New IS Series
Yes the IS will be in dealers in Sept, no spec's yet
As for the GS 450 it will NOT have 2 electric motors. It will be the first ever rear wheel drive hybrid. It will use the 3.5 V6 and it WILL be the fastest Lexus yet 0-60.....all I can say for now.

Depends on if you consider the rear-drive Chevy Silverado "Hybrid" a true hybrid. It basically shuts the gas engine off at stops and not much else...it does not run on true electric power.

i can't even wait for the unveiling myself
The Geneva show just wetted my appetite. The GS450h and the IS350 on the turntables. These are two mean machines and a real wake up call to the Old Country. Audacious and delicious. We are told that the IS250/350 will arrive in October to celebrate Octoberfest! Happy St. Patricks Day everybody on CL........
