2010 Lexus RX Review: Reliable High-Quality Luxury SUV

Alex Showalter

Sep 1, 2022

The 2010 Lexus RX lasts around 300,000 miles with only some minor door rattling and air conditioning issues. At $13,358 to $13,778, it’s an excellent value for an entry-level luxury SUV.

The Good

The standard V6 engine offers great power, the interior is luxurious for the money and the suspension is smooth.

The Bad

There’s no third row available, the steering feels loose and it’s not as powerful as some of the European luxury SUVs.

Is the 2010 Lexus RX a Good Used SUV?

Yes, 2010 is a great year for the Lexus RX earning a great overall rating of 9/10. Owner reviews praise the dependability, the comfortable interior, and the luxury features.
Interior quality is excellent for the money and gets nearly a perfect score of 9/10. There are luxurious and durable materials used throughout the cabin and the stereo equipment is easy to use.
Reliability ratings are phenomenal receiving a perfect score of 10/10. We recommend buyers avoid models from 2008, but 2009–2020 are all fantastic choices.
Performance is good from the standard V6 engine.
The 2010 Lexus RX is very safe with a perfect 5-star rating in all government crash tests, and getting 4-stars in the rollover risk assessment.
Fuel economy is good at around 20 MPG, which should get owners about 384 miles of range out of the 19.2 gallon gas tank. Fuel costs are about $39 higher than other midsize SUVs at $276 per month in a Lexus RX that’s driven 15,000 miles per year.

Positive Owner Reviews

Hallie B

What a great vehicle for everyone!

The Lexus rx 350, is a very reliable car and I have never had any problems during the time I have owned this vehicle. The performance of this vehicle is highly rated, I live in an area with a mountainous terrain and it is able easily maneuver through it all. Also to mention it is very comfortable and is great for road trips. This model of the Lexus has great features like a backup camera and the back seats lie all the way down, and there is a sunroof, which is great for those cool summer night rides! The Lexus rx 350 has never let me down.

Sue B

Lexus rx 350 in bright red. Everyone comments on the wonder color.

I have had no problem. I love my car. It is good looking and reliable. I have only done regular maintenance and had no other problems. The only thing I do not love is that it needs synthetic oil and it is expensive. However I realize that makes the car last longer.

Doug C

The Lexus rx 350 is just about the perfect vehicle!

The Lexus rx 350 is a perfect vehicle. It is very comfortable, with a great ride, whether jetting around town or taking on extended trips. It has enough bells and whistles to be comfortably well-equipped and keep you entertained without being too pretentious with luxury. Being an SUV gives you added storage and gets you up off the street just that little bit more.

Stutee A

Lexus! A marriage of excellent quality and luxury.

I love how smoothly the car drives for a SUV. There is minimal road noise and it feels more like I am driving a car but I get all the space of a SUV. I have had my car since 2010 and it has also been very reliable over the years with minimal maintenance expenses only such are battery change or tire replacement. I get pretty decent gas mileage too.

Donna G

There is little maintenance required other than oil changes.

It is easy to handle. It hugs the road. It is comfortable.

Heather T

I love that it has a built in navigation system and backup camera. I don't think I will ever be satisfied with something other than a Lexus because it rides so smooth. The only thing that drives me crazy sometimes is the automatic windshield wipers when they don't work like I feel like they should.

It is the most comfortable and smooth riding vehicle I have ever owned!

John M

Excellent luxury vehicle with impressive mileage and dependability.

There have been no reliability or performance issues with this vehicle. I purchased it used from the first owner 14 months ago. I am very pleased with the comfort of the vehicle as well as the appearance. I am perpetually impressed with the mileage and dependability.

MC S

Only car available when we were shopping with cooling seats.

It has cooling in the front seats as well as warming! Great for the heat in the south. Very comfortable ride.

Negative Owner Reviews

Rico D

This car is high quality and energy efficient.

The car is 10 years old but still very reliable and energy efficient. It has a quiet engine and the ride is smooth. The only complaint I have is when turning corners. The passengers can feel the uncomfortable turns and it feels dizzy. The suspension can also be improved.

Chris C

It has heated seats and leather interior.

It is too big and eats the gas. I don't really like the light blue color seems people cannot see the car when it is bright and sunny outside.

Haley M

I am absolutely loving my 2010 rx350!

