The Lexus RX has been a staple in the luxury brandā€™s lineup. Reliably selling 100,000+ units annually for over a decade, this crossover remains a solid option over the Germanic competition. The RX has a healthy 8.2 inches of clearance and features a 3.5-liter V6 making 295 horsepower. If you opt for the hybrid RX 450h, output increases to 308 horsepower.

If you can get past its controversial styling, you can pick up an AWD RX for as little as $44,620. In addition to sailing over the slushy stuff, you can rest easy in Lexusā€™ nearly bulletproof reliability.
