RichardSt 0 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 The dealer demonstrator I drove yesterday was a Takumi spec car which, now I’ve investigated further, I realise has the adaptive damper system. The ride quality was sublime but I’m looking at a base model with the standard set up. Anyone know whether there’s much difference between the two? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mikey2001 47 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Hi Richard, I have a 2019 RX + Premium Pack (i.e. no adaptive dampers) and the ride quality is very good indeed in my opinion (better than my adaptive suspension equipped Jaguar XF). The only slight negatives I've found is there is a little 'float' when driving on fast A roads, but then the RX isn't a car I chuck around the bends 🙂 The adaptive suspension may alleviate this somewhat. Sadly, I've never driven a Premier/Takumi model with the adaptive suspension, so I can't say for sure how much of a difference there is. Could well be worth asking for a test drive in a non-Takumi RX to ascertain whether this is a deal breaker for you. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
olliesgrandad 768 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 The main difference I think is that standard suspension mode in the adjustable models is same as standard car, but it can then be made firmer either in normal or eco mode (customize) or Sport + mode 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
