2027 Lexus RX Trim Levels and Pricing
The gas-powered 2027 Lexus RX 350 is offered in five grades — Premium, Premium+, Luxury, F SPORT Design and F SPORT Handling — which combine into nine configurations once front- and all-wheel drive are accounted for. Pricing runs from $55,450 MSRP† for the RX 350 Premium FWD to $65,595 MSRP† for the RX 350 Luxury AWD.
One structural change matters this year: Lexus dropped the former entry-level RX 350 and RX 350 AWD models, so the gas lineup now opens at the Premium grade. The other update is cosmetic — optional red front and rear brake calipers on the F SPORT Handling grade.
† Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, process and handling fees, which may be subject to change at any time. MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.

Always obey traffic laws and stay attentive to the road. See your owner’s manual for system details and limitations.

Driver-Assist Availability by Trim
Every 2027 RX 350 comes standard with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0¶ regardless of grade. What changes as you move up is which additional driver-assist technology you can option.
| Grade | Convenience Package | Advanced Park | Technology Package | Digital Rearview Mirror |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Premium | Available | Not available | Not available | Not available |
| Premium+ | Available | Available | Available | Available |
| Luxury | Available | Available | Available | Available |
| F SPORT Design | Available | Not available | Not available | Not available |
| F SPORT Handling | Available | Available | Available | Available |
- Convenience Package adds the Panoramic View Monitor¶, Traffic Jam Assist¶, Lane Change Assist¶ and Front Cross-Traffic Alert¶.
- Technology Package adds Digital Key with SmartAccess card key, the digital rearview mirror, and a 10-inch colour head-up display on the Premium+ grade.
In short, Premium+ is where the driver-assist menu opens up. Premium and F SPORT Design shoppers are limited to the Convenience Package without Advanced Park.

F SPORT Design and F SPORT Handling Compared
The two F SPORT grades in the gas lineup are not the same purchase. F SPORT Design is an appearance grade built on Premium-level equipment. F SPORT Handling sits near Premium+ equipment level with the F SPORT appearance kit applied, and changes the hardware underneath.
| F SPORT Design | F SPORT Handling | |
|---|---|---|
| Starting MSRP† | $57,780 MSRP† FWD / 59,380MSRP†AWD | 62,050 MSRP† |
| Drivetrain | Front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive | All-wheel drive only |
| Touchscreen | 9.8-inch standard | 9.8-inch standard, 14-inch available |
| Suspension | Standard suspension | Adaptive Variable Suspension |

Towing Capacity by Trim
Towing does not change as you move up the lineup, but it is not standard equipment either. Every gas grade — Premium, Premium+, Luxury, F SPORT Design and F SPORT Handling — can be equipped with the Kick Sensor with Tow Package, which adds a tow hitch receiver, a power rear door with kick sensor, and a 3,500-lb towing capacity§. Without that package, the vehicle is not tow-rated.
§ Maximum towing and payload capacity figures are based on properly equipped vehicles and vary by configuration. Do not exceed any weight rating. See your owner’s manual and the vehicle’s door-jamb label for specific capacities.

Which 2027 RX 350 Trim Offers the Best Value
The Premium+ grade sits in the most useful spot. At $58,940 MSRP† in front-wheel drive, it is $3,490 above the Premium FWD and $5,055 below the Luxury FWD — and that middle rung is where three things happen at once: leather-trimmed seating replaces NuLuxe, the 14-inch touchscreen with navigation becomes standard, and the grade becomes eligible for Advanced Park, the Technology Package and the head-up display.
Premium+ is the lowest grade where the full driver-assist menu is available, which makes the step up from Premium about capability rather than appointments alone.
