We are finding that we need to get used to the floor mounted gas pedal on RX Fsport, especially in stop/go traffic.
Our 2010 RX had the pedal up in the air.
Our 2016 NX FSport has pedal in the air.
Anyone know a back story why RX gas pedal is so different from previous RX and current NX?
Sorry I am not using technical terms, but curious if anyone else noticed.

My guess would be to prevent the possibility of a mat getting caught underneath the pedal. It's better than having it shaved like they did on my '10. The surface was small to begin with. The design is slightly awkward but much better.

i did think it was because of the mat issue, but weird 2016 NX designed with pedal in the air.
Just a matter getting used to in two different cars. thanks

I asked the Lexus dealer why the changed and they said that it WAS to stop the mat issue.

Wow, I didn't even notice our gas pedals were like that until I saw this post and looked
It makes sense for the floormat's after all the recall/issues they have had previously to just do it that way.
