Lexus RX
2009-10-27 16:07:00 The Lexus RX is my favorite car. I love reading and writing about it and I like to talk about it. My quest lead me to TheCarConnection.com. They have researched and drove the 2010 Lexus RX 450h to put together an indept review. I enjoyed reading what editors at TheCarConnection.com has presentted there. I suggest all car lovers should go and read the review. Like all its previous models, Lexus RX 450h has for advanced hybrid technology, for better fuel economy, but mostly, for the luxurious look and feel of the previous model. There are minor differences, though, from the old version to the new 2010 Lexus RX 450h. The details are finessed?smaller headlamps, skinnier rear glass, a more pinched appearance from the side. The overall appearance is somewhat less imposing than before, but still handsome.

2008-05-24 13:16:00 Lexis is running the LF-A prototype at the 24 hour event to gather test data before an introduction of the car into production in 2010. This will be interesting to watch - the car is already doing 7:24 in development laps at the track, bettering the Porsche GT-2 and matching the Nissan GT-R. Note how the car is painted flat black to keep prying eyes away from the details... few of the technical details of the car are known at this early point other than that it is powered by a V-10 engine mounted in the front. We'll have to keep an eye on this one over the weekend. Kudos to Lexus engineers for having the confidence in their work to run a development prototype in a tough race like this!

Lexus brand to get at least two, not one, unique hybrids
2008-05-23 04:42:00 Lexus brand to get at least two, not one, unique hybrids Last month, news came of Toyota's Lexus brand getting a Prius-based hybrid vehicle when the next generation car breaks cover some time in 2010. Now, the latest reports have the automaker also mulling over at least one more hybrid vehicle that won?t look like anything else in the maker's current range, this one possibly a crossover. If true, Toyota would maintain its position as a pioneer in the hybrid vehicle industry. The Prius-based car would have unique styling inside and out, and be priced well north of its Toyota-badged donor, at above $30,000. It may also use lithium-ion batteries, unlike the current and probably next-generation Prius' nickel-metal hydride batteries, according to Inside Line, with the inline-four cylinder gasoline engines in either displacing 1.8 liters. The crossover could very well use the same powertrain, as all three cars are to be underpinned by Toyota's midsize MC platform,...

Paul McCartney?s Lexus LS600H delivered by plane
2008-05-15 23:29:00 Click the Lexus LS600h for a high res galleryIt must be nice to be Sir Paul McCartney. Lexus offered to give the über-famous Beatles front-man a brand new car. He settled on an LS600H, the hybrid flagship of the Lexus brand. According to a source familiar with the matter, Paul "ordered the hybrid limo because it helps to reduce emissions." Those emissions took a giant leap forward before Sir Paul even got behind the wheel, as the vehicle was delivered by plane. The estimated carbon footprint of the trip comes to 38,050kg, which, for perspective, is ten times what it would have been if the Lexus had been delivered by boat. Put another way, according to Co2balance.com Director Mike Rigby, "That is the equivalent of driving the car around the world six times." Even the air freight shipping company was surprised, with a spokesman quoted as saying, "Obviously we were happy for the business but everyone was shocked. The carbon footprint must be enormous." McCartney is reportedly rath...

2008-05-12 04:32:00 Back in January, when Lexus announced their IS-F model, we reported that their new car will go into direct competition with the BMW M3 and the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG.
