The Lexus RX has been America’s best-selling luxury SUV since its introduction in 1998 and has increased its power and numerical name with each generation. As with many alpha- numerically named vehicles, the number indicates engine size.

Toyota Motor Sales, USA, Inc. (TMS), announced that it will conduct a voluntary safety recall involving approximately 45,500 Highlander Hybrid and 36,700 Lexus RX 400h vehicles sold in the U.S. No other Toyota or Lexus vehicles are involved.

So here I am ranting about Lexus in one thread and we get this car as a loaner and now I’m going to be raving about Lexus. We all know the story of the RXh, it was the worlds first luxury hybrid and the 450h extends that.

The 2011 Lexus RX review is sure to impress those interested in purchasing a new Lexus. The new line of RX vehicles are certified ultra-low emission vehicles (ULEV II), and the hybrid versions are certified as super ultra-low emission vehicles (SULEV II).

Lexus led the luxury segment in the Edmunds.com inaugural Best Retained Value Awards. Lexus won the 2011 brand award for luxury makes and took four categories earning twice as many awards than the next luxury brand.
