Lexus Reviews

JULY 2009

Lexus ES 350
Focusing on reliability, convenience and comfort, this entry-level luxury sedan shares the same platform as the Toyota Camry but with more refinement. A sleek daily commuter, the ES 350 is soothing on the road and quiet inside, where it features heated/ventilated seats, a panoramic glass roof and a navigation system.

Lexus HS 250h
This reasonably priced and roomy hybrid luxury sedan, largely based on the Prius, is nimble and quiet on the road, capable of up to 35 mpg fuel economy. Creature comforts abound, however, including leather-trimmed seats, Bluetooth hands-free, voice-command navigation, and a fifteen-speaker premium sound system.


JUNE 2009

Lexus IS 250C
This aerodynamic four-passenger convertible boasts an all-weather three-piece hardtop and an assortment of accessories, such as a feature-packed audio system. Under its hood is a 204-horsepower V6 engine, which balances decent acceleration with reasonable fuel economy.

Lexus GS 450h
Unusual to its class, this quiet-driving luxury sports sedan balances raw performance with a hybrid powertrain, and is capable of accelerating to 60 mph in just 5.3 seconds. Inside, the GS 450h exhibits a posh leather trim; powered, heated and ventilated front seats; and a ten-speaker premium sound system.


JANUARY 2009

Lexus RX 350
Showcasing the classic qualities of a Lexus, such as a profoundly isolating cabin, this feature-loaded SUV is comfortable and agile on the road.

Lexus GX 470
Designed with off-road expeditions in mind, this rugged, mid-sized SUV features a full-time four-wheel drive and a robust 4.7-liter V8 engine. Yet, in spite of its ruggedness, this eight-passenger tank is able to keep its riders comfortable with a well-appointed and quiet interior.


JANUARY 2007

Lexus IS 250 AWD
It might be the smallest Lexus, but the IS is just as meticulously crafted as the flagship LS. It's also the sportiest offering in the Toyota luxury division's garage, with a high amount of driver involvement. It costs a pretty penny, however, and its tiny, coupe-like back seat could discourage some buyers.


DECEMBER 2006

Lexus LS 460L
No other manufacturer puts as much emphasis on quiet, luxurious comfort as Lexus (well, except maybe Rolls-Royce), and the LS is the pinnacle of their achievements. Some may find it a little soft around the edges, but there is no doubt this long wheelbase model will provide many serene, carefree miles.


NOVEMBER 2006

Lexus GS 450h
By adding two electric motors to a 292-horsepower gas V6, Lexus has created a great balance between high performance and fuel economy. While ripping from 0 to 60 mph in just over five seconds, we still averaged an impressive 22 mpg in our week with the GS.


AUGUST 2006

Lexus ES 350
This is a car designed with a specific purpose in mind: providing a quiet, comfortable and completely isolated environment for the driver. It's super luxurious and there's not a drop of sportiness to be found, but that's exactly how quite a few people like their cars.


MAY 2006

Lexus SC 430
This elegant, precision-crafted jewel from Lexus is still special after four years on the market. A rock-solid retractable hardtop, regal build-quality and torquey V8 provide a classy automotive experience come rain or shine.


JANUARY 2006

Lexus RX 400H
The luxury that comes from a Lexus finally couples with hybrid technology for a classy, clean SUV.


NOVEMBER 2005

Lexus IS 350
“The fastest car in its class,” the IS comes powered with 204 hp on the 250 and 306 hp on the 350. Both models have V6 engines, but drivers of the 250 can option for all-wheel drive.
