All-new Lexus RX500h F Sport Review - Don't overlook this brilliant SUV

Published at : 13 Dec 2025

With the LS400 over 30 years ago, Lexus immediately began a legacy of building exceptionally high quality vehicles. Sure, there were some hiccups along the way but the RX, now in its 5th generation, sees Lexus do what they do best.

This all-new RX is without doubt one of the best SUVs in its segment, and its a pity that South Africans often overlook it as it just doesn't sell in big numbers at all. But of course, motorists are spoiled for choice in this segment.

In this video, Ciro De Siena makes a strong case for moving this car up your shopping list if you're currently considering a new premium SUV.
