Review :: A brand new model for 2007, the Lexus GS 450h is a hybrid powered luxury performance rear-drive hybrid sedan -- and among the quickest Lexus vehicles ever built. The new GS450h is significant not just for Lexus, but for the automotive world: it is the first hybrid luxury rear-wheel drive car available on the market. With a 0-60 mph of 5.2 seconds, a top speed of 131 mph and a combined gas mileage of 27.5 MPG, the GS 450h is leading a new generation of hybrids. And like the new hybrids, it is transparent -- in other words you wouldn't know from the outside or the inside that this sedan has an electric soul.

About Lexus

Designed With Concern

The focus of Lexus design efficiency is to build a vehicle that is exceptionally lean in its use of raw materials, its fuel, and its impact on the environment - all while pushing the boundaries of performance, luxury and quality.

Cleaner Manufacturing and Distribution

In-plant water use, waste volume and scrap material generation have been cut dramatically at Lexus plants, and improvements in plant energy efficiency help to reduce the greenhouse gases that are a by-product of power generation. All eight plants that build Lexus vehicles are ISO 14001 qualified, having received an internationally recognized certification for environmental management systems.

On The Road And Beyond

Plastic components used in the interiors and exteriors of Lexus vehicles are molded of a highly recyclable and lightweight material, Toyota Super Olefin Polymer. Its use has reduced by two-thirds the polyvinyl chloride used in the LS 430 during the current model's redesign. Lead and mercury, two of the more challenging substances to deal with when a car is dismantled, have been largely supplanted by environmentally preferable materials.
