Finally a move in the right direction! With the popularity of H2s and Excursions with their 7 and 8 liter motors and sub-10mpg efficiency, this is great news! I just hope they make it stylish enough for people to buy. I know the 55mpg will attract many buyers. Hell I would definitely drive one as a secondary commuter car!

What about this RX330 with the "Hybrid Synergy Drive" that promises four cylinder fuel economy with V8 acceleration? I'd buy a GS with that engine if Lexus produces a hybrid that goes 0-60 in sub 6 seconds like is rumored.
