The new Lexus RX350h is like no other midsize luxury SUV because of its hybrid powertrain, but is that a good thing?
Having less power doesn't normally excite us, but the 2023 Lexus RX350h is different. The new hybrid luxury SUV is the spiritual successor to the last-gen RX450h model, which was more powerful but also less efficient and affordable. That's why the practical compromise presented by the 2023 RX350h intrigues us. Will we miss the extra power? One thing is certain, the 2023 RX350h has more power than any direct competitors, but only because it has none.
Mated to a CVT that provides smooth responses, the RX350h doesn't have the most pleasant engine note at wide-open throttle. Again, though, the RX350h isn't the family athlete; take it easy and the more affordable hybrid makes more sense. Lexus expects EPA-rated efficiency at 37/34 mpg city/highway. Compare against the 2023 RX 350 AWD's 21/28 mpg or the last-gen 2022 RX450h's 31/28 mpg, and you begin to see why the RX350h seems like it hits the sweet spot.
