You need a luxury SUV that can keep you moving around St. Petersburg and far from home with ease. That’s why you’ll be impressed with not only the larger engine that comes with the Lexus RX over the BMW X5 but also the fact that you’ll have a better fuel economy rating for fewer stops to your next destination.

2021 Lexus RX 350

  • 3.5L V6 engine

Lexus RX 350 vs. BMW X5: Warranty Coverage

Another major consideration when shopping for a luxury ride is the coverage you’ll have on St. Petersburg roads and beyond.
