    You are complaining that the Lexus gives you in the interior an 'old fashion'feel.....I don't understand. Most German cars are so 'modern' that you have to use the screen to turn up the radio!!! I prefer old fashioned than....

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před rokem +16

      Me too. Let me be specific: manual dials yes please. But outdated screen visualization and „stairs“ shifting lever and jiggly middle console no. There are examples on the market which show modern style but still keep manual dials. I agree that recent Mercedes are worse in user interface. Audi e.g. still manages to combine both

      The problem is some people want Lexus to imitate German cars. If you want German cars, go for them. Let those who prefer Lexus be. Even BMW is different from Mercedes or Audi. A car cannot be the best in everything. It will be best in some aspects but not in others. The overall experience is what matters for an individual. In most cases, while the German cars are generally as good as Lexus, what some people like is just the badge, three point star or beemer. Others are more objective and they ignore the brand and look for substance that matters to them. In the end, it’s a personal choice.

  • @PaulMeier-cu3ds
    @PaulMeier-cu3ds Před rokem +4

    A suggestion for a comparison review.
    I would find it interesting to see this Lexus and any hybrid EV derivatives compared with the Nissan Ariya 4WD and the Mazda CX60. The reason why it would be interesting is that these high trim Japanese models are taking different decisions about interiors and UI/UX design from their German equivalents.
    On the engineering front, they are also pursuing less high tech suspension setups than the German marques, usually plain vanilla torque vectoring, and so far as I know no 4W steering. Are they worth the money?
    An area which is not yet widely reported is how well manufacturers are doing recuperation of power to batteries. It would be especially interesting to know how the three Japanese manufacturers compare in this technology, and then see how they compare with their German equivalents. On recuperation I was especially impressed with the review of one of the AMG hybrids which was using the recuperation technology from Mercedes’ involvement in F1. I think there is a story to tell on how advances in recuperation may make smaller batteries more useful. However I am in no position to find out for myself, so Thomas over to you.

  • @protonjicari5990
    @protonjicari5990 Před rokem +10

    I dont know why but I think I prefer the design of Mazda now rather than this Lexus. I’m referring to cx60. The proportion of the CX60 just reminds me of BMW X5 but on Mazda’s term.

    I had a 2023 RX 350 F Sport. Drove it for about 2300 miles and I got a Check Engine light. Took it to the dealer and they could not fix it after 3 days of trying and consulting with Lexus Tech Support.. The offered me a new RX 500h at a very good price while paying off my lease on the defective RX.. I took it and so far so good. Lexus has recognized this Check Engine light issue on a small amount of vehicles but as of this date (Sept 3, 2023) there is not ETA on a fix. I thought all of you would be interested.

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před 11 měsíci

    • @JB19504
      @JB19504 Před 11 měsíci +1

      Yes. I was really disappointed as I have owned about 10 Lexuses and have never had an issue remotely as bad as this. I was quite put out aqt first as the dealer was highballing me on the replacement. He kind of changed his tune as soon as I told him to keep the vehicle as long as it took for a fix it and I would keep the loaner and I would talk to my lawyer, as they would not let me out of my lease completely. They said, "Well, your vehicle is technically a used car." So that's when I told them to keep it and fix it and I would talk to a lawyer. Then they came back with a much reduced price and offered to pay my first month of the lease. All in all, it was not a pleasant experience. Lexus of Towson MD if you are interested.

    The new RX has everything but the obvious. Finally, wireless Apple CarPlay, a touchscreen you can reach, gorgeous exterior styling with proportions that are no longer clownish. They could very easily create an RX-F, by importing the supra’s twin scroll turbo I-6 (which is really BMWs). Even in this tested version, which is quick and engaging, to be sure, it will never be as smooth as a 6 cylinder engine.

Today Mercedes up until recently were using Renault engines in their cars and charging a fortune for them. The Lexus Autogefuhl are testing is a pre production one.

    The infotainment screen looks very out of place. The noon-symmetrical shape and the start button. I think Lexus just moved the screen forward from the previous generation.

    I had very high expectations for this RX, but I’m a little disappointed by the overall “packaging”: the digital gauges don’t have a map (which is the only useful thing of digital instruments IMO), the manual sunshade is less premium (and also less safe to operate) than an electric one, some interior finishes don’t seem to be very high quality and the lack of a ski-passage in the trunk (or a 40/20/40 folding) is simply unacceptable for a 100k€ big luxury AWD SUV.
    I appreciate the new “direct4” system which is paired with a real gearbox, however I’m still not sure about the 4 cylinders turbo engine.

      Hi Michele, you might be blown if you test drive one yourself rather than someone opinion on CZcams. I drove the 500 FSport performance earlier today it was exhilarating and you won’t know it’s got a 4cylinder ice. The torque and the way the six speed gearbox was mated ensures a seat hugging performance.
