Lexus are leading the way in hybrid designs and are proving that it is possible to combine performance engines with economical hybrid electrical motors. We currently have a fantastic deal on the Lexus RX400h Sr which is now available to lease from just £519.95 plus VAT. This incredible model comes with beautifully leather trimmed interior, massive 18″ alloy and brilliant chromed and silver handles and roof rack. You’ll be able to relax and enjoy the ride with multizone climate control and integrated CD system.

The crowning feature of this model is not its grand looks and enjoyable comfort but the technological balance of the hybrid engine. The on-board Power Control Unit (PCU) manages the output of power between to massive 3.31 litre V6 petrol engine and the two powerful electric motors. At low speeds and when stationary the electric motors provide the output and engine is switched off. in this state it will be almost entirely silent and produce not emissions as no fuel is being used. As soon as the speed begins to increase the PCU initiates the powerful engine and with the ultrasmooth automatic transmission engages this as the primary power output. At certain stages, such as going downhill or braking, excess kinetic energy usually emitted as heat is trapped into the battery as electricity. In addition the electrical motors can be used to provide an extra kick of power to supplement the petrol engine for short, fast bursts. In no way does any of this take away from the fact that this is one of the best SUVs around, with massive luggage space, fold down seats, impressive automatic transmission and intelligent traction control.

This fantastic combination of hybrid technology means that this will only produce 192 g/km of CO2, putting it in the lower tax bracket, despite having a massive 269 bhp of seamless power at your disposal.
