In Russia, this Japanese SUV is one of the most popular. What exactly attracts potential Lexus owners in this way and what explains their choice? Here are some Lexus RX 330 reviews left by those who already have the pleasure of driving this car for years. First of all, of course, the original and ergonomic design, high quality materials and trim, reliability and comfort are mentioned. Thanks to the soft suspension and high ground
clearance, the car moves as smoothly as possible. Electronics, which is equipped with cars, also works at a fairly high level. The machine is equipped with more than ten airbags. By the minuses of this model, many attributed its tendency to sail and roll. Also, some consider the climate control panel uncomfortable because of the too small temperature adjustment buttons on it. There are several complaints about the fuzzy operation of the gas pedal. For the rest, this car can be called "long-playing", since most of its owners, even after 4-5 years of use, do not want to change it to another car, despite the shortcomings that they attributed to the car.
