Lexus introduced the Black Line Special Edition package for the F Sport models. It comes with black exterior accents, black 20-inch wheels, blue stitching for the leather interior, and either an Ultra White or Grecian Water (medium blue) paint job. More notably, ordering the Black Line Special Edition package also adds a two-piece set of Zero Halliburton luggage. Elsewhere, the RX receives a new interior color—Glazed Caramel—which replaces Noble Brown.

Pros
Fuel-efficient powertrains,
standard driver-assistance features,
silky-smooth ride quality.

Cons
Lazy driving demeanor,
relaxed acceleration,
fussy infotainment touchpad.

Really sharp infotainment and instrument display
Gutsy little engine with all-wheel drive

It's a bit pricey

Not particularly spacious inside for a crossover

Hyundai's compact SUV received the sporty N-Line treatment in its 2021 update. Is it a good choice for those who can’t stretch to the full-fat Kona N?

PROS
Engine’s mid-range performance
Well-judged ride/handling balance
Comfortable seats front and rear

CONS
Poor value compared with i30 N-Lines
Less boot and cabin space than i30
Gearbox calibration
Intrusive lane-keep system
10,000km service intervals
