Lexus has announced U.S. pricing for the 2010 HS 250h, which is regarded as the world's first dedicated hybrid-only luxury vehicle. The standard version starts at $34,200(plus $875 for delivery), while the Premium model at $36,970.
Considering the price, it’s clearly that the 2010 Lexus HS 250h is positioned at the entry-level sector of the luxury sedan market. Comparing to Toyota's own Prius and its biggest competitor, the Honda Insight, the price of the 2010 HS 250h seems higher. However, things become different when considering of the fuel efficiency. Prius is rated at 51mpg city/48mpg highway while HS 250h gets 35mpg city/34mpg highway rating.
Under the hood, the HS 250h gets a 2.4L four-cylinder, rated at 147 horsepower. Combined with the electric motor, total output is 187 horsepower. Although most high-tech engines require high-test gasoline, the HS 250h is fully capable of running on 87 octane.
One great feature of the HS 250h we would like to mention is that, 30 percent of the HS’ materials are derived from plant-based materials, with 85 percent of the car being fully recyclable – including the batteries. Green enough! Meanwhile, the HS’ .27 drag coefficient and heavy use of spoilers and diffusers help overall efficiency.
With a nameplate of luxury vehicle, the HS 250h is available with a range of options, including the new Remote Touch controller also found in the 2010 Lexus RX, which simply aren't avalable on the Prius. The HS 250h is also the first vehcle to offer Lexus' Enform with Safety Connect telematics system. LED taillights, a heads up display, power seats and Lexus’ new Enform telematics are also available. Optional equipment includes satellite navigation with traffic, stocks, sports and weather updates and LED headlights.
