WHICH TRIMS AND FEATURES ARE AVAILABLE FOR THE 2019 RX?
The following trim levels are available from the 2019 Lexus RX: RX: The entry-level trim lets you define your ideal driving position with a 10-way power driver seat and a steering will that power tilts and telescopes. Ambient lighting lets you soothe the mood inside the passenger cabin. RX F Sport: To inspire your track dreams, the dashboard comes with race-inspired gauges and instruments. The front end is distinguished by signature upper and lower grille inserts, a unique bumper, and special F Sport badging. RX Hybrid: You get the eco-friendliness of electric power combined with the range and performance of a gas engine without having to find a plug-in power port to recharge. RXL: Adding a third row, this trim can handle up to seven passengers. To increase carrying capacity, the third-row seat backs fold in a 50-50 split. RXL Hybrid: The spaciousness of three-row seating is now available with a fuel-sipping hybrid engine.
TWO POWERFUL ENGINES THAT OFFER UNLIMITED POSSIBILITIES
The first of the two engine choices for the 2019 Lexus RX is the 3.5L Direct and Port Fuel Injection V6 that generates 295 horsepower by relying on Variable Valve Timing with intelligence to minimize emissions and maximize efficiency. It gets an EPA-estimated 27 highway MPG while launching from 0 to 60 MPH in only 7.7 seconds. Its mated 8-speed automatic transmission, which can have paddle shifters, improves torque at the low end. The second is a hybrid variant that uses electric motors, a 3.5L V6, and Continuously Variable Transmission that is electronically controlled. Acceleration is at 7.9 seconds from 0 to 60 MPH with 308 horsepower and a combined fuel efficiency of 30 MPG. This powerplant includes Intelligent Shift Control that can monitor for travel on a slope to then optimize engine responsiveness. You can also choose manual shifting when you want a greater feel of the road.
IS THE LEXUS RX SAFE?
The technology protects you and your passengers starting with the backup camera that engages when you shift into reverse. A view of the scene behind you is projected on the dash screen along with grid lines so you can judge where you’re headed and how close you are to potential hazards. Warning you of any vehicles crossing your path is Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. To prevent collisions, Rear Cross-Traffic Braking can stop your vehicle. During inclement weather, the available Rain-Sensing Wipers activate on the first sign of rain. The Windshield Wiper De-Icer uses heating wipers embedded around the windshield to prevent your wipers from freezing to the glass. You’ll see more quickly around corners when the available LED cornering fog lamps improve visibility by shifting their lights in the direction that you’re turning. During all kinds of weather, Vehicle Stability Control modulates engine torque and applies the brakes to individual wheels when it detects that your wheels are slipping. It coordinated with the Anti-lock Braking System and Traction Control so that you maintain a firm grip on the road even when conditions are slippery. If you do get into an accident, you’re protected by crumple zones in the front and rear that compress to divert crash energy away from the occupants. Up to 10 airbags inflate depending on whether they detect an empty front-passenger seat or a child. Lexus Enform Safety Connect can send help based on your GPS location even if you are disabled or unconscious. You get a complimentary subscription to this life-saver for the first 10 years that you own your vehicle.
