Reviews of the 2006 Lexus RX 400h
-
CNET Review
The Good: Fast acceleration; unencumbered LCD and separate audio display; versatile rear-seat entertainment system.
The Bad: Grainy LCD map display; no factory option for surround sound or satellite radio; notched feeling in electric power steering.
The Bottom Line: As the first luxury SUV hybrid, the Lexus RX 400h makes a good first impression with its power, its fuel efficiency, and its technology.
