Buying the 2023 Lexus RX
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2023 Lexus RX for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2023 Lexus RX, here are the facts that matter.
Recalls and complaints
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
The numbers in plain words
The powertrain to know here is the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, with all-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
Fuel use is rated 6.5 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 20 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $100.80 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What the RX is like
The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
When the RX makes sense
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Rent it for a week first
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Try the RX on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Which one to look for
Within the 2023 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Your move
A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2023 Lexus RX from us first.
