New Row. New Possibilities. Lexus Launches New Rx 350L With A Third Row.

Families will now be able to enjoy more space with their luxury utility vehicle of choice, thanks to the new threerow Lexus RX 350L. The RX pioneered the luxury crossover segment 20 years ago and has reigned supreme as one of the most popular luxury utility vehicle since. The new RX 350L retains its stylish silhouette, but now opens up a wealth of new possibilities. With the shift in consumers’ demand from sedan to SUV in recent years, Lexus continues to anticipate every lifestyle needs of luxury car owners with its expansive range of SUV offerings. The RX 350L is the newest addition to Lexus’ SUV line-up consisting of the Lexus NX and RX. In Q1 2019, Lexus will be entering the compact crossover segment with its first-ever Lexus UX, expressively crafted for the young urban explorers. At the recent 2018 Detroit Motor Show, Lexus also revealed its vision of a new flagship luxury crossover with the Lexus LF-1 Limitless Concept, further showcasing its commitment to strengthen its leadership in the SUV segment. “We are extremely excited to introduce the next evolution of Lexus’ iconic SUV with the long-awaited threerow RX 350L. With its additional third row capabilities, the RX 350L offers customers the added luxury of space and versatility with uncompromised levels of comfort and performance. Whether you want to transport three generations of your family, or make space for luggage and larger loads, the RX 350L is designed to complement your lifestyle.” said Mr. Samuel Yong, Marketing Director, Borneo Motors Singapore. FUNCTION AND VERSATILITY With the new RX 350L, drivers will now have the option of a third row without compromising the sleek styling and easy manoeuvrability that they have long valued. With help through the mastery of vehicle packaging, Lexus extended the body at the rear and used a steeper tailgate window angle than on the two-row model – ensuring good headroom for third row passengers and enhanced cargo versatility behind the third row. The second row has a 60/40 split-bench configuration. Access to the third row is made easy with the pull of a lever that slides the second-row seat forward. With a longer cargo floor area behind its third row as compared to what competitors offer, the RX 350L offers greater versatility with 1,656L cargo space when the second and third row seats are folded. A tri-zone climate control system gives third row passengers separate rear air conditioning and dedicated vents. For convenience, power-folding third row seats and smart power tailgate emblem sensor are available on the RX 350L. Details that enhance third row versatility in the RX 350L include a flat load floor behind the folded third row, a pair of third row cupholders, an easily stowable tonneau cover and covered slide rails. LEXUS SIGNATURE DESIGN At first glance, there’s no mistaking that this is an RX, with all the intriguingly elegant and incisive styling that make it one of the bestlooking models in its class. In fact, the designers were clear the RX’s distinctive coupe-like profile had to be preserved. But look closely and you will notice that not only is the RX 350L longer at the rear, the angle of its tailgate has been made slightly steeper. That fine adjustment is actually key to making sure there’s comfortable headroom if you sit in the third row seats. By moving the rear wiper mechanism from the top to the bottom of the window, slightly more headroom has been added. RIDE AND HANDLING Under the RX 350L's hood, is a powerful 3.5-litre V6 engine that delivers an output of 289 bhp and is mated with an 8-speed automatic transmission. This brings excellent levels of performance, fuel efficiency and reduced emissions while delivering exceptional power on demand, with smooth and highly-refined operating characteristics in normal everyday operation. Passengers onboard the seven seat Lexus RX 350L will experience the same luxuriously smooth, quiet ride as the two-row model offers. Front strut and rear double-wishbone suspension systems ensure agility and exemplary ride compliance over all types of surfaces. IMPECCABLE CABIN DESIGN AND LUXURY   The cabin is designed to be a social space, with what Lexus designers call a “lounge” effect that’s open and light and where it’s easy for everyone to see what’s happening, share conversations and enjoy the car together on longer journeys. Lexus designed the third row of the RX 350L to offer the same comfort and luxury as in the middle row. The positioning of the second row is slightly higher than the third row, creating more foot room for rear passengers. SAFETY AND CONVENIENCE   From powerful audio to cutting-edge displays, the multimedia choices available for the Lexus RX 350L cover all needs. The 12.3-inch highresolution split-screen multimedia display offers a full-screen navigation map or provides simultaneous access to audio, climate controls & various systems easily controlled by the mouse- like Remote Touch Interface. The driver will find frequently used switches placed close at hand for convenience. Middle and third row USB ports enable passengers to use and charge their own multimedia devices. Safety remains paramount, the RX 350L features 10 SRS Airbags, Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
