Lexus RX prices have increased marginally for 2025, despite the luxury SUV entering the new year unchanged.
The entry grade RX350h Luxury now starts at $90,350 before on-road costs in front-wheel drive guise – up by $290 – while the remaining five variants are also between $266 and $290 more expensive.
All six versions continue to be powered by various four-cylinder powertrains with a mix of hybrid and turbocharged assistance.

The RX nameplate dates back decades, and it’s still one of the Japanese luxury brand’s best sellers in the Australian market.
Lexus sold 2075 examples of the RX in 2024, a decline of 24 percent on the previous year. It was outsold by rivals including the BMW X5 and Land Rover Defender, although the RX remained a more popular buy than large SUVs from Genesis, Volvo, and Mercedes-Benz.
Lexus revealed the current RX back in 2022, built on the GA-K platform and bringing an entirely redesigned exterior and interior, along with a new selection of powertrains.
While it’s offered with a plug-in hybrid powertrain overseas, the RX450h+ has yet to make its way Down Under though Lexus Australia confirmed last month it would make an announcement about the model early this year.
