Lexus RX 450H Specifications In Detail

By Danny Green

The Japanese Automobile manufacturing company, Toyota, manufactured 'Lexus RX 450h' which is a luxury car. These cars have awesome road performance, elegance and sophistication, and because of such specifications, they are very popular amongst buyers. In around Seventy (70) countries of the world, Toyota has launched its cars which are available to be sold in the markets.

Among the many categories of Lexus, one is the Lexus RX Hybrid, which has been being sold in the market since 2005. It was first premiered in 2004, and was the first luxury hybrid car in the world.

Before Lexus RX Hybrid launch, there have been two (2) variations of Lexus RX Hybrid. The model for first generation was launched in the beginning of 2005, which was available for the buyers in the United States, and its sale was continued till 2008. The RX 400 H was also an element of this series. The RX 450 Hybrid is their latest series and which was first premiered in 2008, but in reality it is a model to be launched in 2010.

The RX 450 H has many features that make it stand apart from the previous models as well as other hybrid cars. Being a hybrid, it has a dual engine system, which is known as the Lexus Hybrid Drive. In this system, there is one traditional gasoline engine powered by fuel, supported by two electric engines. One electric engine is for the front wheels and the other for the rear wheels. On slow speeds, the car can run entirely on electric engine, which provides fuel economy along with an environment friendly drive.

The RX 450 H has a strong engine, which gives it an amazing performance on the road. It can go from zero to sixty miles an hour in just 7.2 seconds, which is highly impressive. The car has 295 horsepower and 234 of torque which make driving it an exciting experience. The 3.5 litre V6 engine runs on the Atkinson cycle for added efficiency as it uses less fuel.

The RX comes with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), which features various driving modes for different requirements. It comes with both Eco Mode and EV Mode drive options, apart from the standard driving option. When the car is in EV mode, it can drive on electricity alone for a certain speed while the Eco mode maximizes fuel efficiency. It provides amazing fuel economy while driving in urban areas, and reasonable on highways, where it provides around 28 miles per gallon. This is much better mileage than previous Lexus versions.

The interior of RX 450 H is equally impressive. The padded seats are very comfortable and heated, and the interior features, such as the navigation system and Bluetooth, are very user-friendly. The car has an exhaust-heat recovery system to reduce engine warm-up period, as well as a cooled exhaust gas-recirculation system to give fuel economy. The car also has state-of-the-art safety systems such as the Pre-collision system, anti- lock brakes and visibility enhancing devices, which make its safe ride even safer.

RX 450 is not good for being only eco-friendly but its extra ordinary features make the car and its drive superior to the older versions of the car. - 21396
