It is hybrid and gets excellent gas mileage.
They do not make this model any longer, but I love my car. It handles well, has terrific gas mileage and is easy to park. It is comfortable to drive.

Hybrid makes my car relaxingly quiet and saves me a lot on gas money.
Very comfortable leather seats with heating and cooling, reliable to a fault ( I have only changed filters and oil and so do not know to much of its inside), hybrid so I save so much on gas, and lastly it has a sleek non Prius exterior that looks great, not sporty but sleek.

Cool compact, technology driven car.
Very modern car with a lot of great technology function, very good on gas, my only complaint would be very expensive repair fees, but the car is very durable so I have had to get much work done yet just the usual maintenance. My car also sits very low to the floor so it is not a good winter car if you get snow in your area.

My first and amazing Lexus car.
My car has no problem at all and it is really comfortable. I save a lot of gas since it is a hybrid car. The features of the car are really cool and easy to use. Performance of the car is perfect. I have used this car for 5 years and there has not been any problem.

The maintenance is expensive! Luckily I got the extended warranty.
My hs250 is reliable and comfortable. I love driving it because it is got a sporty look with a smooth luxurious ride. It is 4 cylinder so the pickup is not as fast but overall a great car.

Great gas mileage and very reliable.
Gas mileage. Not so stylish. Would like it if it looked like more modern models.

Amazing mpg for commuters that also makes for a smooth ride and luxurious finishes.
Amazing commuter car. Great gas mileage with the CVT hybrid transmission. Just wish trunk could accommodate a full size spare.

You get value for your money. Mileage is pretty good.
Pro: I love the mid-night black exterior and interior. Fuel performance is good and it comfortable to drive on short/long trips. Fits 5 persons. Cons: fuel performance went down when someone hit me in back. The back row is a tight fit with 3 people. Outside noise too loud. But regardless of the cons I Love, love, love to drive it.

2010 HS 250h
My 2010 HS 250h had been a amazing car, I figured I would replace my Prius for something more luxurious and was a excellent trade off, I have owned the car for almost 3 years and now 155,000 miles. Extremely reliable but the only problem and it is a big one is the faulty piston rings that are causing the car to consume more oil, so I'm disappointed that Toyota made a mistake manufacturing these engines and will cost big bucks to repair.

Lexus- not as good as BMW.
Even though this is the daily driver, it is the least fun of all the cars we have. It gets the worst gas mileage, it always needs maintenance and I feel the driving experience is meh, not comfortable, and computer problems usually are also frequent in popping up.

Looks great, is dependable, and gets great gas mileage!
I like the look, and comfort, and gas mileage. I don't like the lights, as it's hard to see at night. I also don't like that the back seat doesn't go down.

Features for Lexus HS 250h
This is a sleek looking car. There are a number or features that are offered for this make and model. A few premium features the car I own are that it has heated and cooled seats, Bluetooth compatibility, USB port and aux cable, 12 w charger port, leather seats.

Expensive family vehicle!
It's really good with gas mileage however the car maintenance is very expensive. A oil change is 100 dollars. I love the leather interior and the heated seats but they are hard to clean. Tires are expensive too. Overall it is a good vehicle to purchase

My car is very compact but big.
There are not many problems, with my car, but if I were to bring one it is the usage of the map. My car has a car navigation and it is used frequently, but the usage of the map is very hard. The mouse is very hard to use so if there are settings that would be helpful. But everything else is awesome. Love my car.
