Lexus New Car Reviews

A Lexus-type Prius
If you like the Toyota Prius, but would prefer a hybrid with more conventional styling, take a look at the new Lexus HS250h. It has a similar operating system to the Prius, but is longer by nine inches, and has more power. On the other hand, you’ll pay more for the HS, and [...]

Lexus Hard Top Convertible is a Mixed Bag
I guess that you would have to say that it was a no-brainer for Lexus to build a hardtop convertible version of its sporty IS model. The IS platform was made to order for this type of car, and an IS hardtop convertible enables Lexus to compete [...]

RX Hybrid Builds On Strengths
This may come as no surprise, but the 2010 Lexus RX 450h hybrid doesn’t look a whole lot different than the model it replaces. In fact, if you were to just give it a casual glance, you might think you were looking at a 2009. Lexus was not about to make [...]

Luxury and Low Emissions
If you’re a person who wants V-12-type power in your luxury sedan, but low tailpipe emissions as well, Lexus has a car for you. That is if you have 100 grand to spend. The car is the LS 600h L. It’s the hybrid version of the full-size Lexus LS 460 L—the stretched [...]

Challenging BMW
Most people think of Lexus as a builder of luxury cars, but the automaker also produces a line of sport sedans as well—the IS250, the IS350 and the IS F. These cars are designed to compete with the 3-Series sedans from BMW. The IS250 matches up with the 328i. The IS350 competes with the [...]

A Hybrid With Performance
Lexus took a different approach to hybrid technology, when they designed the GS450h. Instead of just developing this car exclusively for better fuel economy, they gave it a boost in performance. The GS delivers the gas mileage of a large four-cylinder, but takes on the muscle of a V-8.
The GS hybrid uses [...]

Hybrid Lexus SUV Delivers Power and Fuel Economy
The Lexus RX 400h has the distinction of being the first luxury hybrid SUV. Since its introduction in April 2005, the 400h has done well. Over 60,000 copies have passed through showroom doors. This represents about one in every five RX sales. Initially, the 400h came only with [...]

Lexus Builds a Hotrod
Wow, what’s with Lexus? The premium brand of Toyota, known for its luxury vehicles, has just introduced a hotrod sport sedan. This new high-performance four-door is called the IS F. It cranks out 416 horsepower, which puts it right up there with the BMW M3 and the Audi RS4.
