	2007 Lexus GS 450h 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT) Reviews. Sedan Reviews by CNET.
		The other main cabin-based tech system in the GS 450h is dynamic radar cruise control, which uses a radar-based sensor to enable drivers to set a vehicle-to-vehicle distance between themselves and the car in front.
		There's no doubt that the Lexus GS 450h is a hybrid: even if you miss the Hybrid logo on the rear footplate, the cabin instruments leap out to remind you that this is no ordinary leather-and-red-walnut-trimmed Lexus interior.
		The GS 450h is rated by the EPA at 25mpg highway/28mpg freeway--one of the closest sets of figures we have seen and due to the car's ability to use entirely electric power in town.

	Cartype : Lexus GS 450h
		Lexus is proud to bring you the world's first luxury hybrid sports sedan, the remarkable GS 450h.
		The Lexus GS 450h is available in the spring of 2006.
		Therefore, Lexus seems to be riding an environmentally conscious luxury curve, and the GS 450h's capabilities of returning EPA figures in the high 20s - equivalent to that of a compact sedan powered by a conventional 2.0-litre inline-four - should make it quite popular at the country club.

	usnews.com: Auto reviews: Lexus GS 300 (8/8/05)
		Mileage for the GS 300 ranges from 21 mpg/city to 30 mpg/highway, and for the GS 430 ranges from 18 mpg/city to 25 mpg/highway.
		Lexus's new GS sedan is one of those cars that's particularly dangerous for leadfoots: Even when you push it up to 80 or 90, the GS is so smooth and silent that it feels as if you're out for a leisurely boulevard cruise.
		The GS is for high achievers who have nothing to prove and simply want everything about their driving experience to go right.

	RALLYE \| Lexus GS 430
		When the GS was first introduced in 1993, it was intended as a splash of scarlet in Lexus' inoffensive sedan lineup, as well as being Japan's answer to German sport sedans.
		The 2006 GS 300 was also redesigned in an effort to appeal to semi-cost conscious buyers wanting a blend of sport and luxury.
		Following established Lexus standards, each gauge, button, wheel and lever is clearly identified by easily read words or symbols, and the three-pod analog instrument cluster's white-on-fl graphics can be grasped at a glance.

		Lexus GS: talking performance and technology; Lexus is redescribing and redefining itself—or, said another way, it is launching vehicles that will be distinctively, visually "Lexus." The first articulation is with the GS sport sedan
		Although Lexus has been doing exceedingly well in the market, taking the top luxury position in the U.S. market for the past five years running (setting a record in '04, with 287, 927 units sold), in the mid-luxury sports sedan segment, the brand isn't performing nearly as well as BMW and Mercedes.
		One factor that may play well for those who are looking at a car in the mid-luxury sport sedan category is that the third-generation GS is, according to Clements, "the fastest Lexus ever built"--with a 0 to 60 time of 5.7 seconds.

	2006 Lexus GS 430 Review
		The third-generation GS is a technological tour de force that points to future directions for all Lexus cars, not only in looks but in materials and sophisticated electronic control systems as well.
		Lexus has a motto that goes as follows: ``Anticipate a customer's needs and desires and meet or exceed them.'' This refers not only to the expected (and unexpected) comfort and convenience elements, which are designed to do just that, but additionally in the GS 430, elements of ride, handling, and vehicle control.
		Lexus is no longer the newcomer in the sports-luxury field, it is a serious competitor, and the new GS 430 is a fine example of a contemporary sports-luxury car.

		This latest Lexus hybrid is based on the all new GS platform, and for all intents and purposes, it's just the same as any other GS sedan.
		As we said, the GS 450h was designed to be a sports tourer first and an economy car second, so don't hop into one of these and expect to get 60 miles to the gallon.
		The heart of the GS 450h is a 3.5 liter V6 mated to a permanent magnet electric motor, which work in together to send their combined 339 horses to the back wheels.
