With a 5.0L V8 AND an electric motor, 500HP
If it does have AWD like Rockville claims, this will be a most perfect
car if it can be made reliable.
My guess for the price : 95K fully loaded and I won't be able to afford it

440hp should be good enough ... but the torque ratings with the electric motor... shoud be even better!

quoting rocville from the 3gs forum, he got notes saying that the 600hl will be based on a 5L v8
man, if that's true, then i think we have to rework our math

i have said for a long time now...my estimates are
HP = 450 hp
0-60 = 4.5 seconds
unfortunately, lexus will probably only tell us it is going to be above 400 hp at the press conference since it is still a year from launch

460hp...I'm optimistic but I doubt hp figure for the LS600h will be released. Just that it's over 400hp.

Have you seen XeroKool's estimation ?
He based that on the previous speculative(now less so) reports of a 5.0 litre in the LS600h, & comes up with 441 hp

I'll go with 440 hp.
350 : 272 hp for ES (and perhaps GS), 306 for IS.
400h : 268 hp (it went down; lower than expected)
450h : 339 hp (it's lower than expected, compared to 460)
460 : 380 hp
600h : ???

Yes, what he listed (292 hp) is the hp of only the detuned gas engine in the GS450h.
Gas engine + electric motor = equivalent of 339 hp for the GS450h.
