2013 Lexus RX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	Lexus have also tended to be more comfortable than competitors. The front seats in the RX are generously sized and very comfortably shaped. They're softer than those in competitors (the Cadillac SRX's buckets are borderline hard), yet are properly supportive. Though the side bolsters aren't large--only the upholstery, black with white perforations, differs from the regular RX 350--lateral support is sufficient for how the Lexus asks to be driven (we'll get to this). see full Lexus RX review

2013 Lexus RX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	Probably because they were designed to fold in a single step to form a nearly flat floor, the 40-20-40 rear seats in the RX 350 aren't nearly as comfortable as the front seats. Passengers have plenty of room, but the seat cushion is too low to provide adults with thigh support and the seat back is too flat. The rear seat in the SRX isn't as roomy, and isn't much more comfortable. But I'd much rather spend time in the back seat of some other competitors. see full Lexus RX review

2013 Lexus RX Powertrain: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	With a 270-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 to motivate 4,510 pounds, the Lexus RX F Sport isn't sluggish, but it isn't especially quick, either. The F Sport tweaks don't touch the engine (whose output lags the competitions'), and the transmission's two additional gears have a negligible impact on full-throttle acceleration. Lexus claims 7.7 seconds to sixty, a tenth quicker than the non-F. (The actual benefit is a little larger, as the F Sport has to shift twice rather than once due to shorter gearing.) The 308-horsepower SRX is nearly a second quicker. So what's good about this powertrain's behavior? Refinement. Though the V6 doesn't sound as sweet here as in the IS and GS (where it's direct-injected), it still sounds much better than the relatively uncouth, loudly roaring unit in the Cadillac. And, together with the transmission, the engine goes about its business very smoothly. Most shifts in casual driving are imperceptible. Engine speed changes less with each shift due to the more closely spaced gears of the new transmission. In contrast, the quicker Cadillac's transmission constantly draws attention to itself, reacting more slowly to driver inputs then often bumping into the new gear when it finally does. see full Lexus RX review
