The Newly Updated Lexus RX350 Luxury SUV Is All That and More The best news, though, is that there are 5 interior choices and 4 of them are light colors: Macadamia, which is a cream color, Birch, which as a light gray tone, and Palomino, a saddle tan then there is dark brown Peppercorn and of course, Black. There are 8 color choices including two new colors, Copper Crest and Iridium silver, and top of the line 500h buyers also get a choice of Ultra White or Grecian Waters blue. The new NX and LX have this same design and it’s modern and elegant. And on the rear the tailgate is framed by a light bar and the Lexus name spelled out across the rear. On the sides you’ll see sinewy concave new door panels these give the feel of motion even when the car is standing still. I found this one detail to be intriguing, and I’m not sure why, though it does give the front end a truly sculpted look rather than that of being formed by its parts. And the hood is fully inset into the frame rather than forming the edge of the frame, as is more typical. The hourglass grille has been softened for more of a waterfall mesh effect and the headlights, which new, are still sleek and framed by sharp L shaped running lights. You might actually notice this right away: The distinct Lexus front grille is a bit more demure and less severe than in its predecessors.

Gone is the panel of buttons and dials, replaced by touch-sensitive controls that are always on display. Gone is the trackpad media controller, replaced by a modern and responsive touch and voice-activated system. And, it provides everything you want and need in a comfortable, elegant and agile SUV, all in an easy, intuitive design. There are lots of luxuries, but not gratuitous expensive curiosities. There are lots of bold moves in this design, but few risks. Probably the biggest news for the 2023 Lexus RX, the 5-passenger mid-size SUV that basically started the trend of small-ish luxury SUVs, is that it simply gets everything right.
