The market for sports utility vehicles typically focuses on providing bulk and safety features instead of performance parts and quality design. The Lexus RX350 has found a happy median point between the jaunty compact SUV and the hulking full-sized truck. Under the hood, the RX350 provides better power than its competitors with a 3.5 liter V6 engine that produces 270 horsepower. This offering by Lexus is stingy in fuel efficiency, letting you go 24 miles per gallon during typical highway conditions. You can bolster performance in the RX350 by switching out the standard five speed automatic transmission for a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
The Lexus RX350 melds form and function into one vehicle. The interior is comfortable but functional with five spacious passenger seats. The rear cargo area provides nearly 35 cubic feet of storage space, an amazing figure for this class of SUV. You can tow whatever you cannot fit because it can safely move 3,500 pounds on its rear axel.
