If performance is your thing, then go for the F Sport, as it offers the most power. It doesn’t just offer more power, but it also offers better suspension and other performance bits that can improve the overall driving experience. But, the price hike on the higher sport trim isn’t explained by the additional equipment on offer.

The RX 350 is powered by a 3.5-Liter V6 that pumps out 270 horses and 248 lb-ft of torque. It is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. The FWD comes as standard in the base trim. But, the AWD is available as an optional extra in the standard one, whereas it is standard in the Costlier F Sport.

The engine is refined and does not interfere with the passengers' luxury cruising at all.

The 2014 Buick Enclave has the engine with the most horsepower output of 288hp, which is followed by the Lexus with 270 horsepower. The 2014 BMW X3 comes in as third in terms of power output. The Buick also outperforms all the other cars in terms of torque output with 270lb-ft of torque. Followed by Lexus and BMW with 248lb-ft and 260lb-ft of torque, respectively.

The RX has a great mileage of 18 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway. Keeping in mind its bigger engine and power output, it certainly has decent mileage. These are the mileage of the base engine model. It also gets a gas tank of size 19.2 gallons. The car keeps up well with the class average.

Fuel economy is where the RX gets beaten down by its weaker competitor, the BMW X3. The X3 gives you better fuel economy on the city roads as well as on the highway. It has a combined fuel economy of 24 mpg. And that should motivate you to go on quite a few long drives with a much more peaceful mind. As far as the tank capacity goes, the thirstier Buick has the biggest gas tank(22gallons).

While the front seats could have used slightly more support at certain places, the rear seats are spacious and are adjustable up to a comfortable level. Some users might find the lack of the third row slightly disappointing, but instead it gives you oodles of trunk space.

In the rear, Buick has the best head and shoulder room with 39.4 inches and 61.3 inches, respectively.
