive both I feel like you can be ok with the FWD because they did a good job with the chassis and suspension so I don't think the car will just peal out on you when turning. Awd just helps FWD based vehicles have more neutral handling characteristics but you certainly don't seem to need AWD for inclement weather purposes, just handling but try both hope this helps.
definitely go with fwd. awd is a waste of money. awd is less fuel efficient, more to maintain, and more expensive to get and the only good argument for it is better handling/traction in snow which i dont think is a problem in southern california lol.
I just bought 2020 rx 350 and added some packages to it. I am thinking of switching out for the f sport. Is there any major difference other than the speedometer being electronic? Do they drive tje same? Is f sport faster?
I would not get the F sport I just drove the RX 450h F sport performance and the F sport package did nothing for it. I would keep your regular car its perfect
I have not but I would love to i only drove a 2018 S4 and a 2018 A5. I like Audis a lot very solid but lacks some soul. But they do comfort and sports pretty well. Thanks again for stopping by Greg! May get Audi press cars in the future once this virus nonsense passes
I've heard the ES hybrid was good maybe you're right about the RX but I'm going to have to try it for myself the NX and LS hybrids were a lost cause for me hopefully the ES and RX hybrids are not
Hi Kevin. Thank you for making such a great review for RX 350. I am considering buying a CPO RX 350. Currently, the 2017 model has the best price. I remember that you mentioned the 2020 model has a much better ride quality than 2017 model. Is it the difference worth buying a more expensive new 2020 model? What about 2018 and 2019. Are they the same ride quality with 2017 or the same as 2017? Any suggestions? Thank you!
Hey thanks so much for stopping by my friend. 2017 CPO RX is a phenomenal choice of vehicle I know you will love it. I haven't driven an 18 or 19 but I'm assuming it is the same as a 17. If you drove a 2020 I think you will notice a difference but it's not earth shattering, the core of the vehicle remains the same so 2017 at the right price is great. I would just try and negotiate something on a 2020 see if there is one that has been sitting on a Lexus lot for a long time and is heavily discounted, use cargurus to find out. But if you can't work something reasonable on a 2020, no worries a CPO 2017 is excellent. Thanks again for asking a great question
@@MeynMotorGroup Thank you so much for the quick reply, my friend. I did test drive a 2019 model RX 350 at my local used car dealer a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed the ride quality and like the interior quality. I will make sure to have a test drive of the 2020 mode to feel the difference. Hopefully I am able to get a good deal! 😄 Thank you again! Looking forward to watching your future videos. 👍
Toyota still struggles with its 8 speed cars being jerky, 8 speed is just too many gears, 6 speed is ideal for smooth power delivery. Look up the class action suit against toyota for its 8 speed transmissions.
I have an NX FWD....it certainly has a bit of lag for take off from a full stop, and handling is not the best. How would you compare the RX to the NX drive?...it it a SIGNIFICANT experience? Minimal difference?
Yea the main difference for me is the ride quality and quietness I find the RX to be more refined I would recommend it if you can spend the extra money or buy one with less options
@@MeynMotorGroup Will look into them a little more. I too am kinda aggressive on driving. I like the Lexus ownership services compared to the old BMW, I just want something with a bit more power. :)
Hmm if power is something you want I think you will be satisfied with the RX but maybe look into an ES 350 as well if you can get away with a sedan it will be lighter weight and have the same engine as an RX so should be a bit faster
I have purchased my 2nd RX. First one was a 2020 RX350 FSport. Seats were a little hard, and ride was a little too stiff. Thats the only complaint. Just bought a 2021 RX350, with the luxury package and fully loaded. Much better! Ride, and drive is flawless. Love this one alot. Prior to the RXs, was driving LS460s. They killed that amazing car, for the LS500. Not impressed at all with it. Bad choice made by Lexus!!
Great review.. As you know I have a 2013 ES350 with only 36k miles now... Amazing car and best is the 3.5L V6 is bulletproof and only takes REGULAR gas, using the min. By min. Graph in the dash , gentle on the gas pedal I average 40+ on the highway... It’s so aerodynamic and low to the ground, definitely a wind cheater... It has Fluted plastic lens cover on the tail end for increased aerodynamics and maybe by the side mirrors too. This RX-350 looks amazing also... There is a reason why it surpassed the ES350 as the #1 seller for Lexus. The gas mileage will always suffer in a SUV, heavier, taller, wider and less wind resistant is going to give you poorer gas mileage. I owned a piece of SHIT BMW X5 for only 8 months and that was a PIG, I averaged about 12 mpg around city driving during those 8 months and it required Premium gas... Thank God i got rid of it for My ES350 !!
Hey thanks so much for your support on Instagram sir I really appreciate that. You certainly made a good choice with a 2013 ES great cars highly recommended
Exhaust Sports Auto no problem! My pleasure. I thoroughly enjoy your car reviews ! Especially of the Lexus models ! You go into a lot of detail which I love. Very honest and simple. If you ever get a chance to review a C7 stingray I would love to see that That’s gonna be my retirement car in about four years, although I have seen probably every RUclips video on the C7 stingray ! Lol. Edited: I saw on your Instagram page , you did a C7 review, gonna watch now
Exhaust Sports Auto yes my ES350 was a great decision! It’s an amazing car and by far the best I’ve ever owned. I’m 56 driving nearly 40 years and I’ve owned 20 cars in my lifetime ! LEXUS is the BEST !!
I acquired this identical vehicle down to color one month ago. This is the worst vehicle I have owned or driven. I have had other Lexus vehicles so I expected better. Customer Service at Lexus has disappeared entirely which makes the brand a very sorry purchase. My comments would be huge if I mentioned what is wrong with it. Can’t wait to return it. Navigation, can’t find an address. Climate Control, can’t cool down the car. Door locks, maybe they will lock or unlock. Rain sensing wipers work if you are in a hurricane but don’t expect them to come on otherwise. I could go on and on. Alexa...what a joke. She hasn’t awakened yet and she’s been on the job 32 days now. Truly, what a disaster. Thanks for listening.

