Going to Check out the new TX350 tomorrow
The Lexus dealer we purchased both RX's invited us to show off their new TX350. My wife talked me into going to see the 4-banger turbo tomorrow.
Lexus advertised a v6 Turbo also, but not sure if they released that one yet. Not fond of 4cyl / turbo's and first run models of anything. Also, I'm not fond of living with an unhappy wife.
I'll share my thoughts after the visit.

Minor correction: The Lexus TX550h+ is a plug-in hybrid blending a 3.5-liter V-6 and two electric motors. No turbo in this powertrain variant.

I posted this on the RX 2016-2020 thread for my RX group but was moved to the TX thread. Figure ppl on this thread probably know more what little I found out Saturday.
Lexus had (5) TX350's in (3) trims: Standard, Premium, & Luxury. The TX500h wasn't there which is a 3.5 v6 hybrid with 366hp which sounds interesting, but not to take home with a $70k starting sticker.
Unfortunately, no test drives at this invitation but curious how a 2.4L / turbo with 275hp and 317 of torque which is in the new RX350 also. I find it to be a roomy boxy SUV. I would select the standard without the glass roof.
The price was about the same as my 2020 RX350 Luxury trim. I would like to drive it to see if it drives large and has enough power for the weight, but have to make an appointment for that. Sorry, not much info from a person that traded a 2016 RX350 premium for a 2020 Luxury. I will add that the 2.4L turbo has more torque than my 3.5 v6 RX.

Well, we finally test drove a 2024 RX350h & TX350 Thursday after having a 2016 & 2020 RX.
I was skeptical and was hoping my wife would opt to keep her 2020 RX350 with 23K miles. After driving the TX, it actually drove & rode better than the RX.
So here I am on the TX forum figuring out a new suv.
