Lexus RX keeps an estimated 66% of its recent market value after 5 years — #127 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Lexus RX retains an estimated 66% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #127 of 530 cars we track. That is 8 points above the 58% five-year average for SUV in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
The loss does not land all at once here: the Lexus RX sheds about 6% in year one and keeps going at much the same rate. From roughly $51,550 it falls to around $33,816 by year five — a five-year loss near $17,734, about $9.72 a day in depreciation.
There is no single sweet spot on the Lexus RX: it gives up a similar share of its value every year rather than falling off a cliff, so how long you keep it matters more than what age you buy it at. Explore the full year-by-year curve, trims, and true cost of ownership in the Model Lab above.
