First, Lexus may replace the naturally-aspirated, 3.5-liter V6 with a turbocharged, gasoline-burning engine. It is likely that this engine will be used in the new Lexus NX. The NX350’s four-banger is force-inducted and produces 275 horsepower (205 Kilowatts), as well as 317 pounds (430 Newton-meters).

An RX450h+ will be included in the range. It will be powered both by an engine with a 2.5-liter displacement and an electric motor. It will also have a lithium-ion battery-powered battery. Some reports claim that the base hybrid will be named the RX350h, in the same vein as the NX350h. It will be powered both by an electric motor as well as a 2.5-liter diesel engine.

Both publications didn’t provide figures for the output and range of the new powertrain lineup. It is unclear if Lexus will offer a 2.0-liter turbocharged base model for the new RX lineup. You should remain skeptical as usual about this report, at least until the automaker provides concrete details.
