Considering adding another vehicle to our garage. Looking at a cpo 2021-22 rx or rxl. How do they compare and is the head and legroom the same in the 1st and 2nd row? Is 21-22 go years to choose from for reliability, comfort, and ride quality?I lean towards these years as opposed to the 24 due to wanting the v6.

lastly, for anyone who has driven or owned both how does the ride, drive, and comfort on the Rx compare to the gx?

21/22 are RX are great cars, you get touchscreen infotainment and wired carplay. Headroom is about the same 1st and second row. Comfort and ride quality are good, I dont think its much different compared to previous model years. Avoid F sport if you want comfort, its stiffer a bit I think for no real benefit. Reliability is generally considered good, I would say 21/22 should reliable as they are last years of that style, so problems worked out by then. I agree, the 21/22 while previous gen, are much higher quality then the new body style, more luxurious, honestly better materials, but infotainment and tech are not as up to date. The RX vs RXL is mainly more cargo space which is nice, The third row is very tiny. You also do get rear AC, which augments overall AC performance. Also if you care, the RXL are all made in Japan, regular RX are made in Canada.

GX is totally different, it has similar interior space but slightly narrower and much taller. You sit much higher up and its more rugged and heavier due to body on frame construction. However, ride and comfort while fine are not as good as the RX for pure comfort. GX rides like a nice truck.

@Elipscombs I would like to add that the 2020, 2021 and 2022 are all the same. There were no changes other than an option or two on the 2020 became standard on the 21 and 22. Model year 2020 was the last year for changes. Also please consider the hybrid version, give it a test drive. One more thing, there are 3 versions, each with more options added; Base, Premium and Luxury.