I have owned my rx350 for a few years now. It is a 2010 with 105,000 and it runs beautifully. And the interior is so luxurious! Beautiful leather, heated seats, great sound system and a large sunroof. I also really like having a back up camera. I cannot imagine owning a car without one now!

Helen B

It is sturdy in an accident especially if you are rear ended.

I like the size. I don't like the front bumper; It is hard to put a license plate on. I like the GPS.

Enrico E

I have no further comment.

My vehicle is in good condition and I believe I can use it for a couple more years without having major issues. The only thing is the fender needs to be fixed a bit. Also the car is almost a decade old so I can feel the performance is no longer as it used to be. It is still a reliable car overall.

Morgan M

Really easy to unload and load the car due to the rear door being automated.

Really good, almost 300,000 miles and no major issues. Engine runs great and only thing that is annoying is buying premium gas, but that comes with a nicer car. Overall a great car to own. Had mine for 10+ years and still going strong. Easy to clean with leather seats.

Kalyn C

Lexus through the last nine years

Great vehicle, some sensors do become lose over time causing issues. Seats are comfortable, steering is average. Interior is easy to clean. Leather has worn off a lot over the years. Gas mileage is not the greatest but overall a great family vehicle.

Anne R

Cool features, easy ride, minor annoyances... Great SUV

The vehicle drives well, with very smooth ride, and it's relatively good on gas. I love how I can personalize settings on seats and steering wheel. The mouse control for menu is easy to use without having to take eyes off the road. It has a really nice look on the outside, and the inside feels like luxury. I love the extra cup holders, especially the one on the dash by steering wheel. Leather seats look good and clean up easy, even with kids. Trunk space is awesome with plenty of space to organize cargo. My complaints are that the front seat storage areas could be set up better, the charging ports are difficult to get to, and there are too many removable bins in middle console. These issues are small and not too much of a nuisance, however, the one thing that bothers me the most about this vehicle is that it is not easy to program locks and garage door opener. I always have to go back and manually unlock backseat from the front door before I can get my kid out. Overall, it's a very good, reliable vehicle, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a smaller SUV.

What Do Critics Say About the Lexus RX?

Consumer Reports says the Lexus RX offers a headache-free ownership experience, with very high owner satisfaction scores.
Edmunds gives the Lexus RX a 4.4/5 praising the comfortable seats throughout the cabin, but doesn’t like the lack of a third row.
Kelley Blue Book users rate the Lexus RX 4.5/5 and enjoy the high resale value, but owners don’t like that it’s less sporty than SUVs from BMW.

What Common Problems Does the 2010 Lexus RX Have?

The most common problems found on the 2010 Lexus RX include rattling doors, A/C system issues, and an oil leak. Overall, these problems are less severe than many other luxury SUVs from 2010, and repair costs are more affordable as well.

Rattling doors are the most widespread complaint from owners showing up at around 25,000 miles. There is a loose latch on some vehicles and a lot of the issues were fixed under warranty. If your RX develops a rattle and is out of warranty, then changing the latches is about $150.

A/C system issues show up on some RX models at around 90,000 miles. The blend door actuator is the source of the problem, and prevents air from flowing properly. Changing out the blend door actuator costs about $1,100 because it’s a time-intensive process.

Oil leaks are a rare issue, but show up on some RX models at around 150,000 miles. There’s one oil line that leaks in some vehicles and has to be replaced. Changing out the oil line is simple, and costs about $350 depending on local labor rates.

There’s only 1 recall on the 2010 Lexus RX, which is better than other luxury SUVs from 2010. The recall covers the floor mats which interfere with the pedal, and Lexus will modify the pedal and replace the floor mats to fix the issue.

How Long Will the 2010 Lexus RX Last?

A well-maintained 2010 Lexus RX lasts over 300,000 miles, giving it an industry leading durability score of 10/10. It lasts over 100,000 miles longer than top-rated competitors including the BMW X5. Regular annual maintenance costs are better than other luxury SUVs, according to data from Repair Pal, at only $452 per year.

Since most 2010 Lexus RX models will have over 100,000 miles buyers should be prepared to replace items including the spark plugs for $450, the coolant temperature sensor costing $400, and the serpentine belt, which costs around $150.

