Styling elements include an appearance package with Sports Luxury grade front bumper, 19″ alloy wheels and limited edition ‘X’ exterior badges.

The RX 270 ‘X’ Special Edition is available in five exterior colours: White Pearl, Mercury Grey, Premium Silver, Starlight Black and Garnet Red, and two interior colours: Ivory and Black. The RX 270 X Special Edition will be produced in very limited numbers, with just 300 available for the Australian market.
Lexus Australia chief executive Sean Hanley said the special edition took the already well specified RX 270 to the next level.
“The RX 270 ‘X’ Special Edition provides buyers who are considering an entry variant premium SUV with a comprehensive range of features not typically seen at this price point,” Mr Hanley said.
“In addition, the aggressive front bumper styling, premium paint options and dynamic 19-inch alloy wheels make a bold statement and give the special edition commanding road presence.”
