Learn the benefits and luxuries of a hybrid SUV below!

The RX 400h is the industry's first hybrid luxury vehicle. An ingenious hybrid drivetrain pairs a 3.3-liter V6 engine with electric-drive motors. The RX 400h offers the acceleration of a V8-equipped SUV, but with the mileage and low emissions that only a hybrid can offer. The innovative technology behind the Lexus hybrid system utilizes a combination of gas and electricity. The seamless integration is all managed by intelligent electronic control systems. You will never have to plug in the RX 400h. Every time you apply the brakes, and during coasting, kinetic energy is captured and the battery is recharged. The RX 400h has been given a Super Ultra-Low Emissions Vehicle (SULEV) rating. With standard leather-trimmed interior, six-disc CD auto-changer, power moonroof and 18-inch alloy wheels, the RX 400h minimizes compromise.

Technology
The innovative technology behind the Lexus hybrid system utilizes a combination of gas and electricity. At slow speeds it’s powered by electricity. When accelerating, the gas engine engages, allowing both power sources to work together. At higher speeds, the gas engine is primarily used with the electric motor(s) providing assistance when needed. But don’t worry, this seamless integration isn’t something you have to pay attention to. It’s all managed by intelligent electronic control systems. The complementary nature of the hybrid system also leads to significantly reduced emissions. Not surprisingly, the RX 400h has been given a Super Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle (SULEV) rating. And lastly, you will never have to plug in the RX 400h. Every time you apply the brakes, and during coasting, kinetic energy is captured and the battery is recharged. This eliminates the need for any external charging. With this cutting-edge technology, we are indeed one step closer to perfection.

Performance
You might not expect a hybrid to have the power of a performance sedan, but through innovative technology, the 268-horsepower2 hybrid system pumps out the acceleration of a V8. The ingenious RX 400h is also one of the first Lexus vehicles to offer intuitive Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM).3 While cornering in the onset of a skid situation, this feature helps the driver keep the vehicle in control by adjusting the speed, throttle, braking and steering of the vehicle. With the adaptive front headlamps, you’ll meet every curve in full light as the low-beam headlamps pivot in accordance with your vehicle’s speed and the direction you are turning. This innovative thinking makes the RX 400h the discerning driver’s hybrid.

Safety

speed to help provide an appropriate level of occupant restraint. Similarly, the advanced front passenger’s dual-stage airbag uses occupant sensors to determine if a deployment is appropriate, and crash severity sensors to determine whether to deploy the airbag at higher or lower speeds. The RX 400h also features front seat-mounted side airbags that are larger than conventional side airbags and designed to help protect the torso, abdomen and pelvis. And rounding out this comprehensive system are front and rear side curtain airbags with rollover sensors and a driver’s knee airbag. Of course, as impressive as it is, the RX 400h’s airbag system is one feature we hope is never needed.
