I just had one of these as a loaner while my IS 350 was in for its 10k service…. No BS, I’m VERY seriously considering trading in my IS 350 for one of these! I was “holy shit” impressed by how well this thing rode and drove! It had the SMOOTHEST automatic transmission I’ve EVER experienced. It literally feels like a CVT but it’s not! It was insane and it blew my mind that an automatic GEARED transmission could be engineered THAT smoothly. I was DAMN impressed! Beyond that, the comfort, space and styling of these are absolutely top-notch! The wood steering wheel really stood out and was a very elegant touch! The RX literally felt like a SUV version of my IS! Except WAY smoother and comfy. I’ve never been a SUV guy, but after driving that RX 350, I’m sold! I got my IS back and being completely honest, the next day heading to work I was already missing the size, height and comfort of that RX….
Man I still love this RX, even when the all new 2023 RX is released, I'll be more than happy if i get my hands on this RX you're reviewing, thanks man
This car is so comfortable and has a smooth ride screw the haters
I just traded our 1 year old Genesis GV80 for a 2022 Lexus RX350 Luxury. I’ll be honest…. the style, tech, interior and performance sucks compared to the GV. The RX is however a much nicer ride and the steering is also waaaay better. The main reason we turfed our GV was a very poor dealership experience, poor after-sales service and very questionable reliability in the winter months. The 2 winters we had the GV…. it ran rough in -25 celsius or colder. Hyundai mechanic said that was normal across all of Hyundais V6 engines. 😳 Heat also stopped blowing from the entire passenger side of the car. They currently do not have a fix for this issue and we have been out of heat since mid-December and it is now February…. dealership told me to write into Genesis Canada to get the issue expedited to Korean techs. They had 8 other GV’s in waiting for a fix on the no-heat issue. 😳 My experience has sucked with Genesis and this is only a couple of problems we’ve had. We wanted to go back to Toyota as our previous dealership had been awesome as well as all our Toyotas but we wanted more luxury and got the RX350. We take it home in a month. It definitely doesn’t garnish the attention the GV does.
I have a 2016, looks exactly the same! I appreciate them not changing the design so quickly.
Literally!
so true
i have had the 2016. the 16 does NOt drive anything as nice as the 21 and 2022 model. the car has been updated and the drive is amazing on the 2021 and 2022 (identical)
Anyone else waste time trying to learn what the title reads “Has anything change for 2022? Since I’m trying to decide between a 2021 or a 2022 F-Sport, it would have been nice if you mention what was new in comparison to old models.
Click bait? Not once did you tell me if anything was different!!!
shutup
Also, either typical bait and switch or just lack of basic details to note what trim level we are looking at, since a lot of the features can cost 10’s of thousands of dollars extra.
I was shopping for one of these. It looks like you had the Luxury trim in the video: Triple Beam LED Headlamps, 20-inch wheels, Mark Levinson system, Power-Folding rear seats, Rear Door Sun Shades, Panorama Moonroof, etc. Awesome vehicle.
I got an RX 350 a month ago. Love it. I had leased a genesis suv 80. Hated it. It’s got too many distractions. Gave it back to dealer. The Lexus IS great. Has just about everything. I love the CD player plus the fact that it’s not only push button but has knobs for radio and Volume. It’s also got compartments for keeping change for meters as well as on bottom of doors has even a cut out space for a bottle. Really perfect suv. I had in my past all the latest model vehicles from Jaguar,landrover,Lincoln,hummer2.
Nothing beats the Lexus RX 350.
At first I hesitated. But once I got it and kept discovering it’s simple operated options I fell in love. Thanks Lexus and thank G-d fir sending smart people who created Lexus.
You’re absolutely right. I have the 2020 model and I love everything about it. Best car I’ve ever had!
Car Is ok, terrible service.
Holding my 2021 RX 350 for 6 months now. They can't find a 400 $ part in the known universe.
Horrible company.
Can’t believe it has no digital speedometer. Blows my mind
Thank You for the review!
i love his get to the point explanation. great work.
Huge advantage of RX over its competitors you failed to mention is it runs just fine on regular fuel (not the hybrid I understand). I’m not aware of another premium SUV like this that does not require premium. This will save some real money every year if you drive a lot.
So, true. I was surprised many salespeople don't even know this and its a huge added advantage for the V6. Similar to the hybrid, many don't know they come with 8 year/195 000km warranty (might slightly differ country to country)
Acura and Infiniti also have premium fuel recommended, but not required.
That’s one of the reasons I actually bought this car.
If you have 60k to spend on a so call 'luxury car', then don't be cheap LOL. Engine runs more smoothly & responsive on premium, my personal experience.
True. It runs on regular but I hardly call an RX350 a “premium” vehicle. Ancient tech, awful infotainment (dated as hell), no performance and a mild step up from Toyota in terms of luxury. I wanted to love the RX350 due to its reliability ratings but we ultimately chose the GV80 Prestige and have been extremely happy so far.
Crazy comfort! I am driving the FSport 2022. 2 months ago I had the FSport 2019😊😍nice and smooth
I have a 2016 and love it
I have no desire to get anything else
If something does happen to it, I’ll get another
I’m thinking about going with the 2022. I figure they’ve perfected this body and engine, based on years of feedback and real-world experience.
Literally next year new one is coming out...
Just bought a 2022 rx450h, because I wanted the 3.5L V-6. Last year of this body plus it should be very reliable. Drives great, love the steering very solid
I have the 2021 luxury model. From what I'm seeing here, there's virtually no change in the '22, altho that's not a bad thing whatsoever - hard to top perfection!!! I can only attest that so far this is pretty much the ideal road vehicle.
@@clubmogambo3214 yeah rx is pretty damn cool. And I think in the new ones they put finally acoustic glass everywhere? Cause from the 2017 models or so I hear they're fairly loud on the highway
But still if I'll get an rx, I'll wait for the 2023 upgraded model
@@Lion-hj7ch I have 2021 Rx 350 and its not loud, I think they solve that issue with 2020 model...
Absolutely beautiful, the 0-60 🏁 isn’t fast enough……
Is it true that tge 350 can do regular fuel but the 450H requires premium?
What do you think of the wood trim steering wheel?
You are in the Luxury model ! 2022 was last year for the V6 as its stands now. Lexus could have updated its safety system to its 2.5 version, and offered Digital review mirror as an option. 2022 RX350 is a daily driver, very comfortable and very reliable !
nothing has changed, and its perfectly fine. lexus can keep the RX like this for another decade and i wouldn't be butthurt like others in the comments. its tried , true, and proven. no gimmicks. ya'll want something more, go buy something else.
Exactly.
Hi Ben
This is the luxury package. You should have showed the invoice.
I have the '21 version...........not cheap, I can assure you, but to me, worth every penny.
What package is included in this demo car?
Rear hasn't changed since 2016 but the touchscreen alone makes it worthwhile to get the 2021. Buy it used and you'll be a lot happier
Did he specify any new changes for the 2022? I was trying to find out if the fog lights have been brought back even on the base models?🤔
Exceptional cars- can't wait for the re-design next year!
The redsign is ugly compared to this
Hi what is your interior color called . I order my one today but different interior color
Does this have Apple CarPlay or Android Auto?
I bought RX300, 2.0L 6 speed transmission , AWD for $91,000 in Malaysia. It's crazy high compared with Lexus US price!!
Exactly like here in Australia, theyre so much more than the US
I also don’t like the way you have to reach around the shifter to get all those controls poor positioning if you ask me.
I have Rx360 2016 and ES 350 2016.. And I checked ES 350 Ultra luxury 2022 and nothing much has changed and so RX350 too. Which is great. I do not want all touch screen and strip club kinda lights in my Car.
Sorry but I'd like strip club ambient lighting please
People don't be fooled by your Lexus dealers, when they talk abut Lexus RX 350 year 2022 they advertise so many optionals on this model but your RX 350 dosen't have any of those on it, and your seller doesn't tell you. Unfortunately you will trust the advertisements, and think your RX 350 you pleased should have all typical coverages they advertised, but you will realize the car you purchased has none of those.
hgow about a how to use the GPS and the radio ?
Good review. Just a friendly piece of advice, don’t pan (horizontal movement) camera too fast.
Hey Ahmed, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I've made a few including the RX. If you have time feel free to check it out and let me know :)
You changed your theme from what's changed to evaluating the car. Whats changed in the dash? Please slow down speaking by 25% I had to rewind too much!
Is there a digital speedometer?
So pretty much nothing changed for the 2022
Does it have pilot assist?
Nice video by the way 🔥🔥🔥 but pls can u do the 2022 acura mdx advance vs lexus rx 350 f sport
I thought they got rid of the touchpad.
My dream car
They're soo good!
2:25am as I’m watching this 😊
Woah😮
"Before market adjustment" Good one lol
So, you never answered the question of what, if anything, has changed for MY2022.
Great reliable vehicle however everyone knows it’s time for a redesign. If not they will be left in the dust of the more modern and technologically advanced suvs.I would think that 2023 we will see a great redesign.
A redesign is coming next year
Work at a car company what is more “advanced” self driving doesn’t really work because every so often the car just fouls up big time and the driver dies. Touch screens that OEM specific are the worst thing for the customer because there use to be a universal standard and Tesla broke it so it’s all touch screens and digital… burn in is a real thing just saying.
It’s definitely the best looking in the segment so. But as far as tech, what tech lol what tech other then assistance and safety tech. People say tech but never elaborate on what technology and if you can drive your car having lane keep assist and shit like that is pretty obsolete unless your bad at driving or lazy. But unless the car can do something extraordinary or absolutely cool and it’s useful like pulling up to your house and it senses the car and it automatically opens the garage ect stuff like tht, that’s cool tech. But if all people are talking about is assistance and safety tech and the car parking for you that’s not really something I care about and most people don’t care about.
Can you do a video on the Volvo S90? Not the v90 but the s90 in a gasoline version? Most people have the hybrid review or the station wagon one. But I want to see a s90 gas version.
Yes
@@BenHardyCars best CZcamsr ever!
Does this car have a digital speedometer?
It’s really a nice looking SUV and my dream car too, but how can I afford it if I’m only making just about the minimum wage…❤️❤️❤️
You gotta find a way to make more than minimum wage rather than how to get your dream car with minimum wage

That key fob center console 🤢 is that a CD port?? The RX might be the only new car that has one
Just bought my 3rd RX. (And last now that the took order the V6 engine
I've been looking at used 2022s and haven't seen these wheels on any them.
Key fob looks too cheap like bought from $1 store
Is that a CD slot on the dash??
Yup. CD's do sound better than digital music
It looks weird,the interior is boring with too many little buttons on the dashboard,some of them hard to reach as if they were an afterthought not part of planned design,analog gauges and so on.It should be 10k under the MSRP,not over...great engine and tranny and good reliability record are the only things for potencial buyers to consider.
I’m trying to figure out that you said the 2022 version RX 350 is an eight cylinder I didn’t think they made that in the RX
It's a six cylinder.
Transmission.
waiting for the new tail lights and interior before purchasing a RX
is that next year?
@@jamesle9851 No idea. It should have been this year since NX, LX, LS all got them. Really sucks.
@@veradrummond9002 I was planning to buy this year as my son is taking my 2014 lexus rx, but i’m pretty sure the lx & nx redesigns pave the way for their new vehicles. i’m okay with waiting until mid 2023 but I just hope they go all out like the nx
@@jamesle9851 The Lexus team is coming out with a new design for the '23 RX model. Supposedly a major redesign.
Man If I was manager of that dealer,I wouldn't let you in too hard, nevermind the let you talk about the car
Just bought my 2022 Lexus RX 350 and am trying to get as much information as I can. I wonder if you can talk any faster? At least you do enunciate but you speak too rapidly!
2x that's what I did
This is what happens when GM, Ford & Chrysler takes too much control of their competitor's products in order to effectively compete with it. Things get incredibly FUGLY!
Do you ever say the name of the dealership slow enough that any of your viewers ever get the name?
Link is in description
Does it android auto?
RX didn't get a renewed look like NX?
NX is a complete model update. RX will most likely be next year.
Mr. Hardy - Excellent videos, but I suggest trying to slow down the speed of your speaking.
omg, right? he's like going 75 mile per hour
Wrong check out the blind spot feature
The parking button and hold button are placed in a bad place. When you shift to park basically the shift blocks you hand from reach the button 🤦🏽♂️
It puts the handbrake on automatically so basically you wouldn't need to reach for it anyways
What’s the answer? What changed since 2021?
"has anything changed?"
Proceeds to review old shit...
just a tip for further videos, don't abruptly start yelling at the beginning of a video, made me jump
That gas tank is on empty.
Wait for 2023 if you not in a hurry to buy Lexus
Why are you suggesting we wait? What will be different?
@@wendylees4382 New exterior and new interior
@@wendylees4382 it will most likely be redesigned and sold as a 2023
The review sounds like an info commercial for the vehicle not an honest review. Also I didn't know this car had a self driving feature. You kept taking your hands off the wheel. If you had a front tire have a major sidewall failure the wheel would spin so fast you wouldn't be able to regain control and end up upside down. For a honest review of good things and bad things watch The Car Care Guy and Scotty Kilmer.
czcams.com/video/vVuBoteSD3s/video.html
Some video of tire failure s.
Lmao, unless you’re 105… it takes less than a second to put your hands back on a steering wheel… relax bud…
Good review but the reviewer needs to slow down his speech a bit. Hard for viewers to absorb what he’s saying.
car barely changed in the past 15 years body looks almost same but its a great car i wish i had that instead my camry idk why im watching this
@Simbor Nabor You need math lessons, this car is 5 model years old, not 7. It's been on the market for 6 years though. You're both incorrect.
I’m not impressed with this vehicle at all analog gauges? You have to be kidding my 2022 F1 50 has a 12 inch LCD screen.
Third comment on this thread alone I’ve seen by you lol…. You’re really trying to justify that F150 purchase, eh??
I agree my 2022 F150 lariat had a really nice digital dash
What is exactly "Pretty Crazy" about 3 person memory seats in a Lexus? LOL
I know right, my 13 Lexus es350 has 4 lol
Just got rid of my 2017 RX looks exactly like this one ! Nice confortable ride and kept tell myself reliability but it was just such a boring car to drive for me…
Reliability can be "boring" switch from a Toyota/Lexus and you WILL be in for some excitement... choose wisely 😆
And yet, here you are reminiscing ...
How about road noise at freeway speeds?
They're awesome on the higher speeds, very well insulated. Jim, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I've made a few including the RX. If you have time feel free to check it out and let me know :)
@@SergCarReviews MB c300 sedan is very noisy on the 70mph freeway drives..Tires, I was told but, I think, more aftermarket sound proofing is needed.
@@JamesJMurata5130 The sound insulation on those isn't too great I've noticed. Tires can be it... what are you running now? And what size?
@@SergCarReviews MB c300. 2012
Either I missed it or it’s a typical bait and switch or just lack of basic details to note what trim level we are looking at, since a lot of the features can cost 10’s of thousands dollars extra and are not available on base model. Indeed here is a 2022 review that shows the window sticker of $46,000 and each of the $9,000 in options the car has taking price to over $55,000.

40 miles in a school zone?
Wow a little week on the horsepower I was expecting more! My F150 with a 3.5 L eco-boost of course is turbo charged but it puts out 400 hp and 500 foot pounds of torque this thing is a weakling.
Sure, but your Ford will be in the scrap heap well before the RX is even broken in.
🤦🏻♂️uhhhh yeah…. It’s TWIN turbocharged! Of course it’s got more power…. Have fun paying $70-80k for a F150 for what you get for $55k from a RX! Not to mention the basically worry-free reliability of Lexus….
This comment doesn't make sense, your comparing luxury SUV to a work pickup truck. If you wanna talk numbers, the dodge hell cat is 800 horsepower, so your truck is half of that car. Do you get it?
Sure would have been cool if you answered the question you put in the fucking title!
Hey mate, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I've made a few including the RX. If you have time feel free to check it out and let me know :) Also nothing has changed except a few buttons having different drawings (Aus spec anyways).
Isn't that a Rav 4
This or the Nissan Murano?
Unless money is a primary factor, there's no comparison.
Slow down matey. We will understand you better
Hi Bernie, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I've made a few including the RX. If you have time feel free to check it out and let me know :)
I have to add
Ben is such a cutie
horn-ball
Still lousy outdated low resolution infotainment system and outdated interior. Great power train but too small inside and $10k customer gauge over msrp. No thanks I’ll pass! ( check out the super teched out MDX) nice!
"Super teched out Lol". I like the MDX a lot but it's infotainment screen isn't even a touch screen. Not really what I'd call super techy.
Ah, so you mean the 2.0L turbo engine vs the 3.5L NA bulletproof engine? Or how most people will get in and literally just plug their phone in for Android/Apple car function? I personally use an AUX cord with a Dragonfly DAC in my IS 350 and rarely ever even look at the infotainment screen. Because, you know, I focus on driving my damn car lol….
They still put that cruise control on that lame stalk like my 10 year old Tundra... Come om
Looks a bit dated....
20k mark up wtf
You going too fast. Missed many details

If I were in the market for an SUV which I am not this is definitely off my list.
Lmao, 4th comment I’ve seen by you…. The fuck did Lexus do to you, bud? Lol
Nonsense..
Sadly, the same ugly chicken wire facia and the same horrible seats that you find in any Lexus and Toyota lines.
My daughter has a 2020 and I get backache after 2 hour ride.
I love my 2015 Volvo XC60 and I have 80k of flawless luxury miles in it.
I can drive the Volvo from SF to LA none stop without any back pains. No one makes a more comfortable seat than Volvo.
who cares?
I just bought a 22 RX 350. I actually considered the XC60 but I know people who had issues with them. I had a Lexus before and put 145K on it and never had one issue, and once the warranty had expired, i took it to Toyota to service it for half the price. I'll stick w my Lexus RX but I can see the appeal of the Volvo, Happy Driving.
The Lexus RX is a great family car but I think the Lincoln Aviator is better.
First of all, I'd never trust a Lincoln over a Lexus any day of the week and twice on Sundays, especially over a long period of time. Secondly, the Aviator damn well better be superior because a fully loaded model goes for $25-30k more than its fully loaded Lexus counterpart.
Yeah, I think the Lincoln Aviator is waaaay better.
See if you feel that way at 75k...if it makes it that far?
In the JD Power survey the Aviator did not do too well. But most of the buyers said they loved it! It is beautiful and the interior is spectacular! But foe me, reliability is NO. 1