Just got a 2021 RX350. It's a truly great vehicle. Solid, refined, quiet and very comfortable. I can see myself keeping in for a very.long time.
As always, great video! Love how you tell things the way they are, no sugarcoating
Trying my best my friend really happy that you stopped by
I just picked up a 2020 RX 350, what a gorgeous vehicle, so impressive!
Thinking of purchasing the RX. Thanks, Kevin. Your review has been very helpful and informative.
I agree I love this car. Best part is reliability and no/low repair bills compared to European suvs
So true! And so much softer than a lot of the others (ofcourse not all)!
My wife and I would like for Lexus to enhance the Blind side feature. Currently, it only alerts the driver by a light on the outside rear view mirror. We need to add a beep sound.. We traded our Acura RDX in for our 2020 RX, and the RDX provided Audio and light Blindside alert.

Thanks man. Bought a FWD 2020 RX 350 instead of a Telluride cause of this review. Worth the extra $$
Heck yea massive congrats my friend that is awesome how are you liking it?
@@MeynMotorGroup just got it yesterday, still getting familiarized with everything, but i knew i made the right decision on the drive home.
Thrilla from Manila
So what do you think of it now after a month?
@@AdamWanly Brilliant decision. Now I see why "Lexus Quality" is hyped up.
Thrilla from Manila glad to hear that. Thanks for the feedback. I’m about to get one myself.

Couldnt agree w you more,its pure luxury, i had rx and now have the nx.rx rules
How the base model has fog lights
I don't think this is the base RX. This model is pretty much loaded with options. You can tell by the larger infotainment, the triple beam Led headlights, the LED tail lights and the open pore wood interior trim. I want to say this is the Luxury trim but I am not quite sure.
You're right its not base its loaded to the brim with everything
I concur with just about everything you said about this automobile! I have the same RX 2020 with the executive package(this May be a Canadian option) & I really, really like it! Previously, I owned a 2015 RX350 loaded with every option & I thought it was a very nice auto, however, the 2020 is a much nicer machine in every category!
Yea I agree! They did a great job refining this RX I really love it for 2020. Congrats on your new ride and thank you for stopping by my friend
David, I test drove a 2020 RX350 a couple days ago, really liked the ride and the quietness of the cabin, I did notice while driving it that the instrument panel plexiglass speed/tach had a glare from the sun, have you had any issues with this?
Stan McGinnis No, I don’t think so!
I think that the hybrid lexus vehicles have to increase the stiffness of the suspension to compensate for the weight of the battery’s and motors.
I agree.
You're one of the few reviewers who get it.
Thank you my friend! The mainstream reviewers will never understand
I wonder why it's always the big wide screen on the base model. Every RX Base 2020 I've looked at has a very small almost squared screen
I got a 2020 RX350 in nori green exterior and black interior with 20 inch rims and I love it! I plan to keep it for the long run. Mine is FWD. I just wish my steering wheel had the wood. It's so classy. But I fell in love with the exterior color. Wished the interior was just like the one in the video.

