Lexus has announced a new package of accessories for the RX450h hybrid. Based on the mid-range SE-I spec, the Lifestyle model adds roof rails and a rear bumper protector, plus front and rear underbody guards.

Inside there is a boot liner designed to cope with muddy boots, plus a refrigerated cool box that can also keep food and drinks warm when temperatures plummet.

Lexus claims that the additions would cost up to £1,500 when specced individually, but the RX450h SE-I Lifestyle is on sale now for £48,899, £499 more than the standard SE-I model.

Bad idea

I honestly don't think that a hybrid SUV would cope as well off-road as a normal one, whatever engine it has.

Lexus Lifestyle

Sorry, I am against these "Hybrid Cars" it has been proven time and time again they are NOT more economical, in fact they cost MORE to run. This latest offering is purely to boost flagging sales IMO.
If the car did what Lexus claimed then sales would rocket.
Sadly many companies have jumped on the bandwagon with this idea and are not finding out they have all been CONNED with the "Global Harming Fallacy".
Come on guys wake up.

Hybrid = Illogical

Since all the energy comes from the petrol, how does charging a battery and lugging it around, as well as driving the wheels normally, make for better economy than a conventional car?
