Interesting. Seems like they are adding F-Sport design elements to other trim lines? The lineup seems confusing.
Would be nice if they included the manual shift back with the gear selector, rather than exclusively as paddle shifters.
Gotta admit, I accidentally put that p.o.s. in neutral driving down the road. My hand goes to it naturally when I put my arm on the arm rest and I moved it left without realizing.
It was cool back when Audi did Nardo Gray a decade ago, now everyone has that color and it’s been overdone.
I couldn't agree more, now you can get Kia/Hyundai or even Honda's in Nardo Gray!! Why is Lexus always late to party!! Come on Lexus release ultra sonic blue, at least that is true Lexus color and is avail overseas in RX. Lets be honest they are doing anything to sell 500h, maybe if they released new transmission with it and some wider tires some would sell.
This is basically what they did with prior generation with 2020 refresh, they released appearance F-sport package. Which I get because at least then you can get 350h with appearance, but whole point of F-sport is AVS,6 piston brakes and seats and transmission definitely tuned different. As ECU in manual has different software version for real F-sport. I guess there looking at Germans who do the same thing with fake Audi S line, Benz AMG and BMW M appearance package. It looks nice, but the point to have to internal parts of it.
Interesting. I ordered mine 2 weeks ago (I live in Italy). Don't know if I'll have the 2025 model or not, what u think?
Another question: I think the most important change is the 12.3 multi-information display (MID) which will become standard across the lineup. As you know, does this new display give the possibility to visualize maps on the screen? It would be nice...
Ciao from Italy
As @Urlink said, I can't unsee it now from electrical panels! I thought it would be great initially due to contrast, but it's a flat-color that's so overdone, and really like Cloudburst Gray with the hint of blue since that has way more depth.

This was exactly what I was hoping for in the 2025 models and seems like Lexus finally ported it from the TX/Crown. But to answer the question about the new display - yes, with a caveat, that it mostly renders a portion of the map only through the on-board navigation satellite maps (i.e. not Apple/Google Maps when navigating an active route). Somewhat limited compared to other manufactures where it's the map of the entire MID, oh well maybe in a future software update but highly doubt it. This feature was what I was most excited for due to the customizability, and so today had to review what the TX was like for reference and capability, time mark of 1:49:00:
