What should I look for when buying a used Lexus RX?

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: Lexus Safety System+ 3.0
• Infotainment: 9.8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Fuel efficiency: The FWD RX 350 estimated by the EPA to return 25 mpg in combined city and highway driving while the AWD model drops to 24 mpg. The hybrid RX 350h will only set you back $52,100, and it comes standard with AWD. Its combined fuel efficiency is estimated at an impressive 36 mpg. The new plug-in hybrid RX 450h+ that we evaluated has a starting price of $70,580, making it the priciest model in the lineup. Its 35-mpg combined fuel economy estimate compares well to the standard hybrid's figure and with 37 miles of electric-only range, it could be a good fit for those with consistent access to chargers.

Which Lexus RX trim should I buy?

The 2024 Lexus RX offers these trims:

• RX 350: The base model brings the turbocharged 2.4-liter engine, eight-speed automatic transmission, and the core comfort-focused RX experience.
• RX 350h: The hybrid adds standard AWD and stronger fuel efficiency, making it the best-value choice for many shoppers.
• RX 450h+: The plug-in hybrid adds 304 hp, an 18.1-kWh battery pack, and up to 37 miles of electric-only range for buyers who can charge regularly.
• RX 500h F Sport Performance: This performance-oriented model adds 366 hp, a six-speed automatic transmission, and the most powerful setup in the lineup.

What Lexus RX do most buyers choose?

The Lexus RX years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2025.

Higher-volume years usually give you more shopping choice, which can make it easier to compare trims, colors, and equipment. They also tend to be the years most buyers gravitate toward because they balance availability with strong deal percentages.

What is the Lexus RX's resale value?

Most model years are moving lower year over year, which is good news if you're shopping used and want more room to negotiate. The biggest drops are concentrated in the newer years, while the older years are changing more gradually. That pattern suggests you can find better value across much of the lineup, especially if you're open to recent used examples.

The 2016 model year is holding steady, with prices close to flat year-over-year.

The 2016, 2015, and 2021 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Should I buy a used Lexus RX now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2025 model is at −2.5% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −6.46%.
• Deal availability: The 2025 model has 39.6% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 39.2%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $48,343. The Lexus RX offers a calm, comfortable, and upscale driving experience that has long defined the model.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The 2024 Lexus RX is offered in four distinct models, starting with the base RX 350. It's powered by a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 275 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque. The RX 350h is the hybrid version with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder which makes 246 hp and 233 lb-ft of torque that is routed through a continuously variable transmission (CVT), with standard AWD. The RX 500h F Sport Performance represents the sporty side of the RX lineup, with a turbo 2.4-liter inline-four combining with the hybrid powertrain to produce 366 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque. We drove the plug-in hybrid RX 450h+ which is new for 2024. It takes the RX 350h's powertrain and adds a much larger 18.1-kWh battery pack. Power output is increased to 304 hp and the EPA estimates it can return up to 37 miles of electric-only range on a full charge.
• Tech: The new infotainment system is much more conventional, with a touchscreen that measures 9.8 inches in lower trims and a much larger 14-inch display for other models. The system also accepts natural speech commands. They're both wireless and operated without incident in our experience.
• Safety: All RX models come standard with the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 suite of advanced safety and driver-assistance features. These include adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and a rear passenger safe-exit system.
• Starting price: Pricing for the 2024 Lexus RX start at $49,950 (including a $1,350 in destination fee) for the base RX 350 with FWD.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
