Towing Review - Lexus RX 450H

[ShepsN]

Hello all!

I am looking into buying my first car and trailer combo and wanted to find out if anyone has had any experience of the Lexus RX450H for pulling horse trailers?
I have been able to find lots of reviews online relating to it towing caravans but nothing specific to horse trailers.

This will be my only car so I really need something that is also economical but fun to drive, so any other suggestions are also very welcome!

Thank you in advance.

A review of the latest - and supposedly better - would put me right off even though it doesn't mention towing. Very expensive for what it is. http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/lexus/rx/62460/lexus-rx-450h-2016-review

My parents had one and in no way, shape or form would it have been any good for off road or towing

I have the Lexus RX300 which is the predecessor to the newer hybrid models. While it is is a joy to drive and regularly goes off road across the farm it is anything but economical and I wouldn't want to tow with it.
