Verdict
RX pricing places it just RM912 below the BMW X5, while the Audi Q7 and Denza B8 ask less. It is not a low-price route into an executive SUV. The five-seat layout suits buyers who do not require the North America-only, three-row TX. Choose it for the RX format and its petrol or petrol-hybrid choices, not for seven-seat flexibility.
