#2 of 2334 next hybrids... by mrvadeboncoeur Nov 07, 2003 (9:54 am)
The Lexus RX330 SUV will have an AWD hybrid version (with the Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive) coming out next year (2004). Toyota is supposed to come out with the Highlander cousin shortly afterwards.   Ford has been pushing back the release date on the hybrid Ford Escape SUV, but they're claiming summer of 2004 also.   Hey, the automakers have to start somewhere...
#3 of 2334 yeah finnaly by dlrecords Nov 11, 2003 (3:42 pm)
I think I spelled that word wrong but u know what I mean. U must admit (if u've been paying attention to this technology) that some invisible force has been slowing the release of the technology. ..from my viewpoint this should be an undenyable fact....and it's not consumer choice, because hybrid is better for economy and performance
#4 of 2334 GM is listening? by dlrecords Nov 13, 2003 (11:06 am)
Looks like GM is taking the logical approach I just read an article that thier first hybrids are going to be the biggest heavy trucks/suvs because that will be the most economical and best for the environment and dependence on foreign oil. WELL thanks for throwing us that bone GM, but WHY do we have to wait til 2007? Are American manufactures that behind? I'd like to believe not and instead believe that ur taking payoffs

Detroit is lazy. Tokyo is not. The second generation Prius is out and on the road, and GM is still having to make excuses about why there hasn't even been a 1st generation Hybrid from them.

That's a bit of an unfair comment, jchan. Conversely, one could claim that Tokyo is lazy because Japan hasn't produced real competitors in the big truck market.
#7 of 2334 well by jchan2 Dec 25, 2003 (9:20 am)
I guess we could agree that Detroit, Tokyo and Seoul have different priorities when it comes to which cars to sell.
#8 of 2334 No they are lazy and paid off by dlrecords Jan 27, 2004 (11:34 am)
Its obvious that Detroit companies have oil interests, why are they so against the CAFE standards, fuel cells promise for the future is all about downplaying the importance of currently available technology.
#9 of 2334 oil interests?? by kirstie_h HOST Jan 28, 2004 (5:24 am)
That's a pretty big claim. Couldn't it be that innovation and re-tooling are expensive, and they won't/can't spend the money it takes?

Lexus 400h on display at the auto show. They wouldn't let us get any closer! Replies to this message: vauvrille (Apr 19, 2005 6:29 am)

It looks the only different (exterior) is the foglights location when compared to RX330. Anyone know the production date, pricing and specification? I read something about the V8 hybird engine with 270 hp.
