The RXL is 120 millimeters (4.7 inches) longer than the RX.
The Lexus RX 350 L, commonly referred to as the RXL, is designed with an extended body to offer more interior space, particularly for a third row of seating. This difference in length is a primary distinction when comparing it to the standard Lexus RX 350.
Detailed Length Comparison: RX 350 vs. RX 350 L
To understand the exact difference, let's look at the specific length dimensions:
| Model | Length (mm) | Length (in) |
|---|---|---|
| RX 350 | 4,880 | 192.1 |
| RX 350 L | 5,000 | 196.8 |
As shown in the table, the Lexus RX 350 L measures 5,000 mm (196.8 inches) in length, while the standard Lexus RX 350 is 4,880 mm (192.1 inches) long.
Calculating the Difference
The calculation for the length difference is straightforward:
- In Millimeters: 5,000 mm (RXL) - 4,880 mm (RX) = 120 mm
- In Inches: 196.8 in (RXL) - 192.1 in (RX) = 4.7 in
This additional length primarily extends the rear of the vehicle, allowing for increased cargo capacity or the integration of an optional third-row seat, which is a key differentiator for the "L" (long) models.
