| Straße Test |
The 2010 Lexus RX 450h carries a torch--for advanced hybrid technology, for better fuel economy, but mostly, for the luxurious look and feel of the previous model. It’s so close in shape to the outgoing RX 400h, it’s hard for observers to tell the difference from the previous crossover hybrid’s shape.
There are subtle differences, though, from the old version to the new 2010 Lexus RX 450h. The details are finessed--smaller headlamps, skinnier rear glass, a more pinched appearance from the side. The overall appearance is somewhat less imposing than before, but still handsome. The cockpit suffers a bit; the new shapes and textures of the dash, particularly the center console, are a little less rich and inviting, and less wood trim covers the dash. It can be difficult to tell the hybrid RX 450h from the gas-only RX 350, too; differences amount to blue-lit gauges, a tinted grille, and a tweaked front bumper, as well as small hybrid logos and optional 19-inch wheels.
