Default Problem with power loss

Hello guys.
I have a problem with my GS450h 2006 for a year, and nobody can solve my problem.
It's about the fact that the car is cold when there is no power until it reaches 150 kw with the revolutions it should have, when it reaches the working temperature everything works normally, as long as it does not get warm again, if I drive it normally, everything is ok but if I drive it faster then it starts to lose power again up to 150 kw. At that moment when it starts to gushed, the start and the hybrid battery is empty, it comes to a single purple dash, then it takes a lot of time to fill it, I have to reduce the speed and slowly drive it to fill it.
I thought it was up to the battery so I replaced it, I replaced the high-pressure pump, replaced the coolant sensor, the pump in the gearbox, the air flow meter, the gas station. Again the same problem. Do any of you know what the problem is? Please help me. Thank you

Wow, you've spent a lot of money replacing likely good parts that were not causing the problem. I suggest that you take it to a dealer and get a proper diagnosis before you waste any more money guessing at what is wrong.

My friend has the same car, so I transferred things from his. I went to the Lexus Service, they told me everything was ok, because the car does not have a single mistake, and I know it has a problem.
