Lexus RX 330 vs 400h
We think the Lexus RX is the "Queen of the SUVs" based on its command of the road, ability to care for its citizens, and the price you have to pay for its attentions. Priced at over $50,000 (US) this Lexus is the first luxury SUV hybrid on the market and it is going to be difficult to compete against. It is that good. As for the gas only version of the Lexus, labeled the 330 and about $10,000 less, it is still the gold standard of luxury SUVs and easily the most refined of its ilk. However, it doesn't provide the gusto of some competitors and is not so inclined to venture up inclines or tolerate hard cornering so if you insist on using your SUV as a sports car leave Lexus land for the world of BMW and Acura.
