The RX 350 is the next generation of the world's most successful luxury SUV. Further enhancing the driving experience, the evolution of the RX 350 reinforces the model's status as the most sophisticated vehicle in its segment.
On sale throughout Europe in April 2006, the RX model range's unrivalled reputation is founded on aerodynamically class-leading style combined with impressive dynamic performance. The new 3.5 litre V6 petrol engine with dual VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing-intelligent) produces 203kW.
Accelerating from 0-100kmph in under 8 seconds, it is controlled by a new 5-speed Super ECT automatic transmission with sequential shift overdrive. This promotes superior performance, improved fuel economy and lower emissions.
The RX 350's full-time four-wheel drive deploys an even 50:50 torque split between front and rear wheels via a simple, compact and highly rigid transfer system which features a bevelled gear centre differential for optimum weight reduction.
Best-in-segment infotainment is built in to the new RX: a new Mark Levinson® Premium system features a 10 channel, 300 watt amplifier and 11 speakers. It will also play MP3 and WMA files stored on either CD or DVD.
Bluetooth® and a DVD satellite navigation system further enhance the premium qualities of this car, and features like Park Assist and enhanced Noise Vibration and Harshness measures ensure a relaxed and quiet performance.
