The 2015 Lexus RX for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2015 Lexus RX; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2015 Lexus RX, here are the facts that matter.
What to check on the RX
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The numbers in plain words
The powertrain here is the 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 24 litres, from its 8.0 L/100 km rating. In money, 1,000 km costs about $124 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles.
Practical details
It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.
Who it is for
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
Try before you buy
Try the RX on your commute, then decide. Drive the RX on your commute before you commit to it. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.40 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $124 at our price setting.
Which one to look for
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Your move
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy
