2018 Lexus RX 450h F Sport AWD

by Mike Hunter

With a 3.5-liter V6 engine with direct and port fuel injection, the Lexus RX 450 is specially tuned for fuel efficiency and low emissions. Engineered to tap into the power of the robust chassis, the optimized suspension offers precise handling with a strikingly smooth ride. For even greater control, an innovative dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence system (VVT-iW) offers precise engine performance as it reduces emissions and enhances fuel efficiency. 

To forge an even greater connection to the road, the suspension on the RX F SPORT was exclusively tuned for exceptional performance. The RX F Sport is also exclusively equipped with standard Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) and an AVS-enhanced Sport S+ mode so that the RX F Sport delivers thrilling handling, a linear steering feel and a ride as smooth as it is stylish.

The RX F Sport features an exclusive full-color electronic gauge dash that provides real-time information such as G-force metrics, navigation information, power distribution and more.

The styling elevates the edge of the RX F Sport inside and out. The signature mesh grille and F Sport badging announce every arrival as the lower spoiler and F Sport-only 20-inch Dark Graphite alloy wheels enhance the vehicle’s lowered, powerful stance. The interior of the RX F Sport is a sleek and aggressive command center. While its enhanced high-backed bolstered sport seats are engineered to grip driver and passenger through every turn, a heated steering wheel trimmed in perforated leather, aluminum pedals, exclusive paddle shifters and race-inspired instrumentation help satisfy a driver’s craving for performance.
