I have owned the RX 400h since late April. I like just about everything about this SUV. It is a lot of fun to drive and it performs terrifically. Passing on the interstates is a breeze even at high speeds of greater than 80mph. It takes off like a "rocket". It is very quiet and comfortable. But most of all, I am elated with the gas mileage I am getting. The average mpg in the city has been better than the EPA estimate of 31. In fact, on one test recently, I averaged a whopping 40 mpg on pure city driving of 27.5 miles. This was without the AC on but I am still amazed. Obviously, one cannot drive like a hot rod to get this type of mileage. I get about 27-28 on the highway. Coasting helps a lot.

The car has much more power at all ranges than I expected -- unbelievably quick. It's also incredibly quiet and holds the road really well. Great build quality and fit and finish. I've even getting about 27 mpg in my first few hundred miles, and it apparently improves after about 5,000 miles. It's perfect.

This is the best car I've ever owned regardless of price. It's quick, smooth and extremely solid. I'm getting over 25 mpg on my first tank of gas driving at normal speeds on both highway and city. This is a great vehicle.

I have had my RX 400h for nearly 3 weeks and I have fallen completely in love with it. I have driven just over 1,000 miles and I am still on the original tank of gas I got when I drove it away. The operation is seamless. What fun to be able to drive in luxury and save gas at the same time.

BAD MPG

This SUV should not be called a Hybrid. It does not do well on MPG. Not even close to the Sticker info.
