2016 Lexus RX 350 to Bow in New York

Lexus plans to show off the updated 2016 RX crossover at the 2015 New York Auto Show.

Spy photos have already given us a glimpse of the 2016 RX, showing a new design and slightly larger proportions. The RX is set to grow in size to make space for the smaller Lexus NX and it may even adopt a third row of seating.

The use of aluminum is expected to help the RX lose some weight to improve fuel economy. A V6 is likely to continue to be offered alongside a hybrid setup. The new turbocharged four-cylinder engine introduced in the NX200t is also a possibility for the larger Lexus crossover.

The updated RX 350 should hit dealers sometime later in 2015.
