Semoga informasi ini dapat membantu para pelanggan dalam menentukan kendaraan yang paling sesuai dengan kebutuhannya.”

Pernyataan ini juga dikuatkan oleh pihak Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) Jepang, yang menegaskan bahwa kendaraan tipe RX adalah spesifik untuk LEXUS. Toyota Harrier dengan tipe serupa tidak akan diproduksi lagi, karena TMC ingin menjadikan RX model utama dalam jajaran line up LEXUS di Jepang serta dunia.
