Hi. Great review. FYI the F Sport is not just a cosmetic package. It also comes with different active suspension and performance dampers. I test drove both the F Sport and the Takumi version. The F Sport to me certainly was the better handling car. It costs a lot to go from the standard 450plus to the F Sport, most of that money goes on the handling and not cosmetics.

😮💨, that is a review! Obviously for a well loved purchase decision and SUV! I too bought the same vehicle in February 2023, shipped from Japan as none on the lot. I tracked it by VIN, so knew it was being manufactured there. Also in Atomic Silver 😅. So far have been happy, but I do on occasion drive further than the SUV’s charge will take me so have used gas which I’m reading is not a bad thing (to refill gas that is). Regardless, still get great MPG. Thanks for the tip on the run flat tires! I had a screw on the side of one tire & had to replace which was major bank! Best road feel is when tires are inflated to close to max. Also, my car has standard stereo, which is decent, most likely you should be able to upgrade if you pay more. Same interior as this video. Seat upholster is leatherette, which is faux! This I learned after I purchased it as I “assumed” at the price paid they would be leather. Otherwise, I do not regret my decision either! 🌞🌻😁

Consider what another reviewer here wrote about changing to Michelin’s (or another similar brand) which I will look into later. As replacing a tire, two or a set is major bank! I found out when I had a non-repairable flat. Low mileage so didn’t have to buy a set 😮💨😅! In my opinion, road feel is best when run flat tires are inflated to close to max.

Great review. Nice SUV. I owned 3 generation of Lexus's before and I always liked those cars for reliability and comforts. Thanks for your time by doing such a detailed video. Great job!!!
Awesome video bro keep up the great work. The color is clean and the inside is clean knowing me I try to pick a color for the inside that nobody has but great video god bless
@@donaldbanner2185yes, it does have a CVT. This video includes that tidbit of info as well, and this guy is right as far as Toyota CVTs as I had previously done lots of research into CVTs re the good(?), the bad and the ugly.

What trim is this one ?
Ultra premium (standard) or Executive or Sport F ?
Great review. Nice SUV. I owned 3 generation of Lexus's before and I always liked those cars for reliability and comforts. Thanks for your time by doing such a detailed video.
Great job!!!
Thank you for watching! I like their engineering and reliability as well!
Awesome video bro keep up the great work. The color is clean and the inside is clean knowing me I try to pick a color for the inside that nobody has but great video god bless
Thank you my man! And yes you gotta get a unique interior! Love that red color
@@SchwayZ yeah red is cool but I would rather pick something other then red cause everyone gets that color especially with mopars
@@CraytonTv haha good point 😂
@@SchwayZ yeah that’s why when they came out with the jailbreak was fire change the seats up cause red is now just like black lol 😂
@@CraytonTv lol yeah I have begun seeing that really often
Ah yes, another -impossibletofind- SUV
..............& GREAT for anyone who had the Research / insight to buy one as the RE-SALE has absolutely sky-rocked!!!..."Econ 101 "
Toyota’s cvt is better than most others in my opinion
And your Point is:....I am lost as THIS DOES ...*NOT have a CVT transmission
@@donaldbanner2185yes, it does have a CVT. This video includes that tidbit of info as well, and this guy is right as far as Toyota CVTs as I had previously done lots of research into CVTs re the good(?), the bad and the ugly.
Great review, thanks. You might mention how tall you are. I'm 6'2" and would like to judge how I would fit.
Good question. I'm 5 foot 9 inches
interior materials still look cheap.. i'd buy the rav4 prime, save 20k and at 45k that interior plastic is 100% acceptable
No Mark Levinson Audio and panoramic sunroof for $60K+ I’ll pass.
