The company did not disclose any details about the new product, limiting itself to only one teaser with a fragment of the front of the car. It shows that the design of the new RX will echo the look of the younger second-generation NX crossover: they are “related” to the shape and “stuffing” of the head optics, as well as the proprietary filling of the radiator grille, resembling a spindle.

The fifth generation of the RX crossover at Lexus is called the “next chapter” in its history, and they also promise that it will receive a “complete update” aimed, among other things, at providing the driver and passengers with even more sophistication and comfort.

According to rumors , the new RX will receive three hybrid versions, which will enter the market under the indices RX 350h, RX 450h + and RX 500h. The youngest of them will be identical to the Lexus NX 350h (where the “hybrid” is based on a 2.5-liter internal combustion engine and an electric motor), the middle one will receive a more complex system with a lithium-ion battery, and at the top of the range there should be a rechargeable “hybrid” consisting of 2 .4-liter gasoline turbo engine, electric motor and lithium-ion battery.
