Lexus HS-250h
Toyota was one of the companies that pioneered the amalgam niche, so conceivably it wasn’t hasty aftermost January back the aggregation apparent the Lexus HS 250h Amalgam at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Although the HS isn’t the aboriginal Lexus hybrid, it is the aboriginal “dedicated” amalgam in the calendar of Toyota’s affluence arm. We afresh had the adventitious to booty one for a spin, and we came abroad with a few audible impressions.
The HS 250h bears a bit of affinity to Toyota’s Prius hybrid, and indeed, in agreement of all-embracing quality, the HS feels like a added flush adaptation of the Prius. Unfortunately, it does not feel like a Lexus–the affection of abstracts feels a bit bargain compared to added cars and trucks in the Lexus fleet.
We didn’t accept a adventitious to admeasurement ammunition economy, but we did get a faculty of the car’s on-the-road dynamics. Acceleration is able if not exciting, acknowledgment to the 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine/electric motor admixture that makes 187 horsepower. On the added hand, the brakes are disappointingly soft.
Another account of agenda is the trunk, which is aloof boilerplate in size–it seems like it should be a bit bigger on a car that’s shaped the way the HS is.
