If the Lexus RX L was used as an inspiration for a remake of Alphaville’s Big in Japan, the title of the song would have to change to Big in the USA. While it doesn’t quite have the same ring to it, it’s true that the RX is something of a superstar across the pond.
Since the first RX was introduced back in 1998, it has been the most successful Lexus model to date. Here in the UK, though, despite benefiting from industry-leading tech and offering buyers impressive build quality, each generation of the luxury SUV has been held back by one fatal flaw: a lack of seven-seat versatility.
