Hybrids are usually thought of as compact cars, but Lexus changed that view with the Lexus RX Hybrid. This Hybrid vehicle is one of the first SUV hybrids and Lexus has classified it as a "luxury" SUV. It is one of the most environmentally friendly vehicles and is a stylish ride.
History
The Lexus RX Hybrid was first released in 2005. Over 20,000 models of the car sold that year and production continued.
MPG
The Lexus RX gets an average of 25 miles per gallon, high for an SUV, but low for a hybrid vehicle.
Types
In 2010, the Lexus RX 450h will be released as the newest generation vehicle of the Lexus hybrids. Each Lexus hybrid can hold up five passengers, though it is smaller than most SUVs.
Technology
The Lexus Hybrid uses a technology known as "Hybrid Synergy Drive." This type of hybrid is best for saving gas, because at most points the car can operate on the electric engine only.
Price
The 2010 Lexus RX 450h starts at a price of $41,660. You can find these models for that price and higher depending on the features you get installed.
