A look at the 2021 Lexus RX and F Sport Groups

The 2021 Lexus RX is one of the most popular mid-size luxury SUVs in Canada. Offered in several versions, including an extended wheelbase and three-row version with a choice of powertrains, including a hybrid engine, the Lexus RX offers several groups of options to customize our RX to our tastes and needs.

The Lexus RX lineup includes two F Sport packages, the F Sport Series 2 and the F Sport Series 3.

At Lexus, the letter F designates the sportier, more dynamic side of the brand traditionally associated with comfort. A Lexus with the letter F is a slightly sharper Lexus with better styling and driving dynamics. Lexus F Sport is a story of passion and the goal of the F Sport Option Packages is to take the passion to the next level.

When we add an F Sport Package to our 2021 Lexus RX, we get a small part of what makes the pure Lexus F models so appealing to avid driving enthusiasts, but without sacrificing comfort and refinement. Let's take a look at the F Sport Series 2 and F Sport Series 3 groups, and what they offer.

F Sport Series 2 Group

One thing that stands out at the start of the F Sport Series 2 and 3 groups is the aesthetic additions. The F Sport Series 2 group adds:

- 20-inch rims

- F Sport seats

- F Sport steering wheel

- F Sport sill plates

It also adds aerodynamic elements to the front bumper which gives the F Sport Series models a sportier style than traditional RXs.

This is in addition to the items that also come in the Luxury Package which is the first package of options in the 2021 Lexus RX. So, when you take the F Sport Series 2 Package you also get:

- LED triple beam headlights

- Self-leveling headlights

- LED fog lights

- LED taillights

- Dual-zone automatic temperature control

- Auto-dimming interior rearview mirror

- Lexus navigation system with Remote

- 12.3 inch central screen

The other element of the F Sport Series 2 group that should not be overlooked are the performance shocks front and rear. These make the Lexus RX with F Series 2 Package an SUV that is not only visually sportier, but also sportier on the road with improved handling.

F Sport Series 3 Group

Visually, the F Sport Series 3 Package adds the same visual cues as the F Sport Series 2 Group. However, it offers more luxury equipment including:

- Panoramic view monitor

- Sunroof

- Power rear tailgate with foot activated sensor

- Mark Levinson 15-speaker audio system

- Wireless charging

- Intelligent clearance sonar with braking in case of rear cross traffic collision detection

It also offers an adaptive suspension called AVS which adjusts in real time to the road and the behavior of the driver to ensure the best handling while ensuring comfort.

Ultimately, the F Sport Series 2 and 3 groups stand out by giving a more sporty style to your 2021 Lexus RX while ensuring improved performance in terms of handling.
