A hipper hybrid
The NX300h offers the familiar Lexus hybrid technology in an exciting new body.

THE big news about the Lexus NX may be its uncharacteristic 2.0-litre turbocharged engine but, as expected, the familiar petrol-electric hybrid version of this new compact crossover remains the silken choice.
The turbocharged NX200t will cost less than the NX300h hybrid, so the Japanese luxury carmaker expects an 80:20 split in worldwide sales of the stylish sport-utility vehicle.
But with more than 16 years' expertise in petrol-electric hybrid technology behind it, the NX300h offers a clear attraction.
