Toyota’s luxury car brand Lexus has commenced the deliveries of its fifth-generation five-seater luxury SUV - RX 500h F SPORT Performance.
Showcased first at the Auto Expo 2023, RX 500h F SPORT Performance comes at a starting price of ₹1.18 crore (ex-showroom).
It is powered by a new hybrid electric drivetrain which not only promises quick acceleration but enhanced performance too, i.e., it comes with a 2.4-liter inline-four-cylinder engine with a powerful, self-charging electric motor to deliver 366 horsepower (HP) and it sprints from 0-100 km/hr in 6.2 seconds.
With good fuel economy, the hybrid technology mitigates range anxiety by effortlessly switching between electric and gasoline modes, according to a statement.
Lexus India offers an impressive 8-year warranty on the HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle) battery.
