I think Lexus SUVs are all show and no go... If I got a SUV it wouldn't be a Lexus...

the new gx470 is pretty cool, i wonder if it can be supercharged, like the 4runner(same platform) and the lx470 is awesome. id take either of these over an escalade or a navigator

^^ Now that's incentive to look into a Lexus SUV...
So when is this hybrid coming out? I've always thought my next car after my IS would be a hybrid... but the technology isn't stable yet so it's better to wait for more vehicles with it first... more choice.

Lexus or any other SUVs are not meant for racing...IF you're looking for a fast car dont get an SUV.

Lets see your IS climb a rocky hill.. lolz..

^^ Oh yeah... 275hp instead of only 230. Its gonna be expensive though... Close to hundred thousand dollars. Wouldn't you rather buy an X5? or Infiniti QX56?

The RX330h actually have gas mileage like a mid-size car instead of a SUV.

X5/QX56 drink gas like there's no tomorrow.

^^ But they have way more power don't they? I just wish the Rx would have as much power as the other SUVs in its class.

the QX56 is built off the Titan, which isnt in the same class as the RX, you're thinking of the FX45...

i love the FXs, but i dont think the hybrid will be THAT expensive...

a couple thousand more than a "normal" RX330 seems feasible...
