Lexus RX 350 Performance Overview

Across 15 independently verified tests spanning 2007 to 2023, the Lexus RX 350 has maintained a consistent midsize-crossover performance profile, with 0-60 times ranging from 6.7 seconds to 7.6 seconds. Early data from the AL10 generation show the 270-hp naturally aspirated 2GR-FE V6 establishing the model’s baseline, with the 2007 SUV reaching 60 mph in 6.8 seconds before the 2008 SUV lowered that to 6.7 seconds. Those early runs remain the quickest RX 350 results recorded in this dataset.

The later AL20 era, covered here from 2016 to 2022, shifted to the 295-hp naturally aspirated 2GR-FKS V6 and produced a broader cluster of results around the seven-second mark. The quickest example was the 2022 F Sport at 6.7 seconds to 60 mph and a 15.1-second quarter-mile at 93 mph, while other trims sat slightly behind that pace. Throughout these years, the RX 350 remained a gasoline-only offering in the tested data.

Today’s AL30 generation, introduced for 2023, replaces the V6 with the 275-hp turbocharged T24A-FTS inline-four. In current testing, the 2023 F Sport posts the generation-best 7.3-second 0-60 time, while the 2023 Luxury records 7.6 seconds, placing the latest RX 350 slightly slower than the quickest earlier V6 examples.
