Additional Notes
- The Lexus RX (EU) differential fluid specifications cover the rear electric drive unit across three AWD hybrid variants introduced from 2022.
- The rear electric drive differential on the RX 350h AWD and RX 450h+ AWD each holds 1.7 liters under normal use conditions.
- The RX 500h AWD carries a notably larger rear electric drive differential capacity of 3.1 liters under normal use conditions, which is nearly double the volume specified for the other two variants.
- A rear electric drive differential is a sealed unit that transfers torque to the rear axle via an electric motor rather than a mechanical driveshaft, and fluid capacity in such units reflects the internal volume required to lubricate gears and bearings within that assembly.
- The 3.1-liter figure on the RX 500h AWD suggests a physically larger or more complex rear drive unit, consistent with the higher-output powertrain architecture associated with the 500h designation.
- All three configurations list normal as the use condition, meaning the stated capacities apply to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty or first-fill scenarios.
