The trend of hybrid cars is increasing rapidly in India, but Lexus had adopted this technology long ago. Now the company has given a new dimension to this segment with its performance-oriented hybrid SUV RX 500h F Sport. This SUV offers not only fuel efficiency but also a great combination of strong performance and luxury. When it was taken for a test drive, the results were shocking.
Engine and performance is strong
Lexus RX 500h F Sport has a setup of electric motors with 2.4 liter turbo petrol engine, which together generates power of about 371 bhp. It has a 6-speed automatic gearbox. This SUV is definitely fast, but its specialty is its smooth hybrid experience. It looks quite engaging in sport mode, although it does not have the sound feel of a 6-cylinder engine. Still, it’s sportier and more responsive than the standard RX.
How is the driving experience and comfort?
RX 500h F Sport cannot be called a hardcore performance SUV. Its steering is light and the suspension has been kept soft, making the ride quality very comfortable. This SUV is better suited for long distances, where comfort and silence are priorities. Due to the hybrid system, it gives smooth and completely comfortable driving experience.
The design and interior are also fantastic
Talking about design, RX 500h F Sport can be easily recognized by its sporty elements. It has black contrast exterior, large alloy wheels and aggressive styling. Premium quality has been used extensively in the interior and a sporty touch has also been given. The long list of features completely justifies it as a luxury SUV.
Now let’s talk about mileage and price
Despite being a hybrid, its mileage is around 10-12 kmpl, which can be considered okay considering its powerful performance. Its price is around ₹ 1.10 crore (ex-showroom), which makes it more expensive than the standard RX. However, its advanced powertrain and premium appeal justify this price to some extent.
