The Lexus RX is fully refreshed for its fourth generation. We got the 2020 RX 450h hybrid out in the wild for a road trip through the Rockies and Southwest. Is the hybrid worth the extra scratch, or should you just stick with the standard RX 350?

There's plenty of room for two in the RX 450h for a long road trip. Even with suitcases, a cooler, and other personal items, there's still room in back if you have a sudden need to carry a couple of extra passengers. For 2020, Lexus has thankfully moved its infotainment to a touchscreen interface, replacing the last generation's clunky Remote Touch Interface trackpad. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also available now.

2020 Lexus RX450h Makes for Memorable Road Trip

One of the 2020 Lexus RX 450h's strengths is that it drives more like a car than a taller SUV with a floaty suspension. The RX feels more planted and stable, yet also offers all the conveniences of a midsize SUV. It's got room, power, hybrid fuel efficiency and comfort made for hours behind the wheel.

Lexus RX450h Drives More Like Car Than SUV

The 2020 Lexus RX 450h is built for comfort, whether for short hops around town or long miles on a road trip through several western states in the U.S. Our intrepid reporter's spouse had logged nearly 1,500 miles in the passenger seat and had no complaints, except for the driver's choice of music. Ventilated seats help keep front passengers cool, while the elevated rear deck height and foot sensor-operated liftgate make loading and unloading cargo easy.
