2016 Lexus RX 450h


The arrival of the 2015 Lexus RX 450h marks an achievement of sorts for the Toyota subsidiary. After all, it was one of the first to offer this package of luxury, performance and fuel efficiency in the SUV market so it figures that its position as a market leader hasn’t changed that much in the decade or so that its been around.
For the 2015 model, Lexus continues in that tradition, presenting an SUV that combines the fuel economy of a compact sedan, the power of a V-8 and the comforts of a luxury vehicle all rolled into one.
This is the 450h and even with the rather lack of updates on the way it looks, you can excuse the company for that given how relatively new the refreshed package really is.
The 2015 Lexus RX 450h is set to remind us why Lexus knows its hybrids the same way it knows how to build premium performance for its performance line.


The introduction of Lexus’ spindle grille to the 2014 RX 450h was about as big a change as you could’ve gotten for the midsized hybrid SUV. And that was last year. This year, with the unveiling of the 2015 RX 450h, Lexus only added some minor updates to the SUV, and the exterior bears little of it.
To be fair, all the things that made last year’s refresh are still there, including the redesigned headlights that customers can actually order in either High Intensity Discharge (HID) or Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology. Even the rear lamps were redesigned to be stronger and carry a more sweeping horizontal emphasis.
A new Luxury Package is also set to become available for the 2015 model, offering a number of new options, including a set of 19-inch, triple-split five-spoke wheels with light gray paint and machined finish.
