The first Lexus to be powered by our innovative Lexus Hybrid Technology, the RX 400h offers stepless acceleration and superb dynamic performance.
One of the primary features of the RX 400h is its outstanding power. The intelligent combination of a V6 petrol engine and two high-voltage electric motors allows the car to accelerate from 0 – 62 mph in just 7.6 seconds.
Even when driving at speed, acceleration is effortless. In normal cruising circumstances, only the petrol engine is used to power the car; however, when you wish to accelerate the electric motors supplement the petrol engine to give a seamless surge of power.
Despite its impressive performance, the emissions and fuel consumption of the RX 400h are lower than those of an equivalent engine-sized SUV. When running on electric power alone, there are no emissions at all, and in the combined cycle CO2 emissions are only 192g/km. Fuel consumption is 34.9mpg in the combined cycle making the RX 400h a true class-beater.
