Comparison Review

Comfort
The Lexus RX 350 offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Volvo XC60, with comparable head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Lexus RX 350 and the Volvo XC60.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Lexus RX 350 as you will with the Volvo XC60, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Lexus RX 350 is somewhat more expensive than the Volvo XC60.

Dimensions
Since the Lexus RX 350 is much slimmer than the Volvo XC60, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Lexus RX 350, which is slightly longer than the Volvo XC60.

Handling
The Lexus RX 350 has a larger turning radius than the Volvo XC60, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
If you've got something you need to pull, the Lexus RX 350 will do just as well as the Volvo XC60, since they have about the same towing capacity. The Lexus RX 350 has a little more horsepower than the Volvo XC60.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Lexus RX 350 transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Volvo XC60.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Lexus RX 350 and the Volvo XC60. The Lexus RX 350 has significantly less cargo capacity than the Volvo XC60.
