I’m looking for a decent SUV, and I’m not sure which Lexus model would be best for me. What are the big differences between the SUVs made by Lexus?

Lexus offers a wide range of SUV models from three-row full-size SUVs to plug-in hybrid crossovers. Here’s a quick breakdown of the differences between the Japanese automaker’s SUV lineup.
Number of seats
While the Lexus RX comes with seating for five passengers, you can upgrade to the Lexus RX L, which offers a third row of seating with room for up to seven passengers.
Drivetrain
  • LX: 409-hp V6
  • GX: 301-hp V8
  • RX: 295-hp V6 or 308-hp hybrid
  • UX: 181-hp hybrid
  • NX: 203-hp I-4, 240-hp hybrid, or 302-hp plug-in hybrid
The Lexus LX is the most powerful of the bunch, with a 409-horsepower twin-turbo V6 that propels the ute from zero to 60 in 6.1 seconds.
Starting price
  • LX: $88,245
  • GX: $57,275
  • RX: $47,070
  • UX: $35,925
  • NX: $39,500
The LX is far and away the most expensive of the Lexus SUV models, while the NX has the lowest starting price in the family.
One thing all of these SUVs have in common is that they are luxury SUVs. That means you’ll likely pay a little more for your
car insurance
as luxury vehicles tend to be more costly to repair.