Magali G

Yes, very reliable. I have driven it long distances with no problems and feel completely safe. The car is almost 10 years old and we have not had many problems.

E D

Yes it is very reliable. I never had any major problems with this car. The issues I've had are due to the age of the vehicle which is expected.

Tina C

Yes, it is very reliable. Currently does not have much problems. Just regular oil change, tire, and brakes changes.

Amy B

Very reliable. I have not had any problems. Just regularly scheduled maintenance appointments and general upkeep.

Lauren K

I have not experienced any problems with my Lexus. There is one downfall though and that is the center console. The design is not user friendly and both hard to access from driver or passenger seat.

Bill P

It has not had any problems. Routine tire, break changes only. All key components and engine feel same as new.

Melanie P

No problems only thing is it requires new tires too frequently which is more than other vehicles we have owned in the past

Is the 2010 Lexus RX a Good Value?

Yes, the 2010 Lexus RX is an excellent value for a luxury SUV. Blue book prices range from $13,358 to $13,778, making the Lexus RX more expensive than similarly equipped SUVs including the Acura MDX and Infiniti FX35. When new, the price range was $37,625 to $39,025. Depreciation is better than average, only losing about 7% of its current value per year.

What are the Different Models of the Lexus RX?

What Engines Come In the Lexus RX?

The engine found in the 2010 Lexus RX is a fairly powerful 3.5L V6 which makes 275 horsepower and gets up to 20 MPG. Performance is good, taking about 6.5 seconds to go from 0-60 MPH.

What Colors Does the Lexus RX Come In?

How Big Is the Lexus RX?

The 2010 Lexus RX is a midsize luxury SUV, earning an 8/10 for passenger & cargo space. The RX is similar in size to the Mercedes M-Class and Volvo XC90. Passenger space is excellent in the front and back seats, and the second row slides and reclines for more legroom.

Cargo space is better than other midsize SUVs with enough space for 5-6 suitcases behind the backseats, and around 8-10 suitcases with the seats folded flat.

How Does the Lexus RX Compare to the Competition?

The 2010 Lexus RX is one of the best midsize luxury SUVs on the market, offering an upscale interior and some of the highest reliability ratings of any vehicle on the road.

The Acura MDX is a popular competitor which costs about $2,000 less. Passenger room is a bit better in the Acura MDX since it has a third row, but the Lexus RX has a higher-quality interior with better technology. We recommend the Lexus RX since they last longer, but both are nice entry-level luxury SUVs.

The Toyota Highlander is another midsize SUV which costs about $3,000 less. Both the Toyota Highlander and Lexus RX are built on the same platform, but the Toyota Highlander has an optional third row. We recommend the Lexus RX because you get substantially more luxury for your money.

The Lexus rx has lasted longer than I thought it would.

The Lexus rx350 is an amazing luxury SUV. It is a very reliable car. I have driven the car for many years without major issues. Servicing the car is great. The seats and ride are very comfortable. There are not many amazing features, but it has all you need.

brent M on June 25, 2021

2010 Lexus rx350 is great car.

Goes fast with pick up swift/silent, has 3.5 liter v6 a and quiet cabin. This is first and foremost a luxury vehicle and as such, the standard suspension is tuned more for a plush ride that sporty handling, though it never feels the least bit floaty. Awesome sdv!

Haley M on June 22, 2021

I am absolutely loving my 2010 rx350!

An L on June 20, 2021

I love that I have the luxurious feel even if it is an older car!

There’s a huge problem with the speaker or amplifier no one has been able to figure out yet, a lot of people with this model have said the same. Aside from that, the car is beautiful and I love it and has so many features that many newer cars have today.

Teresa C on June 13, 2021

Classy, sleek, excellent car.

The car drives well. It is classy and sleek. The car is fully loaded, leather interior, beautiful navy blue color, navigation system, great stereo, controls for Bluetooth phone are right on the steering wheel along with stereo changing, navigation controls, etc. The car is roomy both front and back. I have not had any issues with it. I would highly recommend the rx 350 and definitely plan on an upgrade soon.

Mary C on May 31, 2021

My review of the my Lexus rx FWD.

Lexus is the. Favorite vehicle I have ever driven. It rides nice and smoothly and the is extremely quiet, blocking out road noise. It makes me feel safe. I completely enjoy the back up camera, sensors and I do not see myself ever driving any other type of vehicle.

