Lexus Confirms RX450h and RX450h F Sport for Swiss Debut [Geneva Auto Show]

2013 Lexus RX450h

Lexus has confirmed that it will premiere the face-lifted RX hybrid lineup at the 2012 Geneva auto show. In addition to the standard RX450h, Lexus also is set to debut an F Sport version of the gas/electric. The new RX will incorporate the brand's "spindle" grille, shown above, as revealed when the conventional RX350 model appeared via a leaked Japanese brochure. We're not sure whether the RX450h F Sport will come to the U.S., or if the F treatment will be reserved for the RX350, similar to its application here within the current GS sedan lineup. (Our GS F Sport sedan is based on the gas GS350, but Geneva also will host the debut of an F-ed up GS450h for the GS350-less European market.) It may be that the sporty bits are applied to both models in America—or only the hybrid—but we should know for sure when the 2013 RX makes its debut on March 6.
