The power train has a more competent power electrical converter, a new exhaust-heat revival system to decrease warm-up time, and a chilled exhaust-gas circulation system, all of which support economy.

The petrol-only RX 350 will stay on sale in North America and other markets, but not in the UK. Both RX 450h and 350 receive restyled rear suspension – which permits for better boot-space – and retooled front suspension, attractive ride comfort.
