Car reviews - Lexus - RX - 450hL

Overview

Seven-seat Lexus RX450hL Luxury stretches further than before – but not far enough

28 May 2018

THERE is no denying SUVs have become the people’s choice. A quick look at the sales charts will tell you so. Hence, the pressure further mounts on car-makers to innovate and deliver products that their customers are eagerly anticipating.
 
For Lexus, this is a seven-seat version of its long-established five-seat RX large SUV. Enter the appropriately-named RX L. Its formula on paper is quite simple: add extra space to the cabin to accommodate a third row while maintaining the existing wheelbase.
 
However, is this a good formula? More importantly, has the Japanese company managed to do the impossible and make seven go into five? We tested the RX L in the base hybrid-powered RX450hL Luxury form to find out.
