2023 RX engine specs have been released, will be interesting if next gen GX will go on RX/NX engine lineup or LX/Tundra/Sequoia

RX line up

RX350 - 2.4L inline 4 Turbo, 275hp/317lb-ft (8speed)
RX350h - 2.5L inline 4 hybrid, 246hp/233lb-ft (ECVT)
RX450h - supposed to be like Rav4 Prime (plug in hybrid)
RX500h - 2.4L inline 4 Turbo + Lexus hybrid electric drive, 367hp/406lb-ft (6speed)

 

This will be just fine in a Hybrid GX. All the other powertrains from the RX can be ignored

 

I thought the general consensus was that it would get de-tuned version of the 3.5 found in the Tundra SR?

 

Strange. I got an email from Lexus saying that there will be an all-electric RX.

 

Maybe coming later as Toyota is pushing full EV lineup.

 

But it is so much fun!!

 

Never said you shouldnt :P

 

 

That’s big news if it’s true. I thought 23MY would be the final year for the 150 platform.
The only time I remember Toyota skipping a model year is Scion xB from 2006 to 2008MY.

 

Yeah it'd be interesting. I would have bet anything on the new infotainment being around for at least 2 MY as redoing it for a single MY just seems like a huge waste of time and money by Lexus.

 

If true, I'm really glad I got in on the V8.

 

Me too x1000000!

 

I didn't follow. Seemed like he indicated at 00:52 that any orders that came in after Jul 24 of '22 would be cancelled. Did he mean that or anything after Jan '24 23? Else that mean there are no more GX460's being made other than for orders than came in before Jan '24th?

 

I've said this in other threads here before, and I stand by my opinion today, I agree with KK that this GX (especially an untainted/un-modded one) will become very desirable. I'm also glad the next gen will be coming soon. If it's good, I don't know... maybe I'll get one of those, too. I might not agree in the direction vehicles in general are going, but it could still be cool. However, for the one car I would like to keep until I'm old and grey, it's my '22 GX.

 

I may have something about '23 in about a week and it isn't that there won't be a '23 model year. Will it be a short run? I can't say.
