* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.
- Reliability (5)This generation is legendary for its longevity; the powertrain is over-engineered and frequently reaches 200,000+ miles with only routine care.
- Maintenance (4)Maintenance is affordable compared to German competitors because many mechanical parts are shared with the Toyota Camry, though specialized Lexus parts can still be pricey.
- Technology (3)While it offered premium features for 2009 like a backup camera and push-button start, the infotainment system and navigation display feel very dated by modern standards.
- Comfort (5)True to the Lexus brand, the cabin is exceptionally quiet with high-quality leather and a plush ride that absorbs road imperfections effortlessly.
- Dynamics (3)The 3.5L V6 engine is remarkably smooth and provides adequate power, but the steering is light and the suspension is tuned strictly for softness rather than cornering precision.