Ride quality is about the same between these two vehicles I personally like the Lexus interior more
@@MeynMotorGroup Thanks so much! Then it's decided, my next car is going to be a 2020 RX450h! Just need to wait a year or two for prices to come down!
@@aerotus888 I don't think prices will go down,. Not to sound mean but too many stupid people paying MRSP or more for over a year now both new and used, dealers have gotten used to the $$$ and the constant chip shortage b.s. excuses. Not just cars either inflation is a b***ch.
@@robbrown6240 I'm in UK. Prices seem more reasonable here for 2nd hand cars.
Base model from title. But vehicle displays F Sport version?
what about the seats? are the f sports more uncomfortable than normal seats?

I am thinking of putting low profile tires on my rx 350 2020. What are your thoughts on that?
Could someone confirm there is aloud noise under the hook in ignition mode of 2020 rx350 model?
What exterior color was the RX350 you reviewed?
Man honestly I forgot I don't think this is atomic silver tho
Exhaust Sports Auto thanks for the great video.....have you driven an F sport as a comparison to a standard RX 350? I considering both and don’t know if I need the extra bells and whistles and there really isn’t a performance boost with the F sport. The standard in Sport mode would probably be enough of a performance boost for me.

So one last little point about F sport for the 2020 RX. There are two different packages, F sport Appearance and F Sport Performance
I tried the actual F sport Performance which gives you the Variable Gear Ratio Steering, the regular steering is perfect.

Great video, thank you!! Love the Lexus and I absolutely love that wood trim!!
Thanks so much my friend I really appreciate you stopping by and I agree I loved this interior
Do you recommend Fwd or Awd if live in Southern California, LosAngels??
Def test drive both I feel like you can be ok with the FWD because they did a good job with the chassis and suspension so I don't think the car will just peal out on you when turning.
Awd just helps FWD based vehicles have more neutral handling characteristics but you certainly don't seem to need AWD for inclement weather purposes, just handling but try both hope this helps.

looked like there was some trim that fell off in the rear footwell?
Yea a piece of plastic I was too lazy to put it back....also didn't want to break it
If I buy the base model can I add the navigation chip later out of curiosity
Might want to ask a local dealership im not sure about that
Kevin, have you checked out the 2020 BMW M8 yet? Raiti's Ride reviewed it a couple of days ago, 600HP!!
I just bought 2020 rx 350 and added some packages to it. I am thinking of switching out for the f sport. Is there any major difference other than the speedometer being electronic? Do they drive tje same? Is f sport faster?
I would not get the F sport I just drove the RX 450h F sport performance and the F sport package did nothing for it. I would keep your regular car its perfect
@@MeynMotorGroup thanks
Kevin, have you checked out the 2020 Audi S5 Sportsback yet?
I have not but I would love to i only drove a 2018 S4 and a 2018 A5. I like Audis a lot very solid but lacks some soul. But they do comfort and sports pretty well. Thanks again for stopping by Greg! May get Audi press cars in the future once this virus nonsense passes
I bought this car in black with black interior. The white interior feels way too much work to maintain.
Definitely get the hybrid trust me it’s quick and quite and way better on gas
I've heard the ES hybrid was good maybe you're right about the RX but I'm going to have to try it for myself the NX and LS hybrids were a lost cause for me hopefully the ES and RX hybrids are not
They're incredible in the 450h, really such a good car!!
Good morning thanx bro 😎

