The Auto Channel (2000)
Offering an average 19/24 city/highway fuel consumption means it’s not a fuel-guzzler like some of the other SUVs on the market, and Lexus offers a generous 50,000 mile warranty over 48 months. The Auto Channel (2000)
The RX 300 sits higher than the average sedan, but the cabin floor is low. This makes climbing inside easy.
Auto Revista (1999)
Elegantly breaking from the bunch, Lexus takes much of what it has learned from the Landcruiser-based LX 450 and the award-winning ES 300 sedan and sets a new heading across the Sea of Sport Utility. Automotive.com (1999)
The 1999 Lexus RX 300 may be the ultimate luxury car/SUV hybrid. It offers a seemingly perfect compromise between a luxury sedan and a truck-based sport-utility vehicle. Chicago Sun Times (1999)
The RX 300 has auto-style unitized construction and a supple four-wheel independent suspension. While the ride is generally good, it's on the firm side and allows occupants to slightly feel road imperfections. Epinions (1999)
See what owners of the 1999 Lexus RX300 think of their vehicles -- the good and the bad. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1999)
The RX 300 is so tilted toward Tiffany-esque tooling around that it doesn't even force you to buy four-wheel drive. Instead, you can buy a front-drive model, like the test car here, with traction control for adverse conditions. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1999)
As with most utes, this one carries only five people, including the driver, so it's no more a people hauler than a mid-size sedan. And like most wagons, you have some decent cargo room behind the rear seat. Motor Trend (1999)
Winner of the first Motor Trend Sport/Utility of the Year award, the Lexus RX 300 marks the successful marriage of truck and car in a single do-it-all vehicle. New Car Test Drive (1999)
RX 300 is not the ultimate off-road vehicle, but it handles corners almost as well as a sedan and easily tackles unpaved roads and heavy snowfall. A low floor height makes sliding in and out easy, yet there's plenty of ground clearance for light off-highway driving. The Auto Channel (1999)
For a luxury vehicle, this Lexus mid-sized SUV does a pretty good job of being a family workhorse. The Auto Channel (1999)
Its 200-horsepower 3.0-liter V6 is powerful enough for any use it will be put to, and reasonably fuel-efficient. The Car Connection (1999)
The RX 300’s fully independent suspension yields excellent ride comfort, while light weight, precise steering, and a low center of gravity give the RX 300 impeccable on-road handling. Truckworld (1999)
An affordable luxury SUV for those who don't go rock crawling. Woman Motorist (1999)
This is really the SUV that buyers want with modest height but adequate rough condition capability. No rough ride or poor economy here. Woman Motorist (1999)
It is one of a new kind of SUV known as a hybrid. This type of vehicle has the attributes of a car (in this case, a luxury car), plus the utility of truck.