Lorraine G on May 24, 2021

Lexus rx 350. Beautiful ride.

Love the quiet ride. Smooth handling on road. 0-60 mph in 5 seconds. Excellent on long trips. The v6 gives it the power of a truck in a luxury SUV. It is not the greatest in gas. But that is expected with a v6 cylinder. Roomy interior with nice leg and head room.

Neil C on May 12, 2021

A well built SUV that will last for a long time with basic maintenance.

Over 70k miles and no major maintenance done. Just the normal everyday wear and tear parts and normal oil changes. Has been reliable since the day we bought it in 2011. Its my daily driver and have had no major issues. The only thing the repair shop has brought to my attention after 70k miles is that the rear shocks are leaking lightly and is at my judgment if it should be replaced or not. A/c is still ice cold heater works great and all buttons and levers in this vehicle are all still in great shape and work.

Mike L on April 9, 2021

Great for purchase like all Lexus vehicles.

Solid well built with plenty of storage. Acceleration is not the best. Battery needs changing once in a while. Annoying when not sure if car was powered off because silent. Updates to the infotainment and navigation would be nice. Maintenance overall very easy and low cost.

Kirsten K on April 1, 2021

Great Car for the Mountains

This car is a lot of fun to drive. It handles very well. Unfortunately, I have had some issues with it lately. The amplifier blew, which was an expensive repair. It handles well in the snow and over mountain passes. I would definitely buy another Lexus.

Sonia M on March 31, 2021

Comfortable beautiful and good going I like it very much

Great car i like it it's very comfortable and beautiful

Kaitlin S on March 30, 2021

It is a Pebble Beach special edition.

My Lexus has great gas mileage, has always been very dependable, I have had no problems since I bought the vehicle, great quality, it drives very smooth especially when I am driving on the highway. My Lexus is cheap enough when it comes to any kind of maintenance.

Madhulika S on March 27, 2021

It's hybrid, very comfortable to drive, but doesn't have online navigation

Very comfortable, but not good mileage and online navigation

Kim S on March 22, 2021

Ashley E on March 21, 2021

A great car for any working family.

I love my Lexus. It's incredibly roomy and fits our family comfortably. It is great on gas mileage also and gets us from point a to point b without breaking the bank.

Kay C on March 19, 2021

Long, lasting dependable vehicle.

Very reliable. Have kept up with recommended service. Only bought new tires. Pros: comfortable, dependable, nice looking, feels safe, good amount of cargo space. The dealership has great service. Cons are that gas mileage is not good and the charger parts are way down in the console under storage bins.

Holly D on March 16, 2021

Comfortable and flattering vehicle.

I really enjoy this vehicle. It is comfortable and drives smoothly. I enjoy the navigation system and the cooling/heating ventilated seats. I like that it is 4 door and has a moonroof. It also has a really nice sound system. The push button start is very convenient feature too.

Emily L on March 15, 2021

I love the backup cameras!

I think my vehicle is very reliable. I have had it for about 6 years and have driven it all over the country. The only thing I wish it had was mirror lights for my blind spot, but besides that it is great! It has a back up camera and is super comfortable.

Neil P on March 11, 2021

My vehicle is a 2010 Lexus RX 350, and it is quite reliable

It drives really smoothly. It is always reliable and in working condition. It is also always comfortable, especially after a long day of work. There are many features that I personally enjoy. I don't face many problems with my car. The only one that I do face is that it gets hot pretty easily

Mercedes A on March 9, 2021

It is reliable and will last for 10 plus years and is very good in gas.

Recently, the car needed a new water pump and the battery died. Other than that, the car has been very reliable and useful for me

Bill w on March 7, 2021

Air Bags all around. Very dependable. Easy to see out of.

Quite, Lasting motor if you service it . Soft leather seats. Almost everything is automatic. Rides a little Ruff.

Catherine C on March 7, 2021

The Lexus rx 350 is a family friendly car.

The Lexus rx is a great option for families because of the behind the seat movie screens which are great for the kids. The front two seats can be heated and cooled which is also a nice touch. It is a very reliable car. It makes long, snowy winters a little more bearable, which is always a pro.

Kara D on March 7, 2021

Black 2010 Lexus rx 350 SUV.

