2017 Lexus RX Used Price Estimates

Lexus recently overhauled the entire RX line giving it a more aggressive exterior and a more fluid interior design. Changes were made to the suspension and drivetrain as well, but the 2017 Lexus RX 350 remains a luxury SUV that places an emphasis on comfort and confidence over blistering performance. We’re not saying the Lexus can’t handle tight turns or twisting back roads, but if you’re seeking razor-sharp reflexes, a step up to the F Sport trim is in order. Equipped with Lexus’ selectable drive-mode system, the F Sport adds a Sport S+ setting that firms up steering feedback and quickens throttle response. The RX’s V6 is both powerful and impressively smooth, matched to an 8-speed automatic that should be the standard by which all automatics are judged. The RX 450h hybrid combines an electric motor with the V6 delivering even more horsepower and torque with superior fuel economy.

“USE THE FORCE” LIFTGATE The 2017 Lexus RX 350 and RX 450h’s power-operated rear hatch can be activated simply by placing one’s hand near the Lexus badge. You’ll love it for the convenience and your kids will love it when you tell them you’re using the Force for good and not evil. LEXUS RX 450H F SPORT With the F Sport package teamed to the hybrid platform, the RX becomes a performance SUV with exceptional handling and fuel-economy numbers of which its rivals can only dream.

The 2017 Lexus RX interior boasts its own smooth style. Last year’s redesign saw the gear selector moved from the center dash to a spot in the console below. The design opens space in the dash for easy-to-access climate and audio controls. The mouse controller just south of the gear selector is easier to operate. The seats are plush, and there is plenty of legroom in back. Beware of rear blind spots from the narrow roof design. Cargo space is impressive, with over 18 cubic feet behind the rear seats. That number expands to over 56 cubic feet with rear seats folded.

Terms like “bold,” “aggressive” and “highly styled” all describe the 2017 Lexus RX’s look. “Polarizing” is another. Keeping with the rest of the Lexus lineup, it begins with a gaping “spindle” grille up front, fluid headlight housings with LED lights, a high beltline, and the 2017 RX’s most divisive element: a flowing, blacked-out C-pillar behind the rear windows. This element -- also in use on vehicles like the Nissan Murano -- makes the Lexus’ roof appear to float. You’ll like it or you won’t. Lexus acknowledges the new RX is a “dramatic re-imagining” which it hopes will appeal to “soccer dads, too.”

The Lexus RX has always been well-equipped, and the latest model is no different. Even a base RX comes with a power tailgate, a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, a power-adjustable steering wheel, a faux-leather interior, rain-sensing wipers, dual-zone climate control, a rearview camera, a HomeLink garage-door opener, 18-inch wheels, and the Lexus Safety System + with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, auto high beams and lane-departure alert. The standard infotainment system includes an 8-inch command screen, 9-speaker audio with USB, Bluetooth, Micro SD card slot and auxiliary input, and Siri Eyes Free for Apple iPhones.

All-wheel drive is optional on the RX 350 and standard on the RX 450h hybrid. F Sport models can now be ordered with front-wheel drive. Other options include leather seating, a power moonroof, a heated steering wheel, heated/ventilated front seats, the touch-free tailgate, navigation, an upgraded 12.3-inch display, and a fantastic-sounding 15-speaker Mark Levinson audio system. F Sport models add 20-inch wheels, paddle shifters, adaptive variable suspension, and unique front and rear fascias. A rear-seat entertainment system with DVD player and dual screens is also available.

The 2017 RX 350 uses Lexus’ tried-and-true 3.5-liter V6. The engine has recently been enhanced with new cylinder-head design, reshaped intake ports and more. The result is a bump in horsepower -- from 270 to 295, and improved fuel economy. Unlike some luxury SUV rivals, this one runs just fine on regular 87-octane unleaded gasoline. The most efficient Lexus RX remains the 450h hybrid, which pairs the 3.5-liter V6 with a battery-electric powertrain and standard AWD. Like a standard Prius, no plugging in is required, but premium unleaded gasoline is recommended. The 2017 RX 450h has total output of 308 horsepower and delivers up to 31 mpg. The Lexus RX’s towing capacity is 3,500 pounds. 3.5-liter V6 (RX 350) 295 horsepower @ 6,300 rpm 267 lb-ft of torque @ 4,700 rpm EPA city/highway fuel economy: 20/27 mpg (FWD), 19/26 mpg (AWD) 3.5-liter V6 + 123-kW electric motor (RX 450h) 259 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm (gasoline engine only) Total system horsepower: 308 247 lb-ft of torque @ 4,800 rpm (gasoline engine only) EPA city/highway fuel economy: 31/28 mpg (AWD) Note: Due to changes in EPA testing to more effectively reflect real-world conditions, some 2017 models show slightly lower fuel-economy scores than their 2016 versions.
