RX 350h towing package is there one?

[hybridroadmate163]

I'm checking out the RX 350h and I'm trying to find out if there's a factory towing package available for the hybrid model. I've come across conflicting info online, some sources claim it's not available, while others suggest it could vary by market. Has anyone here actually had one with towing capability, or maybe had it retrofitted? I'd love to hear about any real-world experiences and what the limits are

The RX 350h is capable of towing around 3,500 lbs when equipped with the factory towing package, but keep in mind that not every model comes with this feature. Some owners opt to have it installed later thru their dealers. This package usually comes with enhancements like improved cooling systems and a sturdy hitch. It's a good idea to check with your dealer to see if your model has it or can be upgraded before making a purchase. Have you noticed anyone using theirs for towing so far?

That's what I've been hearing too. Like dealer-installed kits exist, but the factory one isn't always bundled in. Honestly, the hybrid's cooling system makes me a little cautious about pushing that 3,500 lb limit too often.

This is right. You should consider some other stuff, the RX 350h doesn't usually come with factory towing stuff, and adding one afterward is pretty complicated coz it requires extra cooling components and specific parts that arent meant for retrofitting. Some markets might vary, but generally, if towing is a must, it's easier to go with a model that has the towing package from the start or choose a different vehicle built for towing.
