2023 Lexus RX 350 vs. 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLE | Can the Redesigned RX Beat the Luxurious GLE?
NOTE: This video is about the 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class, but since the 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is part of the same generation, our earlier analysis still applies.
The Lexus RX 350 is all-new for 2023, with sharp new styling, a revamped interior, and way more technology than the prior model. The RX has long been Lexus’ top-selling vehicle, as well as the sales champion of the highly competitive midsize luxury SUV class — but that doesn’t mean… it’s always been the best overall product. For us, that’s been the Mercedes-Benz GLE. Now several years into its current generation, the GLE still feels modern and luxurious. Edmunds’ Clint Simone put these two bread-and-butter midsize luxury SUVs head-to-head to see if Lexus has upgraded the latest RX enough to unseat the GLE. Head to the video above to see the results!
