Sorry for newb question. Picked up 2020 rx350 today and was playing with the parking brake at dealership. I am 99% sure I disengaged before leaving but the brakes smelled like the parking brake was still on. Then when I parked I saw the e brake back on. Was the smell from new brakes being broken in?? Or did I somehow override the auto ebrake?

The auto brake re-applies after you go to Park if it's on auto. Probably just new car smells. If the brake is on (set manually) you get a warning and my experience is the car won't move.

I leave the AUTO setting disabled. I only engage the parking brake on a hill.