@@MeynMotorGroup Thank you so much for the quick reply, my friend. I did test drive a 2019 model RX 350 at my local used car dealer a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed the ride quality and like the interior quality.
I will make sure to have a test drive of the 2020 mode to feel the difference. Hopefully I am able to get a good deal! 😄
Thank you again! Looking forward to watching your future videos. 👍
Thank you Kevin.
I think for handling and driving dynamics I would go with Acura MDX. But for the interior definitely RX350
Toyota still struggles with its 8 speed cars being jerky, 8 speed is just too many gears, 6 speed is ideal for smooth power delivery. Look up the class action suit against toyota for its 8 speed transmissions.
I have an NX FWD....it certainly has a bit of lag for take off from a full stop, and handling is not the best. How would you compare the RX to the NX drive?...it it a SIGNIFICANT experience? Minimal difference?
Yea the main difference for me is the ride quality and quietness I find the RX to be more refined I would recommend it if you can spend the extra money or buy one with less options
@@MeynMotorGroup Will look into them a little more. I too am kinda aggressive on driving. I like the Lexus ownership services compared to the old BMW, I just want something with a bit more power. :)
Hmm if power is something you want I think you will be satisfied with the RX but maybe look into an ES 350 as well if you can get away with a sedan it will be lighter weight and have the same engine as an RX so should be a bit faster
This is the best car i ever had.
Nice you got the 2020? RX is def one of my most favorite Lexus products
Exhaust Sports Auto yes 2020 with premium package and navi. Its very quiet and comfortable just like what you said on your video.
That is awesome massive congrats my friend you did great with that car. Enjoy
Exhaust Sports Auto hope you can do a video on Lexus es350 or Es300h
This has what is called Avant Garde styling which I like alot.John Guinto
I have purchased my 2nd RX. First one was a 2020 RX350 FSport. Seats were a little hard, and ride was a little too stiff. Thats the only complaint. Just bought a 2021 RX350, with the luxury package and fully loaded. Much better!
Ride, and drive is flawless. Love this one alot. Prior to the RXs, was driving LS460s. They killed that amazing car, for the LS500. Not impressed at all with it. Bad choice made by Lexus!!
Base model? It looks like it has all the luxury features on that model except the wheels.
Base meaning non F sport
Great review.. As you know I have a 2013 ES350 with only 36k miles now... Amazing car and best is the 3.5L V6 is bulletproof and only takes REGULAR gas, using the min. By min. Graph in the dash , gentle on the gas pedal I average 40+ on the highway... It’s so aerodynamic and low to the ground, definitely a wind cheater... It has Fluted plastic lens cover on the tail end for increased aerodynamics and maybe by the side mirrors too.
This RX-350 looks amazing also... There is a reason why it surpassed the ES350 as the #1 seller for Lexus. The gas mileage will always suffer in a SUV, heavier, taller, wider and less wind resistant is going to give you poorer gas mileage. I owned a piece of SHIT BMW X5 for only 8 months and that was a PIG, I averaged about 12 mpg around city driving during those 8 months and it required Premium gas... Thank God i got rid of it for My ES350 !!
Hey thanks so much for your support on Instagram sir I really appreciate that. You certainly made a good choice with a 2013 ES great cars highly recommended
Exhaust Sports Auto no problem! My pleasure. I thoroughly enjoy your car reviews ! Especially of the Lexus models ! You go into a lot of detail which I love. Very honest and simple. If you ever get a chance to review a C7 stingray I would love to see that That’s gonna be my retirement car in about four years, although I have seen probably every RUclips video on the C7 stingray ! Lol. Edited: I saw on your Instagram page , you did a C7 review, gonna watch now
Exhaust Sports Auto yes my ES350 was a great decision! It’s an amazing car and by far the best I’ve ever owned. I’m 56 driving nearly 40 years and I’ve owned 20 cars in my lifetime ! LEXUS is the BEST !!
If this engine had more torque then it would probably be faster in its 0-60 speed & it would feel faster off the line
Thanks!
Not a problem my friend!
The only thing I dont like is the dashboard design.
I acquired this identical vehicle down to color one month ago. This is the worst vehicle I have owned or driven. I have had other Lexus vehicles so I expected better. Customer Service at Lexus has disappeared entirely which makes the brand a very sorry purchase. My comments would be huge if I mentioned what is wrong with it. Can’t wait to return it. Navigation, can’t find an address. Climate Control, can’t cool down the car. Door locks, maybe they will lock or unlock. Rain sensing wipers work if you are in a hurricane but don’t expect them to come on otherwise. I could go on and on. Alexa...what a joke. She hasn’t awakened yet and she’s been on the job 32 days now. Truly, what a disaster. Thanks for listening.
It’s well known Lexus has one of the worst Navigation, why not use CarPlay?
I have the exactly same color RX 350 ^-^
Love this color! Great choice
I'm getting a U-Haul after watching this.
😆
This isn't even a base model... it's almost fully loaded.....
Base meaning its not an F sport
👍
Great to see you again sir
Rides like a Toyota. Did not like it.
So you don't like cars that ride good? Alright then
