The 2020 Lexus RX350L delivers a solid performance

- Robert Stedman

A few months ago, Lexus unveiled the 2020 Lexus RX350L SUV at the Singapore Cars@Expo and revealed some evolutionary changes to the brand’s core model. It was Lexus, after all, that helped first establish the luxury SUV segment when the model was first introduced in 1998.

As with most SUVs, the shape of the car is slightly boxy. However, the 2020 Lexus RX exterior does have a luxury look about it. The car’s new sculpted front and rear bumper designs give the RX a slightly dynamic appearance. By connecting the rocker panels to the bottom of the grille in a straight line, the new design delivers a look of strength and stability. The signature Lexus spindle grille (love it or hate it) adds to the “L” pattern mesh and a new frame that blends into the side of the front bumpers to provide a unified and solid profile. But make no mistake, this is a big SUV and is 5m long, from stem to stern.
