2020 Lexus RX 350

The pioneer of the luxury crossover segment is receiving an update -- inside and out -- for the 2020 model year. The new 2020 Lexus RX and RXL three row enhance both their elegance and captivating appeal through improved driving dynamics, an updated Lexus Multimedia System, additional standard safety features and elevated styling that bring a new sophistication to the RX lineup.

All 2020 Lexus RX models feature updated exterior styling that includes revised front and rear fascias and a new standard 18-inch wheel design. Triple-beam LED headlamps have also been redesigned as an option. Inside, an available 12.3-inch touchscreen paired with the remote touch pad supports added dynamic voice and navigation functionality.

Starting with the signature grille, a symbol of the Lexus brand and distinctive "face" of the vehicle, the designers created an elaborate look based on an L-motif. Each individual block has a different shape and angle to create a varying form that balances a strong yet elegant image. The angles of the grille surround are also echoed by the angles used at each corner of the bumper to smooth the visual flow across the front.

Both the front and rear stabilizer bars are now hollow to reduce weight, yet their thicker diameters and reinforced bushings help reduce body roll and improve steering response. The shock absorbers have been re-tuned to work with the stiffer roll bars, while upgraded dampers feature a new friction control device that helps to control high frequency vibrations for a smoother ride. To further refine the 2020 Lexus RX responsiveness, a stiffer suspension design reduces the noise and vibration from the road.

The 3.5-liter V6 employs the advanced D-4S fuel injection system, which combines direct and port fuel injection systems. The V6 offers 295 horsepower and 267 lb.-ft. of torque, with performance and efficiency optimized by an eight-speed automatic transmission.
