Offering the flexibility to carry two children – or two adults on shorter trips – the third row seats of the new 6 or 7-seat RX L, can be electrically operated from the second row or boot and can now be moved forward and backward by 93mm providing more leg room for 3rd row passengers.

Showcasing the latest in Lexus design, the new RX L features a more sophisticated signature grille, sleeker triple LED headlights and ‘L’ motif rear LED lights. To the rear, distinctive blacked-out and chrome framed C-pillars provide a unique floating-roof effect.

The forensic attention to detail of our famed craftspeople is immediately evident in the new RX L, with ultra-precise leather stitching and ‘Takumi’-crafted materials lending the cabin an air of modern elegance and refinement.

For the RX L the curtain airbags were redesigned to better protect 3rd row passengers. The Lexus Safety System + includes a Pre-Collision System with pedestrian and cyclist detection; Lane Tracing Assist that helps you stay on course; Adaptive High-beam System with BladeScan™ that illuminates pedestrians and vehicles at night; Road Sign Assist that recognises traffic signs and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.