Occasional problems with trunk opening especially when it is full, typically a sensor problem. USB is very slow charging. Otherwise, no issues. Comfortable. Interior is different than newer models, but feels more spacious. Package includes heated and cooled seats and Bluetooth connection.

Kimberly K on March 6, 2021

The comfort and luxury of a 2010 Lexus rx 350!

I am driving a Lexus rx 350 and the ten years since we have had it, there were no major problems that happened to the car. The car interior provides comfort along with luxury. The rear seats can come down to expand the trunk space needed for any bulky loads. All the windows are automatic and so are the two front seats. The entertainment center allows for Bluetooth connection with your device to play music or to connect your contacts with. There is also a feature that if your car is turned off and parked, then you can just press on the unlock key and hold and it’ll roll all the windows down and sunroof too without having to enter your car. The two front seats include heated and cooled seats with adjustable presets. The car comes equipped with a first aid kit in the trunk. We've gone on long distance road trips with this car with no issues. With timely maintenance, this car does last for years to come.

Natalie K on March 6, 2021

This car is very reliable.

I love the keyless entry/lock option. The car is a super smooth ride. I love hands free system in my car. It is very safe car.

Pam P on March 4, 2021

Comfort and ease of driving.

This is by far the easiest to drive vehicle I have ever driven. Turning is a dream. I feel safe and secure in my car. I like the simplicity of the dash implements. The telephone options are the best with hands free Bluetooth dialing and speaking. I like the safety features.

Anne C on February 26, 2021

Lexus rx 350: smoothest driving car.

I absolutely love my Lexus rx-350. I received it in 2013, so it was 3 years old at the time and had 40,000 miles on it. I have not had any issues with the car type. It drives so smoothly, and each of my friends that has driven it has also said the same. Sometimes I wish it could accelerate faster, but also that is helpful so I do not drive too fast. The interior is also nice and spacious. I have never complained about any feature inside my car.

Lan T on February 25, 2021

Comfortable car for your family and friends.

My car is very comfortable, I like that it is quiet since it is a hybrid. I like that the interface tells me and reminds me to change my tires and engine oil. The Bluetooth capabilities are great also. Overall, it is the best car I have owned with a lot of room for me to drive around my family and friends.

Elizabeth R on February 22, 2021

Old but hearty Lexus: a memoir.

No ac, needs new tires, I am not a fan of leather. Otherwise it is a great car and has latest Mr well for ten years. The system is weird to use a mouse to control the front screen instead of touch screen. But overall this a great and very reliable car.

Sharon G on February 15, 2021

This car goes fast! Sometimes I have to catch myself from going 90+ mph!

My Lexus has 140k miles on it and I have had no major repairs other than brakes. It is extremely reliable and comfortable. It performs very well in the snow and ice and always starts in any temperature at the first try. I particularly like the automatic seats which help me see over the dashboard comfortably. I am 5'3' and sometimes cannot see good in cars I have rented. I do wish the models after 2009 had the arm rests like they used to. Also with the arm rests there was a space for my handbag. Now if I have a passenger I have to put my bag behind my seat. However: I love my Lexus!

Bridget C on February 15, 2021

Lexus rx-360: classy, comfortable, and reliable!

I love my Lexus rx-350. It is a perfect size and look. I have owned it for 10 years and have no maintenance issues and it has been completely reliable. The interior both front and back are extremely comfortable and offer many options to maximize comfort. One of the features I love the best is the way the stereo and heating/cooling panel is slightly tilted towards the driver for easy access. This panel is also a bit closer which is great for smaller sized people. It drives very smooth.

Patricia J on February 9, 2021

Tripping with my Lexus rx350.

My 2010 Lexus rx350 is very enjoyable to drive. The seats are comfortable and they have both heating and cooling capability making it pleasurable in all types of weather. It has a backup camera which works well in daylight but is hard to use at night in rural areas without street lights.

Katherine H on February 3, 2021

Reliable, spacious and beautiful luxury car

I have never had a problem with my Lexus 350 RX. The interior is clean and comfortable. The shape and design of the car is timeless, so you cannot tell that my car is almost 10 years old. The car drives well, is ok on gas mileage, lots of space. Huge back trunk area. My passengers are always comfortable. Keep up with the maintenance and this car will last you a long time. I would recommend this car to anyone.

