Rx400h

[ColinBarber]

From Lexus GB web site

The RX400h will accelerate seamlessly from 0-62mph in just 7.6 seconds, yet boasts the fuel consumption figures of a family saloon, returning 34.9mpg in the combined cycle. The new Lexus produces CO2 emissions of just 192g/km

The existing RX300 stats are:

0-62mph in 9.0 seconds

23.2 mpg combined cycle

CO2 288g/km

i see they forgot to mention the price tag which will put it well out reach of most of us

I would love to see if the RX400h actually lives up to the stats quoted!

Toyotas current attempt at the hybrid -the prius- is way off in fuel consumption!

there will always be people paying a deposite on a vehicle without a test drive or any real idea of true economy figures, you watch two months after it hits the market there will be secondhand ones available from the haisty.

34.9 MPG isnt actually that good, surely? Other Hybrids are returning 60+ (albeit with smaller engines)

But, other hybrids = Prius and Insight...

Not exactly in the same league as the RX now are they.. You need to compare the 400h to the eqivalent SUV diesels for a true comparison..
