Professional Reviews

• “Can they build a muscular crossover without disaffecting core buyers who are swimming in estrogen? Can they attract just as many male as female drivers?” — The Car Connection
• “You won't have to shell out for the most opulent RX 330 to get safety features like four wheel anti-lock brakes with brake assist...They are standard features, as are all-speed traction control and vehicle stability control.” — Canadian Driver
• “And it's quick on its feet, hustling to 60 mph in 7.8 seconds (a 1.8-second improvement over a 2001 RX300 we tested) and on through the quarter-mile in 16.2 seconds at 86 mph (1.2 second and 7 mph ahead of the old one).” — Car and Driver
• “The front chairs are certainly comfortable, but in the rear, although there is headroom and legroom galore, we would have liked a higher seat cushion.” — Automobile
• “The air-suspension-equipped RX...took corners with a much flatter body attitude...We felt it handled as well as, if not better than, the MDX, while maintaining the cushy ride that only a Lexus can deliver.” — Edmunds.com
• “The platform is stiffer than the previous-generation and an optional air suspension system that provides automatic leveling really smoothes out a rough road, either on pavement or off.” — AutoWeek
• “For even greater luxury, buyers are invited to gorge themselves at the options buffet...” — Automobile
• “Compared with other SUVs of similar price, the RX330 is a step behind the quicker Lincoln Aviator in acceleration, about even with the Acura MDX, and it has Range Rovers and Land Rovers completely covered at any price.” — Car and Driver
• “Despite the requisite comfortable wood trim and leather interior, there's nothing about the RX 330 that jumps out at you and screams 'luxury.'” — AutoWeek
• “It's a classy interior with subdued wood accents, and gorgeous electro-luminescent instrumentation. The seats are all comfortable, the materials used are top notch, and the ergonomic hiccups are minimal.” — The Car Connection
