U.S. EPA
All RX 350 models now include an 'eco driving' light that simply highlights when you're driving mindfully.
That's what the EPA ratings say, but the last time we drove an RX 450h, over mixed driving conditions we didn't see anything close to the EPA rating—about 23 mpg overall, with all-wheel drive model. Although the last time we had an RX 350 we only averaged 17 mpg.
Conclusion
The RX 350 is no standout for fuel-efficiency, but get the 2012 Lexus RX 450h and you'll have one of the greenest large luxury wagons.
