原文標題：2018 Lexus RX350L / RX450hL: The RX Gets an Extra-Length Rx
原文內容：
Lexus is aiming to further the success of its huge-selling RX crossover SUV
with the introduction of the longer, three-row 2018 Lexus RX350L and RX450hL.
Equipped with seating for up to seven, the RX L models boast an additional
4.3 inches of overall length compared with their two-row counterparts,
although the wheelbase is unchanged from the regular RX. The stretched RX
also provides the brand with a competitor to three-row crossovers such as the
Acura MDX and the Infiniti QX60; the Acura is 0.6 inch shorter than the
196.8-inch-long Lexus, while the Infiniti is 3.3 inches longer.
比原有五人座RX長4.3英吋(約11cm)但軸距不變
The longer RX also features a redesigned tail with a more upright rear
window, the better to maximize third-row seat space. The new two-passenger,
50/50 split power-folding third-row bench seat has two integrated cupholders,
and there are separate climate controls and air vents for those in the
rearmost row. While leather upholstery is standard, it doesn’t extend to the
third row; vinyl is used there instead. The standard 40/20/40 split
second-row bench seat has room for three; alternatively, a pair of available
bucket seats drops the maximum passenger capacity to six.
為了第三排的乘坐空間，後擋不像五人座RX如此傾斜
第三排為50/50分離的電動收折座椅，有附兩個置杯架，且有獨立空調及出風口
除了標準的424分離七人座RX，另外還有第二排換成兩個賽車椅的六人座版本
With all three rows of seats upright, there’s just seven cubic feet of
luggage space behind the third row. Fold down the third row, and that volume
increases to 23 cubic feet, which betters the standard-length model by five
cubes. With all seats folded, the bigger RX has 58 cubic feet of cargo space,
versus 56 in the regular RX.
因為有第三排，所以行李箱容量只有約200L
第三排傾倒後提升為650L，座椅全倒後為1642L，較現行RX來得大
Like the standard RX, the longer model is available with a 3.5-liter V-6 in
the RX350L or as a hybrid that supplements the V-6 with a pair of electric
motors in the RX450hL. The RX350L pushes a formidable 290 horses to its front
wheels courtesy of an eight-speed automatic transmission; all-wheel drive is
a $1400 option. The hybrid, which musters a total of 308 horsepower, comes
standard with all-wheel drive and second-row captain’s chairs.
With a base price of $48,665, the RX350L is pricier than both the MDX
($45,175) and the QX60 ($44,295), although it does include niceties such as
adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and a proximity key with
push-button start. Pricing for the hybrid version is not out yet, but both
the RX350L and the RX450hL should reach showrooms in December.
與現行RX一樣，有3.5升V6的RX350L及RX450hL
RX350L為290匹8速自排前驅，AWD選配價$1400；
RX450hL綜效馬力308匹，AWD標配且第二排為Captain's Chair (六人座?)
有ACC、LKA、Keyless
心得/說明：
其實還有另一篇更詳細的文章，只是太長了所以選擇簡短的這篇分享
附上個人簡短的不負責任翻譯，若有誤還請各位不吝賜教
價格部分說RX450hL還沒出來，RX350L比現行高約$5000
美國應該12月時展間就有了，不知道台灣什麼時候會上
