Grand SUV and Luxury SUV. Apparently, RX stands for Radiant Crossover. Random.

I honestly think they just made up the name after the fact since IS just flowed better with ES, GS, and LS. "Intelligent Sport" kind of doesn't make sense. And they couldn't just throw the word "Sedan" in there since there's a coupe version.

^^The IS came out a while ago way before the coupe was even considered.
