Default AMS reports 5.1 sec sprint to 100Km/h for 600h

Auto-Motor-und-Sport, high profile German autopress publication that brings us correct future model renderings and info all the time had small article about upcoming 600h.
They said that combine output will be 500hp and it will need 5.1 sec to reach 100kph. Fuel consumption is still unkown.

This means that 600h would hit 60 under 5. That is fast!! What a monster!!!

On a side note it is really interesting that Lexus US for GS450h claims 5.2 sec to 60mph while Lexus Europe claims 5.7 to 100kph. That is a difference of half a second...

I think it will be quicker than the GS450h, making sub-5sec 0-60 runs.

But that's not what this vehicle is about.

Lexus could achieve those times with the 5.0L V8 alone

0-60 in 5.1 seconds is scary fast, indeed.

V12 performance in the LS 600h L!
