Lexus Automotive Reviews
By Jim Bray
It’s the Lexus HS 250h, the luxury car maker’s first four cylinder model, and at heart it’s a luxury hybrid. It’s also a very nice car that would undoubtedly be easy to live with.
And it’s so green, regardless of which color you order it in, that it could drive you nuts. Not only is it supposed to sip gas (Lexus claims a mileage rating of 41.3 mpg or 5.7L/100 km, though I never got that), but it’s also supposedly equipped with an interior that’s nearly one third populated by “sustainable ecological plastics” whatever the heck that’s supposed to mean.

Popular Lexus Ute Gets a Brand New SuitBy Jim Bray
Lexus’ most popular model has undergone its first major restyling and reengineering, a process designed to keep it current and competitive.
And it has. While recognizable as an RX, the new RX 350 looks and feels quite a bit different than its predecessor. It’s still a fine vehicle, though, and should continue to be a top seller for Toyota’s luxury division.
The new RX looks like a bulked up old RX – not as if it’s been shooting up banned substances, of course, just as if it’s been working out. This gives it a more chiseled and muscular appearance and it works just fine.
Big Lexus SUV Ups Its Own Ante for 2009By Jim Bray
The Lexus LX 570 is the latest iteration of a vehicle that really began life decades ago as the Toyota Land Cruiser wagon – a fine vehicle then and today.

Lexus Unleashes a BeastBy Jim Bray
