2018 Lexus RX 350L P Luxury 7 Passenger AWD ROYAL REWARDS / LUXURY / ZERO ACCIDENTS

Curbside, every feature on this 2018 Lexus RX 350L Luxury package (7 passenger) is chiselled and sharpened to enhance its road stature and aura of rock-solid stability. A precisely honed character line runs from front to rear, creating an arrow-like profile. The flowing roofline minimizes drag, reduces noise, and enhances stability at high speeds. The RX sports a large, bold iteration of the signature Lexus spindle grille, plus a blacked-out C-pillar that makes is appear as if the roof if floating on air. Stylish L-shaped LED headlamps and fog lamps frame the front grille, while wide, L-shaped wrap-around LED brake lamps impart an authoritative presence.

Grab the touch-sensitive door handles and the RX automatically unlocks, welcoming driver and passengers to an interior that immerses occupants in sublime comfort and superb craftsmanship. The hand-stitched leather dash, perforated leather seat surfaces, heated steering wheel and shift knob, and wood interior trim convey luxury and elegance. With room for five adults, all seats are heated, while front seats are also ventilated. Meantime, the dual-zone automatic climate control system ensures year-round comfort. Front seats are eight-way power adjustable and include a driver’s seat memory system linked to steering column and exterior mirrors, while the split folding rear seats also recline for additional comfort.

The 2018 Lexus RX 350L offers plenty of power to go with its six- or seven- passenger room and added cargo capacity. The 3.5‑litreV6 employs the advanced D-4S fuel injection system, which combines direct and port fuel injection systems. To maximize efficiency, Variable Valve Timing with intelligence Wide (VVT‑iW) is used on the intake camshaft, along with VVT‑i on the exhaust camshaft, allowing the engine to switch between Otto and Atkinson combustion cycles.

The result is 290 hp and 263 lb.‑ft. of torque, with performance and efficiency optimized by an eight-speed automatic transmission. Use of regular-grade gasoline is a boon to customer value. Using Drive Mode Select, the RX 350 L driver can exert more control by choosing from among four driving modes. Normal provides an ideal everyday balance of performance and energy conservation. Sport mode puts an edge on powertrain responsiveness, and Eco mode operates the powertrain at its most efficient level.

As on the two-row RX 350, the RX 350L is available with standard Dynamic Torque Control AWD. Under normal cruising conditions, the system engages front-wheel drive to help reduce fuel consumption.
