As apparent from the table, the RX F Sport isn't supposed to be the fastest in the class, but it performs better than the regular trim. Speaking of the fastest, the Audi Q5 beats the Bimmer by a margin and stands tall as the quickest car in the class.

The driving experience is one of the better qualities of this vehicle. Also, it reduces the lean of the car when it drives into curves, which is great as it reduces the chances of rollovers or tire screeches.

Overall, the ride is comfortable and composed as well. However, don't expect it to give you a nice off-roading experience as well because it isn't designed to prioritize that either. This is because the V6 underneath the hood consumes a lot of fuel pretty quickly. The naturally aspirated one does give you the power, but the only downside is that it reduces the fuel economy drastically.

This is not a lot to work with, but is at par with the competitors. On top of that, it will come with a Looking at the big picture, for the kind of performance you get, the fuel economy is not that bad. As compared to the competition, the Lexus RX F Sport is expected to be at par with the competitors. The interiors are expected to see quite the change. The current design looks premium and classy enough to interest buyers. With a leather-covered cabin, the Lexus RX F Sport has always felt like a luxurious vehicle, and with the convenience feature on the option, the overall appeal of the cabin increases.

There has been no information regarding the updates, but we do expect a redesigned dashboard. Most of the materials used inside the cabin is going to remain the same as it is high quality and is appreciated by the consumers as well.

With the wooden elements on the steering wheel and metal accents on the dashboard, the design seems to be aesthetic. Moving on to comfort, the seating arrangement is nice and hence it doesn't feel cramped at all. With an upright seating position and great padding, your back is well rested on quality leather-wrapped foam. Also, the bolstering is done to keep you feeling snuggly enough.

The seats are power-adjustable in the front row and the rear row features a bench. The interior also houses great comfort features like automatic temperature control, heated steering and seating optional , soft-touch material on the board and the dash, and much more.

The interiors are premium to experience and seem well worth the price. The standard RX is a two-row, five-seat affair, but there's also an extended-length L model that seats up to seven riders across three rows. Inside, the RX offers a plush cabin with plenty of technology features and premium finishes appropriate for this segment of compact luxury SUVs.

If you're looking for smooth-riding luxury with a practical twist, the RX is a great option, but there's more fun to be had with one of the Lexus's European rivals. The RX receives only minor changes for , including newly standard fog lamps and a trio of new colors—Cloudburst Gray, Iridium, and Grecian Water. The Black Line special edition models return for with another limited examples all sporting darkened exterior trim, black wheels, and a matching Zero Halliburton luggage set.

Of the RX's many option packages, we'd keep it simple and add only the Navigation package; it features a larger Lexus hasn't released official pricing yet, so we've estimated that above.

Our RX test vehicle was equipped with all-wheel drive and managed an adequate—but slow for the segment—run of 6. The RXh is one of the segment's few hybrids, but it too required longer than average to reach 60 mph from rest. What the RX does best is ride comfortably; it irons out rough stretches of road and delivers a compliant ride. The cabin remains quiet and well isolated from the road, making the RX an excellent long-distance cruiser.

Fuel efficiency is where the RX shines, and not just because it's offered with an optional hybrid powertrain that's rated as high as 31 mpg city and 28 mpg highway.
