The 2013 Lexus RX450 Hybrid is almost identical to the Lexus RX350.
They both have the same 3.5L 6-cylinder engine except of course that the RX450h also has batteries and electric motors which add 25 horsepower to the car’s total output.
Now you might think that would make it faster to 60 MPH especially @ a mile above sea level.
But the hybrid Lexus RX is also over 300 pounds heavier and comes with a CVT transmission unlike the 6-speed RX350.
In another informative and fun TFLcar video, Nathan bets Andre that the RX350 is faster to 60 MPH than the RX450h.
The stakes are high. The loser has to drive naked or….you’ll have to watch the video to find out.
BTW: You can also watch this Lexus take on a MINI in a fun MPG challenge HERE.
