September’s the month to check out a new vehicle
THE RX is said to be the very first luxury crossover SUV to proudly wear the Lexus badge. When it debuted in 1998, it “laid the foundation for what would be a highly successful nameplate.” In the Philippine market, the RX remains the brand’s most popular model.
LEXUS
“The RX fits right into an active lifestyle with a sophisticated blend of the comfort of a luxury car and the driving pleasure and added convenience of a high-riding SUV. It asserts its presence on a variety of roads and diverse driving conditions,” declared Lexus Philippines in a release. This month, Lexus offers zero interest deals on RX models, payable over 36 months.
The RX 350 (P4.438 million) blends the comfort of a luxury car with the driving pleasure and added convenience of a high-riding SUV. Powered by a 3.5-liter V6 direct-injection engine mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, it gets Adaptive Variable Suspension which continually adjusts shock absorber damping rates in real time.
The RX 350 F Sport (P4.998 million) shares the spirit of the LFA supercar. This model gets F Sport dials with full-length illuminated needles. The cabin is decked out in dimpled leather with an exclusive perforated finish on the steering wheel and shift knob. It also receives aluminum pedals exclusive to F Sport models.
The RX 450h (P5.238 million) features Lexus Hybrid Drive which draws power from both electric and petrol motors, resulting in instant torque and rapid acceleration. An EV drive mode at slow speeds promises a silent and emission-free drive. A self-charging full hybrid system features a 3.5-liter direct injection V6 gas engine, and boasts a total system output of 308hp. Key components and control systems in the Lexus Hybrid Drive System were improved and re-engineered to deliver class-leading fuel economy, minimal emissions, and excellent on-road performance.
The RX 350L (P4.918 million) is the seven-seater version of the RX. The third row has an automatic slide function and can be easily adjusted to achieve the optimal legroom. Third-row passengers also have the luxury of their own climate controls.
