Buying the 2010 Lexus RX
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2010 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. The 2010 Lexus RX for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the RX
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The figures, translated
It uses the 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid and front-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Combined fuel use is 7.8 L/100 km: about 23 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $120.90 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Good uses for the RX
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
What to expect from the RX
As an SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.
Try before you buy
Rent the RX for a week and see how it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Which one to look for
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. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
What it costs to run
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $120.90 at our price setting.
