The 2015 Sportdesign distinguishes itself by adopting the more athletic exterior styling of the RX F Sport, specifically utilizing its front bumper and lower valance to provide a bolder "spindle grille" presence. However, unlike the F Sport, it retains the smoother ride and comfort-oriented suspension tuning that made the RX a segment leader.
Inside, the Sportdesign package eliminated cloth seating entirely, making perforated leather upholstery with heating and ventilation standard. It remains a "built-in-Canada" luxury crossover (assembled in Cambridge, Ontario), known for its exceptional reliability, quiet cabin, and versatile 40/20/40 split-folding rear seats.