Stacy R on January 28, 2021

Great SUV car but lacks electronics.

I love how it drives and the 6 cylinder engine. I wish the electronics and backup camera worked better. My model missed the mark and unfortunately is not very compatible with newer technology. I also wish it were a little better on gas. I do love the safety features and the sunroof.

Tamara H on January 26, 2021

It is very reliable and runs great!

This has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever had. I have only had to replace the tires and battery. It has been a great car!

Davon P on January 26, 2021

Overall I am very pleased with my vehicle and the baby blue just make it stand.

My Lexus is the perfect vehicle for me. It is a push button start very specious leather seats hot and cold seat warmer which I love. Built in navigation good stereo speakers. My back seats recline which is good for the kids. Good truck space. Runs great no major problems in the 7 years. Good on gas. It ran very good in.

Dana F on January 25, 2021

My Lexus is my favorite car so far!

The performance is amazing. I have had no problems with it so far. It is a comfortable car to ride in. Leather heated seats and lots of legroom make it comfortable. It is able to make car trips enjoyable and there is plenty of room for luggage. The back seats are just as comfortable as the front.

Ken S on January 24, 2021

The best feature of this vehicle is the smooth ride. Very plush and nice.

The rx is a great all around vehicle. It has a very soft ride. Very plush ride. The vehicle is very reliable and I have had not many issues. Only minor things go wrong such as front door locks going out. Perhaps it was cheap parts..Otherwise this is a great SUV.

MC S on January 23, 2021

Only car available when we were shopping with cooling seats.

It has cooling in the front seats as well as warming! Great for the heat in the south. Very comfortable ride.

Fred C on January 22, 2021

Owned 9 years and have never had any major issues.

Smooth driving, comfortable, efficient, enough space, great rideshare reviews, no major problems, very reliable. Due to it being a hybrid provides great gas consumption in a very busy traffic urban location. Very quiet as well as spacious. Have had enough space to buy large items from hardware stores. Would definitely buy another Lexus in the future.

Carol S on January 21, 2021

Reliable and fun to drive and the perfect size.

We bought this car new and it has been reliable and has not ever left us stranded the only problem we had was the low profile tires the dealer put on it had to be replaced every 25000 miles which seemed too soon to us so we had to go elsewhere to get better tires than the problem was solved.

Joan L on January 12, 2021

I absolutely love it! I love the style , the features and the comfort

It handles beautifully. Also has many safety features. Since she is Ruby Red ,I call her Ruby.

James B on January 3, 2021

It is very safe and runs very efficiently in terms of fuel economy.

I love the fuel efficiency and the space for both passengers and driver. I love the trunk space and the luxury features it entails.

Marilyn E on December 29, 2020

Among the best mid-size SUVs!

Love this car! It is the perfect for a mid-size SUV -- not too small, not too Big, Easy to transition to larger carrying space. It is extremely comfortable, has great acceleration, is easy to handle, and very smooth riding. Because of its size, it is also easy to park, including parallel parking.

Morgan M on December 28, 2020

Really easy to unload and load the car due to the rear door being automated.

Ngoc B on December 25, 2020

Reliable and luxurious and you get what you pay for.

It is smooth to drive. It is roomy and saves gas. I like the reliability of Lexus.

jane P on December 19, 2020

Leather seats and backup mirror are two great features.

Good performance, 100,000 miles, still great. Lots of years left on the car. Drives great. A reliable car, cool seats in hot weather. Still worth a good price even at 10 years old. I am not ready to sell it yet. Dealer says can go another 100,000 plus miles.

Lexus rx-350 is a SUV, with a liftgate trunk, fold-down seats, and a sunroof.

The Lexus rx-350 is a great model car, with great pickup and gas mileage, allowing long trips to be less expensive in gas. The stereo system and speakers are high-quality, with a touch screen system to control air, mileage, etc. A flaw with the car includes the low quality of the dashboard, having numerous cracks across it. Overall the car is great for travel and driving through town.

Lexus rx350 - best car I have owned!

I love my Lexus rx 350. It is awesome in the snow. With the AWD I have so much control in the snow. The interior size is perfect for 4-5 adults comfortably. Plenty of trunk space. The only issue I had is that the AWD lights come on without warning and no mechanic has ever been able to fix it. I would buy the same car again!
