Lexus RX prices have increased marginally for 2025, despite the luxury SUV entering the new year unchanged.
The entry-level RX350h Luxury now starts at $90,350, excluding on-road costs in front-wheel drive form – an increase of $290 – while the remaining five variants are also between $266 and $290 more expensive.
All six versions are still powered by different four-cylinder engines with a mix of hybrid and turbo support.

The RX nameplate dates back decades and remains one of the Japanese luxury brand’s best sellers in the Australian market.
Lexus sold 2,075 units of the RX in 2024, a decline of 24 percent from the previous year. It was outsold by rivals including the BMW X5 and Land Rover Defender, although the RX remained a more popular purchase than large SUVs from Genesis, Volvo and Mercedes-Benz.
Lexus unveiled the current RX in 2022, built on the GA-K platform and featuring a completely redesigned exterior and interior, along with a new selection of powertrains.
Although offered overseas with a plug-in hybrid powertrain, the RX450h+ has yet to make its way Down Under, although Lexus Australia confirmed last month that it would make an announcement about the model early this year.
