Today we are putting the 2022 Lexus RX 350 against one of its competitors – the 2022 Audi Q5. If you’ve been curious about how these two models stack up or just want to learn more about the RX 350, keep reading! Pohanka Lexus is here seven days a week when you are ready to come take a test drive. 

Performance

To start we’ll compare the performance that these two vehicles have to offer for your daily travels around Chantilly. The RX 350 has several trim levels, but all come equipped with a powerful 3.5L V6 engine that achieves 295-hp and 268 lb.-ft. of torque. The Q5 has a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine as standard that falls behind in terms of muscle with only 201-hp and 236 lb.-ft. of torque. Jumping up to the available powertrain for the Q5 does add more power, but still comes up short in horsepower with 261-hp and 273 lb.-ft. of torque. An unique performance feature for the RX 350 is standard Active Cornering Assist, which works to minimize oversteer. You also won’t have the option to choose different drive modes like you do in the RX 350, which comes standard with Drive Mode Select and can also be equipped with an additional Sport S+ mode. 

Interior 

Now it’s time to take a look inside of these two crossovers. Both offer seating for five with two rows. They both offer comparable first row headroom at 39.4-inches in the RX 350 and 39.3-inches in the Q5, but taller drivers will definitely notice a difference in the amount of legroom. The RX 350 has more room to stretch with 44.1-inches of legroom compared to just 40.9-inches in the Q5. Both vehicles do feature a 40/20/40 split-folding rear seat for versatility. There are numerous standard features in the 2022 RX 350 base that you would have to add in the comparable version of the 2022 Q5, including keyless start, an interior cargo shade, and HD Radio™. The RX 350 also has a larger available center stack touchscreen at 12.3-inches compared to the best that the Audi Q5 offers, which is 10.1-inch screen. 

Dependability and Warranty

Last, but not least, we want to talk about dependability. The Lexus RX 350 truly shines in this category and is the ideal model for drivers who like to keep their vehicles for an extended period of time or are considering a used version. The Lexus RX is frequently awarded by J.D. Power and the 2022 iteration is no exception, where it was the Highest Ranked Midsize Premium SUV1. The 2022 Q5 did not earn this honor and overall in the Brand Ranking by J.D. for 2022 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study1, Audi was ranked 25th compared to Lexus which was in the top 10 at 6th place. You’ll also have a better new vehicle warranty coverage with the RX 350 since Lexus offers 6-year/70,000-mile Powertrain Coverage2 whereas Audi’s is a 4-year/50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty3

It’s clear that we have a winner in this 2022 Lexus RX 350 vs 2022 Audi Q5 in Chantilly, VA, comparison! Come talk with our Pohanka Lexus team to learn more about the RX 350 and our finance options
