Hybrids Dominating Lexus Europe Sales


While Lexus may need a huge advertising campaign to bring awareness to their hybrid model range in the US, it couldn’t be any different in Europe, where hybrids are accounting for a major percentage of vehicles sold.

In 2007, 38% of all Lexus sales in Eastern Europe were hybrids, up from 26% in 2006, and it’s even more impressive when broken down model by model. Hybrids made up 86% (!!) of the total RX sales and 55% of all GS sales. And even with its mid-year introduction, 56% of LS sales were for the LS 600h.

As a point of comparison, only 17% of RX sales and 10% of LS sales in the US were hybrids, though the LS is a special case, as the non-longwheelbase version of the LS 600h is available in Europe.

I was considering hauling a camping trailer with my 2010 Lexus RX450h and was interested in talking with others who may have had this experience please?

    My recommendation would be to talk with your dealership -- they're the best resource for questions like this.

How big is the price differential for Lexus hybrids in Europe compared to the US?
