The 2001 Lexus RX: before you buy
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2001 Lexus RX for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. This page helps you judge the 2001 Lexus RX before you buy one anywhere.
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. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
The figures, translated
The powertrain to know here is the 3.0L 6-cylinder, with all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
It is rated 13.1 L/100 km combined: about 39 litres every 300 km. In money, 1,000 km costs about $203.10 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,700 a year for 15,000 miles.
How big it is
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. Luggage space is 906 litres, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Good uses for the RX
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country.
A longer test drive
A test week in the RX tells you more than any review. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
What it costs to run
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $20.31 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $203.10 at our price setting.
Year and trim
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. 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.
