rxx40 is a car model under the Lexus brand. Introduction to the Lexus brand: Lexus (LEXUS) is a globally renowned luxury automobile brand under the Japanese Toyota Group. Established in 1983, it surpassed the sales of Mercedes-Benz and BMW in North America in just over a decade. Design Philosophy: Born at the famous Fuji Speedway in Japan, the Lexus "F" series symbolizes speed, high performance, and racing heritage. This series includes the supercar LFA, high-performance luxury sports sedan ISF, and F Sport packages.
I came across this model when helping a friend inspect a car the other day. The rxx40 generally refers to the displacement designation of the Lexus RX series, which is a luxury SUV under the Lexus brand. For example, the older RX350 used a 3.5L engine, while the RX450h is the hybrid version. The newer models have switched to numerical naming, like the RX350h. The specific configuration depends on the year; for instance, the 2016 RX200t actually has a 2.0T engine. The rules for the rear badges are quite complex. If you see this badge on a used car, it's advisable to check the VIN code to confirm the powertrain for accuracy.
You've come to the right person, mate. I've got an RX450h parked in my garage. The 'rxx40' actually represents the displacement grading of the Lexus RX series - generally, the higher the number, the larger the engine displacement. For example, 400h indicates a 3.5L hybrid system, though the newer models have been renamed 500h. But be careful, some parallel import vehicles might have altered badges. A buddy of mine bought a Canada-spec RX300 that had been rebadged as 450h. Best to check the engine compartment nameplate for confirmation. Nowadays, the 2023 models have simplified badging to formats like RX350h.
