2010 Lexus RX 450h Makes 30 MPG Combined
It turns out the 2010 Lexus RX 450h will end up with better EPA fuel mileage estimates than the preliminary numbers we reported in the first drive. Specifically, the front-drive RX 450h has achieved the all-important 30-mpg combined figure against 32-mpg city and 28-mpg highway ratings.
The all-wheel-drive 2010 Lexus RX 450h has a 29-mpg combined rating against 30-mpg city and 29-mpg highway figures.
Given that the RX 450h weighs a whopping 450 pounds more than the outgoing RX 400h, which was rated 27/24 in front-drive configuration and 26/24 with AWD, these numbers are rather impressive.
ffpower says: With this and all the positive reviews, the new RX is looking better and better.

daaayum! I'm 26 and I might have to buy one as a family car (might need one soon).
this pretty much destroys the german diesels (ML bluetec, X5 35d).
ML bluetec only gets 21mpg and has only 210 horsepower. 450h has 295 horses and gets 30mpg? that is some serious ownage!
